Abstract
Recently, various applications for VANETs have been proposed and smart traffic violation ticketing is one of them. On the other hand, content-centric networking has been emerged into VANETs and named as VCCN. However, the existing applications in VANETs are not suitable for VCCN paradigm due to the dependency on a named 'content' instead of a current host-centric approach. Thus, we still lack in the emerging and new architectures for VCCN applications including automatic issuance of the violation tickets. In this paper, we therefore, propose a Traffic Violation Ticketing (TVT) system for VCCN that enables a cop vehicle (CV) to issue the tickets to the offender(s) autonomously, once they are in the transmission range of that CV. In addition, we provide a road map of future research directions for enabling safe driving experience in future cars aided with VCCN technology.
