Abstract EN
Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is turning out to be one of the first impressive examples of Internet of Things (IoT).
In IoV, the factors of connectivity and interaction/information dispersion are equally important as sensing/actuating, context-awareness, services provisioning, etc.
However, most of the researches related to connectivity and interaction are constrained to physics of signaling and data science (semantics/contents), respectively.
Very rapidly, the meanings of these factors are changing due to evolution of technologies from physical to social domain.
For example, Social IoV (SIoV) is a term used to represent when vehicles build and manage their own social network.
Hence, in addition to physical aspects, the social aspects of connectivity and information dispersion towards these systems of future should also be researched, a domain so far ignored in this particular context.
In this paper, an agent-based model of information sharing (for context-based recommendations) of a hypothetical population of smart vehicles is presented.
Some important hypotheses are tested under reasonable connectivity and data constraints.
The simulation results reveal that closure of social ties and its timing impacts the dispersion of novel information (necessary for a recommender system) substantially.
It is also observed that as the network evolves due to incremental interactions, the recommendations guaranteeing a fair distribution of vehicles across equally good competitors is not possible.
