Managing vehicles on a road network

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, comprising computer instructions which, responsive to being executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• maintaining a list of vehicle parameters including vehicle performance parameters of a plurality of communicating vehicles on a road network;
• representing the plurality of communicating vehicles in a graph with a plurality of nodes corresponding to the plurality of communicating vehicles and edges corresponding to the vehicle parameters;
• partitioning the graph;
• assigning the one or more exclusion zones within the road network to each partition of the graph by associating the one or more exclusion zones with vehicle parameters for each vehicle;
• establishing, based on analysis of the vehicle parameters of the plurality of communicating vehicles, a set of security requirements for additional vehicles to join the plurality of communicating vehicles on the road network;
• and
• wirelessly communicating, with a transceiver, the set of security requirements to at least the additional vehicles.

A system for managing one or more exclusion zones on a road network, comprising:

• a memory storing computer instructions;
• and
• a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, wherein the processor, responsive to executing the computer instructions, performs operations comprising:
• accessing a matrix of vehicle parameters of a plurality of communicating vehicles on the road network,
• representing the plurality of communicating vehicles in a graph with a plurality of nodes corresponding to the plurality of communicating vehicles and edges corresponding to the vehicle parameters,
• partitioning, with a processing device, the graph to reduce disruptions to the road network below a threshold level to support safe and efficient traffic flow,
• assigning one or more exclusion zones within the road network to each partition of the graph by associating the vehicle parameters for each vehicle,
• establishing, based on analysis of the vehicle parameters of the plurality of communicating vehicles, a set of security requirements for additional vehicles to join the plurality of communicating vehicles on the road network, wherein the set of security requirements includes determining whether a vehicle attempting to communicate with another vehicle on the road network supports interfaces used by the another vehicle on the road network,
• identifying geographical boundaries of the road network,
• determining whether the road network should be made geographically isolated based on criteria set by parameters of the interfaces upon which the road network is built, a size of the road network, and a risk factor computed derived from the parameters of the interfaces, and
• causing a transceiver to wirelessly communicate warnings, alerts and fines to vehicles within the one or more exclusion zones that fail to support at least one interface among the matrix of vehicle parameters required to enter and remain in the road network.
