The integrity of messages in vehicular ad-hoc networks has been extensively studied by the research community, resulting in the IEEE~1609.2 standard, which provides typical integrity guarantees. However, the correctness of message contents…
Utilities face the challenge of responding to power outages due to storms and ice damage, but most power grids are not equipped with sensors to pinpoint the precise location of the faults causing the outage. Instead, utilities have to…
Vulnerable road users (VRUs, i.e. cyclists and pedestrians) will play an important role in future traffic. To avoid accidents and achieve a highly efficient traffic flow, it is important to detect VRUs and to predict their intentions. In…
While automated vehicles (AVs) are expected to revolutionize future transportation systems, emerging AV technologies open a door for malicious actors to compromise intelligent vehicles. As the first generation of AVs, adaptive cruise…
A vehicle's fuel consumption depends on its type, the speed, the condition, and the gradients of the road on which it is moving. We developed a Routing Engine for finding an eco-route (one with low fuel consumption) between a source and a…
Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) are special forms of Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANETs) that allows vehicles to communicate together in the absence of fixed infrastructure.In this type of network beaconing is the means used to discover the…
A well-designed resilient and sustainable urban transportation system can recover quickly from the non-recurrent road congestion (NRC), which is often caused by en-route events (e.g., road closure due to car collisions). Existing solutions,…
To support location-based services, vehicles must share their location with a server to receive relevant data, compromising their (location) privacy. To alleviate this privacy compromise, the vehicle's location can be obfuscated by adding…
Among the available communication systems, vehicular networks are emerging as one of the most promising and yet most challenging instantiations of mobile ad-hoc network technologies. The deployment of such networks in large scale requires…
