Claim One:
1. A method for real-time crash modeling, comprising: using a processor device operatively coupled with at least one sensor in a parallel computing environment, performing: deriving a likelihood of an impact occurring between a first vehicle and a second vehicle; negotiating a crash modeling protocol between the first and the second vehicle by partitioning the parallel computing environment into partitions between computing nodes representing the first and second vehicles, each partition comprising the variable simulation state for its associated vehicle; and determining an optimal crash sequence that minimizes possible injury and damage by iteratively performing the following within time step boundaries: exchanging information with the first and second vehicles according to the crash modeling protocol, said information comprising a variable simulation state of each vehicle indicating a state of collaborative crash parameters; collaboratively computing a crash model prior to the impact, using the exchanged information, said crash model comprising differential actions for each vehicle to take in order to minimize injury and damage; and exchanging the computed crash model.
