Abstract

Gateway discovery in vehicular networks is very important in order to permit the connection to the Internet or to heterogenous networks. Fault tolerance, load balancing, and QoS are very important aspects to enhance the performance of the network and the satisfaction of the clients. None of the existing gateway discovery protocols for vehicular networks has been designed while taking into account these aspects at the same time. In this paper, we propose our fault tolerance, load balancing, and QoS based service discovery protocol for vehicular network and we prove its correctness.
