Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The emerging and promising paradigm of the Internet of Things (IoT) has gained considerable momentum over the past two decades or so and is considered a key technological enabler for the successful realization of a number of application domains. In particular, in the context of smart cities, the recent technological breakthroughs in the IoT and vehicular ad hoc networks, and their intelligent convergence, have transformed vehicles into smart objects, thereby paving the way for the evolution of the promising paradigm of the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Simply put, the IoV is attributed to IoT-on-wheels, wherein vehicles as formidable sensor platforms accumulate and process the flood of data to extract and subsequently broadcast meaningful safety-critical information amongst one another and in their immediate environment via vehicle-to-everything communication for guaranteeing highly reliable and intelligent traffic flows.
This Special Issue of Sensors, accordingly, welcomes original contributions, i.e., both high-quality surveys and technical manuscripts, in a bid to bring forth the opportunities, challenges, and prospects in the IoV landscape. Topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Architectures, frameworks, and protocols for IoV;
- Promising communication technologies for IoV;
- Security, privacy, and trust in IoV;
- AIoV—Artificial Intelligence of Vehicles;
- Intelligent resource management in IoV;
- Big data analytics in IoV;
- Autonomic service discovery in IoV;
- Testbed and simulation tools for IoV.
