The general vehicular networking system (VNS), where the vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is integrated with hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), enables a wide range of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications. With different visions on VANETs, most of the existing studies provide case-specific solutions in an incoherent manner, which can hardly be integrated into an effective system. This project aims at developing a reliable, energy-efficient, and secure VNS with a synergetic approach through five complementary research tracks: infrastructure optimization, protocol design for reliable networking performance, energy-efficient VNS, security and privacy provisioning, and virtual-field testbed development. This project is expected to significantly advance the state of the art of VANET research by addressing some fundamental research issues. Analytical models are developed to study the road-side infrastructure deployment, networking protocols and control algorithms for optimal performance, considering the complex issues of mobility, interference, and data traffic dynamics. The throughput-optimal control in a multi-radio multi-channel context with dynamic network topology is studied to improve the throughput over a multi-hop vehicular network. Energy-efficient solutions are pursued by exploiting the interplay between the VNET and HEVs. Scalable security protocols with small computation and communication overhead are developed to provision security and privacy in VANET. The proposed research seamlessly integrates research and education activities in the areas of optimization, probability and random process, graph theory, wireless networking, HEV technologies, as well as computer simulations. The research proposed in this project has a good potential to be transformed into practical protocols or control algorithms for VANETs.

一般的车辆网络系统（VNS），其中车辆临时网络（VANET）与混合动力汽车（HEVS）集成在一起，可实现广泛的智能运输系统（ITS）应用。对于货物货的不同，大多数现有研究都以不连贯的方式提供了特定于案例的解决方案，几乎无法将其集成到有效的系统中。该项目旨在通过五个互补的研究轨道通过协同方法开发可靠，节能和安全的VNS：基础架构优化，可靠网络性能的协议设计，用于可靠的网络性能，节能VNS，安全性和隐私提供，以及虚拟场试验发展。预计该项目将通过解决一些基本研究问题来大大推动Vanet研究的艺术状况。开发了分析模型来研究路边的基础架构部署，网络协议和控制算法，以实现最佳性能，考虑到移动性，干扰和数据流量动态的复杂问题。研究了具有动态网络拓扑的多拉迪奥多通道上下文中的吞吐量 - 最佳控制，以改善多跳车网络的吞吐量。通过利用VNET和HEV之间的相互作用来追求节能解决方案。 具有小型计算和通信开销的可扩展安全协议是为Vanet提供的安全性和隐私开发的。拟议的研究无缝地将研究和教育活动整合在优化，概率和随机过程，图理论，无线网络，HEV技术以及计算机模拟领域。该项目中提出的研究具有良好的潜力，可以转变为货物货车的实际协议或控制算法。
