Abstract :
Vehicle Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) may exhibit different behavior depending on traffic and the time of day. Consider the potential worm attack in time-variant VANET channel, we use measured vehicle traffic data to model VANET worm spreading and patching. We also discuss the contributing factors for the differences observed.
