Delay-Constrained Routing via Heterogeneous Vehicular Communications in Software Defined BusNet.

As a critical part of public transportation systems, buses driving routinely in urban areas naturally form a bus ad-hoc network (BusNet). Different from conventional vehicular ad-hoc networks, the sparse distribution of buses magnifies the problem of intermittent network connectivity, making it more challenging for real-time routing. In this paper, we first present a novel architecture called soft...
