Platooning of cars or trucks is one of the most relevant applications of autonomous driving, since it has the potential to greatly improve efficiency in road utilization and fuel consumption. Traditional proposals of vehicle platooning were based on ...

This paper presents a simple policy to immediately reduce the overall core network's interpersonal voice/data traffic of nearly 15% on average in highly populated urban areas. This remarkable result can be achieved without resorting to complementary radio ...

Several proposals are available in the literature that deal with the problem of message forwarding in Opportunistic Networks (ONs). These proposals attempt to derive the path from source to destination that minimizes delivery latency and traveled hops, ...

This paper describes a novel Android-based opportunistic platform for mobile computing applications. It has the aim to incentive the growth of practical experiences that should give an answer to the following question: can Opportunistic Networks ...

So far, the search for Opportunistic Network (ON) applications has focused on urban/rural scenarios where the combined use of mobility and the store-carry-and-forward paradigm helpfully recovers from network partitions and copes with node sparsity. This ...
