IoV: The Future of Automobiles

Internet of Things is an extension of WSN (Wireless Sensor Networks) in which every WSN is connected via the Internet such that in the end every "thing" is connected to the Internet, which will eventually ensure that the world becomes a "connected village". Any "thing" in IoT should be able to sense, compute and communicate. Of those "things", automobiles are an integral part. That's why this field can be aptly called "Internet of Vehicles". To integrate all these vehicles together and to ensure QoS and QoE for the end users is now a challenging need that is put forth the telecom providers and car manufacturers. This paper surveys on different applications that can be created with vehicles of day-to-day usage.
