Nowadays novel embedded computing devices enable vehicles to form large scale mobile peer-to-peer networks in which they can assist each other to improve their driving experience. Therefore context-aware communication is considered to be vital for inducing inter-vehicular intelligence between groups of vehicles with similar interests. However, traditional network addressing schemes are not well suited for group-based communication in large scale vehicular networks. The classical network paradigms of multicasting and broadcasting to define groups are too limited. First, there is no way to optimize network traffic based on the contextual characteristics of the nodes. Second, the groups of nodes are highly dynamic with vehicles randomly joining and leaving multiple groups. We propose an information dissemination approach based on context grouping in which only relevant information is shared among nodes. We evaluate our approach in a large scale vehicular network where groups are formed based on the location and shared interests of the nodes. The experiments show that by inducing our context-based grouping mechanism we can significantly eliminate irrelevant information and reduce overall network traffic in a scalable way.
