Summary, in English
In this paper, we investigate the performance of such a distributed algorithm which aims to build a common assessment of the risk level among vehicles to trade off accident risks with road throughput. In particular, we examine how the convergence rate is affected by network size and node density, and also how the error in the algorithm’s output is affected by the rate at which nodes send out update beacons. We develop a variable-rate beaconing scheme in order to find a trade-off between accuracy of outputs and network resource usage. We then formulate this as a more general optimisation problem applicable to other applications or distributed algorithmic prob- lems in highly dynamic distributed systems such as VANETs.
