    Recent improvements in vehicular ad hoc networks are accelerating the realization of intelligent transportation system (ITS), which not only provides road safety and driving efficiency, but also enables infotainment services. Since data dissemination plays an important part in ITS, recent studies have found caching as a promising way to promote the efficiency of data dissemination against rapid variation of network topology. In this paper, we focus on the scenario of roadside unit (RSU) caching, where multiple content providers (CPs) aim to improve the data dissemination of their own contents by utilizing the storages of RSUs. To deal with the competition among multiple CPs for limited caching facilities, we propose a multi-object auction-based solution, which is sub-optimal and efficient to be carried out. A caching-specific handoff decision mechanism is also adopted to take advantages of the overlap of RSUs. Simulation results show that our solution leads to a satisfactory outcome.
