This comprehensive book delves into the intricate architecture behind the integration of smart cars with vehicular cloud computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), and Vehicle Ad-Hoc Networks (VANET). As technology continues to intertwine with our daily lives, socioeconomic development becomes intricately linked to ever-evolving innovations. One such example is the ongoing challenge of managing the exponential growth in vehicle traffic, leading to increased congestion and road accidents. To address this pressing issue, researchers are developing cutting-edge technologies to optimize traffic management operations.

In this book, we explore the state-of-the-art developments in IoT and cloud computing-based concepts that have been introduced to enhance VANETs, leveraging advanced cellular networks like 5G networks. 5G cellular networks offer unparalleled connectivity, delivering consistent, faster, and more reliable connections within vehicular mobile nodes. By 2030, 5G networks will enable the delivery of virtual reality content in VANET, enhancing vehicle navigation with real-time communication capabilities, improving road safety, and enhancing passenger comfort.

The reader will gain a deep understanding of a range of new concepts in VANETs, their integration with cloud computing and IoT, emerging wireless networking and computing models, and the latest VANET architecture, technology gaps, business opportunities, future applications, worldwide applicability, challenges, and drawbacks. Additionally, the book delves into the significance of 5G Networks in VANET, vehicular cloud computing, edge (fog) computing based on VANET, and other emerging technologies.

This book is a valuable resource for researchers, automotive industry engineers, and professionals interested in advancing the field of intelligent transport systems. Its comprehensive coverage and insightful analysis provide valuable insights into the future of transportation and the role of technology in shaping it.
