AbstractA lot of information can be exchanged on the road using VANET and all of can have a definite purpose. The type of information disseminated in a VANET environment can be used to prevent accidents, avoid chain collisions, notify traffic jams, and anticipate safety vulnerabilities to minimize fatal accidents and increase driver’s safety on the road. Along with advancement in technologies, in the recent years VANET has been used not only to disseminate safety information but also information like commercial advertisements and infotainment services which provide easy accessibility of the resources for the users and hence increasing comfort in their driving experience. To disseminate such information it is required to generate bulk data which is generally of larger size. This study proposes an approach for disseminating such information on the road in an efficient manner so as to ensure safe, improved and easy road experience. Bulk information can be video, audio, large picture files or high quality commercial advertisements. To disseminate such information it is therefore obligatory to learn the characteristics of VANET so as transfer most of the information at a particular condition. This work aims to learn the characteristics of VANET in real scenario and design an efficient framework for information dissemination taking into consideration the characteristics of vehicular ad-hoc networks
