The rapid growth of traffic-related fatalities and injuries around the world including developed countries has drawn researchers' attention for conducting research on automated highway systems to improve road safety over the past few years. In addition, fuel expenses due to traffic congestion in the US translate to billions of dollars annually. These issues are motivating researchers across many disciplines to develop strategies to implement automation in transportation. The advent of connected-vehicle (CV) technology has added a new dimension to the research. The CV technology allows a vehicle to communicate with roadside infrastructure (vehicle-to-infrastructure), and other vehicles (vehicle-to-vehicle) on roads wirelessly using dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) protocol. Collectively, the vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication technologies are known as V2X …
