Platooning is an application where a group of vehicles move one after each other in close
proximity, acting jointly as a single physical system. The scope of platooning is to improve …

Vehicle platooning has been studied for several decades, with objectives such as improved
traffic throughput on existing infrastructure or reduced energy consumption. All the time, it …

We describe Veins, an open-source model library for (and a toolbox around) OMNeT++,
which supports researchers conducting simulations involving communicating road vehicles …

In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), cooperation between nodes is needed for proper
performance of safety and traffic efficiency applications. A non-trivial scientific challenge in …

Cooperative Driving requires ultra-reliable communications, and it is now clear that no
single technology will ever be able to satisfy such stringent requirements, if only because …

Recently, vehicle platooning has attracted a lot of attention as one of the promising solutions
to the explosion of vehicle numbers. By exchanging information among vehicles through …

The trend toward autonomous driving and the recent advances in vehicular networking led
to a number of very successful proposals in cooperative driving. Maneuvers can be …

Recent studies have shown that traffic safety and efficiency can be substantially improved by
vehicle platooning, in which vehicles periodically broadcast their kinetic status to neighbors …

Research on Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) has led to quite a number of astonishing
technical solutions that are becoming standard in many application domains affecting our …

We study the problem of platoon formation, trying to optimize traveling time and fuel
consumption based on car-to-platoon assignments. The general concept of platooning, ie …
