In this paper a novel realistic vehicular mobility model is introduced. It captures the moving-in-groups, conscious traveling, and introduces the concept of smart traveling while following drivers’ social behavior extracted from inquiries and experimental traffic measurements. Under the model, a routing algorithm is considered. The routing algorithm minimizes the distance to a target on a step by step form, in every street crossing. This is done under a hierarchic street level structure that optimizes travel speed and quality. The mobility model was simulated and validated in a real mobility scenario using, as case study, the city of Lisbon. The correlation values (between simulated data and theoretical distributions), arrival to destination success rate and directional statistics produced satisfactory results. The model concept is perfectly generic and applicable to other locations, provided that the corresponding street …
