This book proposes the novel network envisions and framework design
principles, in order to systematically expound the next generation
vehicular networks, including the modelling, algorithms and practical
applications. It focuses on the key enabling technologies to design the
next generation vehicular networks with various vehicular services to
realize the safe, convenient and comfortable driving. The next
generation vehicular networks has emerged to provide services with a
high quality of experience (QoE) to vehicles, where both better network
maintainability and sustainability can be obtained than before.
The framework design principles and related network architecture are
also covered in this book. Then, the series of research topics are
discussed including the reputation based content centric delivery, the
contract based mobile edge caching, the Stackelberg game model based
computation offloading, the auction game based secure computation
offloading, the bargain game based security protection and the deep
learning based autonomous driving. Finally, the investigation,
development and future works are also introduced for designing the next
generation vehicular networks.
The primary audience for this book are researchers, who work in computer
science and electronic engineering. Professionals working in the field
of mobile networks and communications, as well as engineers and
technical staff who work on the development or the standard of computer
networks will also find this book useful as a reference.
