Original Abstract Submitted

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving latency when establishing peer-to-peer connections between devices. In one embodiment, a method includes, responsive to determining that a connection is to be established with at least one remote vehicle by a subject vehicle, acquiring parameters, from a remote server, that define characteristics of the connection. The method includes performing device discovery and service discovery simultaneously by embedding information about available services within a communication for device discovery. The method includes establishing the connection between the subject vehicle and the at least one remote vehicle according to the parameters.
