Abstract
A method of managing applications of a first vehicle includes establishing, by a processing device of the first vehicle, a first network with a second vehicle in proximity to the first vehicle, receiving, by the first vehicle, a second vehicle identifier (ID) from the second vehicle over the first network, transmitting the second vehicle ID and a first vehicle ID of the first vehicle to an administrative device over a second network, and determining an update compatibility between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on compatibility information received from the administrative device in view of the second vehicle ID and the first vehicle ID.

A method of managing applications of a first vehicle, the method comprising:
- establishing, by a processing device of the first vehicle, a first network with a second vehicle in proximity to the first vehicle;
- receiving, by the first vehicle, a second vehicle identifier (ID) from the second vehicle over the first network;
- transmitting the second vehicle ID and a first vehicle ID of the first vehicle to an administrative device over a second network;
- and
- determining an update compatibility between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on compatibility information received from the administrative device in view of the second vehicle ID and the first vehicle ID.
A system of a first vehicle comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory, to:
- establish, by the first vehicle, a first network with a second vehicle in proximity to the first vehicle;
- receive, by the first vehicle, a second vehicle identifier (ID) from the second vehicle over the first network;
- transmit the second vehicle ID and a first vehicle ID of the first vehicle to an administrative device over a second network;
- and
- determine an update compatibility between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on compatibility information received from the administrative device in view of the second vehicle ID and the first vehicle ID.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processing device of a first vehicle, cause the processing device to:
- establish, by the processing device of the first vehicle, a first network with a second vehicle in proximity to the first vehicle;
- receive, by the first vehicle, a second vehicle identifier (ID) from the second vehicle over the first network;
- transmit the second vehicle ID and a first vehicle ID of the first vehicle to an administrative device over a second network;
- and
- determine an update compatibility between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on compatibility information received from the administrative device in view of the second vehicle ID and the first vehicle ID.
