Everyday, vehicles transit in a city and along their trajectories, they encounter other vehicles. The frequency of these encounters is influenced by many factors, such as: vehicle speed, destinations, traffic conditions, and the period of the day. However, these factors are justified by the public roads limits and the driver's behavior. The people present daily routines and similar behaviors that have a great impact in the daily traffic evolution. In this work, we present a numerical analysis of real and realistic data sets that describe the mobility of a set of vehicles. Social metrics are computed, and the results obtained are compared to random graphs in the direction to verify if vehicular network presents a social behavior. Finally, we discuss new social perspectives in vehicular networks.
Is it possible to find social properties in vehicular networks?
