Autonomous vehicle traffic information systems are a relevant topic for next-generation traffic information Systems, as the existing centralized traffic information systems involve a large initial investment and high operating costs. Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) are a compelling application of ad hoc networks, because of the potential to access specific context information (e.g. traffic conditions, service updates, route planning) and deliver multimedia services. Vehicle traffic information systems suffer from many problems such as the need to communicate large amounts of data, requiring a longer time for road network coverage, unsteady transmission, and the need for an automatic generation and update method for road network congestion information in a large-scale urban road network. To overcome these problems, here proposes an agent based information dissemination model for VANETs. Multiagent based information dissemination in VANETs, uses a set of static and mobile agents in VANET agency. This model provides flexibility, adaptability and maintainability for traffic information dissemination in VANETs as well as supports robust and agile network management. The proposed model has been simulated in various network scenarios to evaluate the effectiveness of the approach.
