Abstract
The new era of the Internet of Things (IoT) is prompting the evolution of conventional vehicle ad-hoc networks (VANETs) into the Internet of Intelligent Vehicles (IoIV). Different from VANETs, where a vehicle is essentially considered as a node disseminating messages, the emerging IoIV paradigm is expected to regard each vehicle as a smart object equipped with a powerful multisensor platform, unprecedented communication capability, computing units, and Internet protocol (IP)-based connectivity. As such, the vehicles in IoIV are highly efficient in a broad array of vehicular and transportation applications. As a unique subset of general purpose IoT, IoIV can benefit from the existing research on VANET, which lays the foundation toward a more pervasive and ubiquitous communications and networking core that is essential for IoIV. Nevertheless, research in many aspects of IoIV, especially those that are application-driven and data-oriented ones, is still at its infancy.
