Urban mobility has become one of the most challenging issue in urban centers. As a consequence, traffic congestion has become a daily problem. Several Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS) have been proposed to improve overall traffic efficiency. However, these systems inefficiently exchange traffic information, which can lead to network overload. In order to overcome the mobility problem and improve the efficiency in dealing with vehicle traffic, this paper introduces a fully-distributed advanced traffic management system based on opportunistic content sharing, named PANDORA. Simulation results indicate that PANDORA outperforms the assessed solutions in various scenarios, considering different key requirements of ATMS.
