Inter-Vehicular Communication - From Edge Support to Vulnerable Road Users (Dagstuhl Seminar 21262)

This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 21262 “Inter-Vehicular Communication – From Edge Support to Vulnerable Road Users”. Looking back at the last decade, one can observe enormous progress in the domain of vehicular networking. In this growing community, many ongoing activities focus on the design of communication protocols to support safety applications, intelligent navigation, and many others. We shifted the focus from basic networking principles to open challenges in edge computing support and, as a novel aspect, on how to integrate so called vulnerable road users (VRU) into the picture.
