DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Content-based information dissemination has a potent
 ial number of applications in vehicular networking\, including advertising
 \, traffic and parking notifications \nand emergency announcements. In th
 is paper we describe a protocol for content based information disseminatio
 n in hybrid (i.e.\, partially structureless) vehicular networks. The proto
 col allows content to “stick” to areas where vehicles need to receive 
 it. The vehicle’s subscriptions indicate the driver’s interests about 
 \ntypes of content and are used to filter and route information to affec
 ted vehicles. The publications\, generated by other vehicles or by central
  servers\, are first routed into the area\, then continuously propagated 
 for a specified time interval. The protocol takes advantage of both the i
 nfrastructure (i.e.\, wireless base stations)\, if this exists\, and the d
 ecentralized vehicle-to-vehicle communication technologies. We evaluate ou
 r approach by simulation over a number of realistic vehicular traces based
  scenarios. Results show that our protocol achieves high message delivery 
 while introducing low overhead\, even in scenarios where no infrastructure
  is available.\n\nBio: Ilias Leontiadis is a PhD student at University Col
