Abstract

Vehicular Ad-hoc NETworks (VANETs) is a special form of Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs). The continuous developments in wireless networks have paved the way for the adoption of wireless data exchange for onroad vehicles. The application of VANETs is considered as a key component within the envisioned Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). One of the primary applications of VANETs is to enhance the safety measures for the vehicles on-road. Information about vehicles, such as vehicle speed and location coordinates are passed among vehicles to improve their awareness of each other. In VANETs, vehicles are referred to as nodes within a network where each node can act as both; end devise and router. The current design of VANETs has been identified with several drawbacks, while obtaining high performance in multi-hop message dissemination being as one of the most prominent issues. This problem need a solution to improve VANET's performance, especially over networks with high node densities. In this paper, we propose an ontologybased approach for multi-hop message dissemination over VANETs as a solution that would address the above highlighted issue.
