UBIROADS 2009
===========
2st IEEE International Workshop on ITS for an
Ubiquitous ROADS
http://www.ieee-giis.org/Workshops/ubiroads2009
co-located with IEEE GIIS 2009
http://www.ieee-giis.org/
Tunisia
Submission: May 07, 2009
Workshop: June 26, 2009
=====================================================================
UBIROADS 2009 workshop Overview
The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) program is a universal
initiative whose objective is to add information and communication
technology to transport infrastructure and vehicles. It aims to manage
different factors in order to improve safety and comfort to
drivers/passengers, and reduce transportation times and fuel costs.
With the advances in wireless communications technology and positioning
systems many applications could become a reality.
ITS topics are attracting more and more academic and industrial players.
The goal of UBIROADS'2009 is to offer a unique forum to bring together
researchers and professionals from academia, government and industry to
share and discuss ideas, visions, applications and new results related to
ITS issues.
Relevant topics
----------------
Topics of interest for this workshop include but are not limited to the
following:
1. Wireless transmission: physical layer, RF level technologies for ITS
communications, radio resource management, media access control
and QoS support in ITS, antenna technologies for ITS
communications.
2. Integration: embedded systems for ITS, system architectures, network
architectures, cross-layer designs in ITS communications, real-time
issues, sensors for ITS.
3. Networking: vehicle-to-vehicle V2V communications,
vehicle-to-infrastructure V2I communications, Vehicle-to-Person (V2P)
communications, algorithms and protocols for ITS and VANET,
Internet access.
4. Simulation/emulation: models of traffic, scenarios and models of
simulations for the road, emulation tools for ITS.
5. Experimentations: experimental platforms and testbeds for ITS,
demonstrations, projects reviews, work-in-progress reports.
6. Security: authentication issues, PKI, distributed key management in
VANET, confidence in VANET.
7. Applications: business models, active safety applications,
passenger-oriented applications, new services for VANET, Advanced
and Distributed Driver Assistance Systems, impact on road
safety.
