Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) play a key role to develop Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) aiming to achieve road safety and to guaranty needs of drivers and passengers, in addition to improve the transportation productivity. One of the most important challenges of this kind of networks is the data routing between VANET nodes which should be routed with high level of Quality of Service (QoS) to ensure receiving messages in the time. Then, the driver can take the appropriate decision to improve the road safety. In the literature, there are several routing protocols for VANETs which are more or less reliable to reach safety requirements. In this book, we start by describing all VANET basic concepts such as VANET definition, VANET versus Mobile ad-Hoc Network (MANET), architectures, routing definition and steps, Quality of Service (QoS) for VANET Routing, Metrics of evaluation, Experimentation, and simulation of VANETs, mobility patterns of VANET etc. Moreover, different routing protocols for routing in VANETs will be described. We propose two main categories to be presented: classical routing and bio-inspired routing. Concerning classical VANET, main principles and all phases will be overviewed, as well as, their two sub-categories which are topological and geographical protocols. After that, we propose a new category called bio-inspired routing which is inspired by natural phenomenon such as Ant colony, Bee life, Genetic operators etc. We present also, some referential protocols as example of each category.
In this book, we focus on the idea of how to apply bio-inspired principle into VANET routing to improve road safety, and to ensure QoS of vehicular applications.
Salim BITAM is an Associate Professor, Head (2003-2009) of Computer Science for Management Department of Biskra University, Algeria, he is senior member of LESIA Laboratory (University of Biskra, Algeria), and Associate Member of LiSSi Laboratory (Paris-Est University -UPEC-, France). He received the Ing. Diploma in Computer Science from Mentouri University, Constantine, Algeria, in 1999 and the Magister and PhD diplomas in Computer Science from University of Biskra, Algeria, in 2002 and 2011, respectively. In December 2002, he has been an assistant professor and since January 2011 he is an associate professor in Computer Science Department in University of Biskra. Dr. Bitam main research interests are vehicular ad-hoc networks, mobile ad-hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, cloud computing, and bio-inspired methods for routing and optimization. Dr. Salim Bitam has served as a reviewer of several journals such as IEEE, Elsevier and Springer and on the program committees of several international conferences.
Abdelhamid MELLOUK (IEEE Senior Member) is a full professor at University of Paris-Est (UPEC), Networks & Telecommunications (N&T) Department and LiSSi Laboratory, France. He graduated in computer network engineering from the Computer Science High Eng. School, University of Paris Sud XI Orsay, received his Ph.D. in informatics from the same university, and a Doctorate of Sciences (Habilitation) diploma from UPEC. Founder of the Network Control Research activity with extensive international academic and industrial collaborations, his general area of research is in adaptive real-time control for high-speed new generation dynamic wired/wireless networking in order to maintain acceptable quality of service/experience for added value services. He is an active member of the IEEE Communications Society and held several offices including leadership positions in IEEE Communications Society Technical Committees (Chair of The Technical Committee on Communications Software, Leader Officer of The Technical Committee on Switching and Routing). He has published/coordinated five books and several refereed international publications in journals, conferences, and books, in addition to numerous keynotes and plenary talks in flagship venues. He serves on the Editorial Boards or as Associate Editor for several journals, and he is chairing or has chaired (or co-chaired) some of the top international conferences and symposia (includling IEEE ICC and IEEE GlobeCom).
