Beyond international and cross-fertilization results like joint scientific papers, we aim at developing:

• An architecture for secure and dependable VANETs, highlighting the requirements toachieve both of them simultaneously and employing a cross-layer approach;

 

• A set of algorithms, mechanisms or protocols supported by UMPMs and tacklingsecurity and reliability issues on physical, link and routing layers of the protocol stack;

 

• A set of analytical and simulation models, to make ease the evaluation of solutionsproposed on this project;

 

• At least, 2 conference papers per year, 2 papers submitted to Journals at the end of the project, 2 Technical Reports reporting about results from the collaboration.
