Spotlight on RITK-CIT Students: AI-Based Internet of Vehicles research accepted in Springer
A remarkable research collaboration between RIT Kosovo’s Computing and Information Technologies (CIT) program has resulted in a significant academic achievement. Researchers Dea Lika, Dalina Canhasi, and the Department of Computer Science, CHRIST University, Bangalore, India, have made a notable contribution to the prestigious book Internet of Vehicles: Scope and Application of Artificial Intelligent-Based Technologies, accepted by Springer, Singapore. Their book chapter, titled "Data Acquisition and Communication Protocols for the Internet of Vehicles: A Comprehensive Review," offers an extensive analysis of the communication frameworks that power smart vehicular networks.
The research delves into the crucial aspects of data acquisition and communication protocols that underpin the rapidly evolving domain of the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Reflecting on their academic milestone, the authors highlighted their individual contributions to the research. Dalina Canhasi, Lead Research Collaborator and Communication Specialist, played a key role in coordinating the research collaboration, ensuring a cohesive analysis of communication protocols, and examining how artificial intelligence enhances data transmission efficiency in Internet of Vehicles networks. Dea Lika, Lead Technical Analyst, focused on the in-depth evaluation of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication frameworks, assessing their role in optimizing intelligent transportation systems. Their combined efforts resulted in a comprehensive review that advances the understanding of smart vehicular networks. Both expressed their gratitude to their mentors and RIT Kosovo for their unwavering support throughout the research journey.
At RIT Kosovo, the research was conducted under the mentorship of Professor Debabrata Samanta, Program Head and Assistant Professor at the Department of Computing and Information Technologies, whose expertise and guidance were instrumental in shaping the study. Additionally, the authors extend their sincere gratitude to Albina Balidemaj Basha, Dean of Faculty, for her constant encouragement throughout the research process and to Lavon Bajrami, Chief Administrative Officer, for providing the necessary infrastructure that facilitated their study.
This publication exemplifies the strong research partnership at RIT Kosovo, highlighting their commitment to driving technological innovation. The study not only enhances the academic understanding of IoV networks but also serves as an inspiration for future researchers aspiring to develop smarter and more efficient transportation solutions. RIT Kosovo continues to nurture its students’ research potential, reinforcing its dedication to academic excellence and impactful technological advancements
