This chapter begins with an overview of the basic notions of partitioning in ad hoc networks as well as a presentation of the best well‐known clustering algorithms. Among the criteria used in the different protocols and clustering algorithms that are presented here, it is worth highlighting: the geographical position, the distance between vehicles, the speed and the average speed within the group and the direction of the movement. The chapter reviews several proposals that are specific to vehicular networks. It presents in detail CONVOY, the convoy formation protocol and its different algorithms. Finally, the chapter deals with a performance study of this protocol via simulations.
