Selecting data packages received by a host device is provided. The host device receives a number of N data packages. For each data package of the N data packages: a prioritized data package parameter is calculated. The data packages are sorted according to a predetermined sorting-scheme considering at least prioritized data package parameters. A number of M data packages are down-selected from the N data packages, wherein M<N. The one or more of the down-selected M data packages are processed. Accordingly, hardware and software requirements of the host device may be reduced due to a reduced computational complexity.

Method for selecting data packages based on priority during vehicle-to-vehicle communications

An ad-hoc network manager is provided. The vehicle includes a transceiver and one or more controllers of the host vehicle, in communication with the transceiver. The one or more controllers are programmed to receive connected messages from remote vehicles via the transceiver, and execute a message subservice configured to provide, to vehicle applications executed by the one or more controller, one or more events related to the received connected messages.
