A new context-aware congestion resolution protocol, minimum calculated desired time (MCDT), for intelligent data dissemination in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is proposed in this paper. In this scheme, the link stability is computed first; then a peak stable zone is constructed, which is used to estimate the virtual connectivity of the nodes. A module for the recovery of lost links using a minimum angle method is also proposed. The proposed scheme can be used for vast industrial applications, where there is a need for contextual-aware information dissemination with less delay and higher accuracy. The proposed scheme is evaluated in different network scenarios by varying the parameters such as velocity and density of the vehicles.
