The strong potentials that exist in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) has given birth to the concept of Vehicular Clouds, in which cloud computing services are hosted by vehicles that have sufficient resources to act as mobile cloud servers. In this paper, we propose a protocol that enables vehicles to search for mobile cloud servers that are moving nearby and discover their services and resources. The design depends on roadside units (RSUs) that act as cloud directories with which mobile cloud servers register. We evaluate the performance of our protocol using ns2 and explain through comparing the results to another scheme the feasibility and efficiency of our protocol in terms of service discovery and service consuming delays and packet success ratio.
