Unlike existing driving and transportation frameworks, new paradigm shifts
and vertical technological revolution in vehicular services have emerged
toward unmanned driving, automated transportation, and connected and
autonomous vehicles (CAV). In addition to equipping with advanced
environmental sensing/reasoning apparatuses (e.g., high definition (HD)
cameras, three-divisional (3D) panorama videos, point-cloud scanners, or
light detection and ranging (LiDAR) scanners) to facilitate autonomous
driving, the next-generation driving vehicles may also rely on mobile
network infrastructures to achieve ubiquitous and prompt information
exchanges. For example, all-optical indicators (such as turn signals and
brake light on a vehicle, and traffic lights on intersections) may be
replaced by wireless signals through device-to-device (D2D) transmissions.
Vehicles may also exchange their perception data or maneuver plans with
other vehicles, or acquire information (such as 3D scenes at interactions)
from remote cloud servers or road-site units (RSUs) though mobile networks.
To align with this trend, 3GPP has released the service requirements to
sustain the next-generation vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications in
June 2018, which include 28 use cases to involve advanced driving, remote
control, vehicle platooning and extended sensors. To support all these use
cases, the service requirements of V2X may include extremely high
throughput (for 3D panorama videos or point-cloud data), low latency
(maneuver data for platooning), high reliability (control signals for
remote driving), aperiodic transmissions (for emergency trajectory
alignment), and high connection density. Since August 2018, 3GPP has
launched the normative works of New Radio (NR) V2X and enhanced
ultra-reliable and low latency communication (eURLLC) in 3GPP Release 16.
To satisfy these unprecedented V2X requirements, several new features will
be introduced in both academic research and industrial practice, including
new system architecture of V2X (e.g., mobile edge computing, cloud/fog
networks, 3GPP local area data network, network slicing, software-defined
network, etc.), new radio access schemes (e.g., millimeter-wave access,
sidelink transmissions, URLLC, massive connections), harmonization among
various technologies (e.g., point-cloud compression, multi-view video, 3D
vision, environmental perception/cognition, machine learning and artificial
intelligent), and new designs for security. The Internet of Things
evolution has given birth to several new groundbreaking applications, such
as the Internet of Vehicles (IoV), smart cities, and cyber-physical systems
(CPS). The proliferation of IoV-based applications magnifies the importance
and irreplaceability of IoV. Considering the dynamic nature of entities in
the IoV, there are a series of challenges including security, privacy,
decentralization, trust management, and so on. For efficient decision
making, in IoVs, we use Vehicle to Vehicle/Others (V2V/V2X) communication
to complement on-board sensor inputs and provide better services. A key
concern when relying on sensor data is vulnerable to data. Malicious actors
tend to inject false data or alter communication among normal vehicles.

The objective of this workshop is to bring together state-of-the-art
innovations, research activities (both in academia and industry), and the
corresponding standardization impacts of V2X for the next generation
driving paradigm, to understand the inspirations, requirements, and the
promising technical options to boost and enrich activities in the area of
V2X. This workshop will also provide a forum for exchanging ideas and
networking experts/researchers/engineers/students involved in the emerging
field of V2X. We want to collate and publish consolidated research results
focusing on analyzing security and privacy threats, applying cutting-edge
technologies to provide secure and privacy-preserving communications in the
relevant fields. Papers may present advances in the theory, design,
implementation, analysis, verification, or empirical evaluation and
measurement of the area.
