Adaptive geo-fencing with local storage architecture on ad hoc networks

Recently, the growth of communication services and technology make networks essential for our daily life, and mobile user terminals such as a smartphone becomes a major communication tool to access the Internet for obtaining information. Moreover, local information services with geo-fencing can provide adaptive information provisioning to users entering specific pre-defined area according to the user location. However, these services are still trapped in the conventional client/server-oriented services, which generally has lower adaptability to the immediate information dissemination such as traffic information on VANET. As concerns this, this paper proposes a novel information localization method for geo-fencing data dissemination with ad hoc communication.
