A NetBSD-Based IPv6/NEMO Mobile Router

Overview This paper defines the problem statement of vehicle-embedded networking in order to communicate with the infrastructure (the Internet) as well as with other cars. Based on this problem statement, the paper explains the steps that allowed to build a mobile router addressing this problem by using state of the art software. This software includes the NetBSD-current kernel and networking code developed by the Japan-based WIDE project working groups: the KAME IPv6 stack with SHISA extensions for Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) and Network Mobility (NEMO) support, and the Zebra-based OLSR daemon with IPv6 extensions allowing for a Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) and NEMO cooperation, formerly known as MANEMO.

RFID-tagged driverless cars on roads by 2056

The Foresight report looked at four possible transport scenarios for 2056 ranging from a return to an almost tribal agrarian existence, dominated by local communities and little travelling, to Minority Report-style high-tech cities with driverless...

Radioactive: Today a jam, tomorrow the open road?

Because the range of a wi-fi link is limited to a few hundred meters, every vehicle also serves as a router, allowing messages to be sent via a multi-hop process to vehicles farther away, otherwise known as mesh networking.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change.
