4th International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications: WIVEC2011 5-6 September 2011, San Francisco, United States
The 4th International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications will be held 5-6 September 2011 at the Hilton Union Square, San Francisco, United States, colocated with VTC2011-Fall.
Wireless vehicular communications has been identified as a key technology for increasing road safety and transport efficiency, and providing Internet access on the move to ensure wireless ubiquitous connectivity. The potential of this technology has been acknowledged with the establishment of ambitious research programs worldwide.
The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) currently covers through its areas of interest (Mobile Radio, Transportation Systems and Automotive Electronics) all technical aspects needed to make wireless vehicular communications a reality. As a result, the IEEE VTS society has decided to establish a technical symposium on wireless vehicular communications.
The IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications (WiVeC) covers all vehicular wireless communications aspects of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Person (V2P) communications, including implications on transport efficiency and safety, automotive electronics, liability issues, standardizations efforts and spectrum assignment.
After the successful 2007 (Baltimore), 2008 (Calgary) and 2010 (Taipei) editions, the fourth IEEE WiVeC symposium will be co-located with the 74th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference 2011 Fall conference, and will take place at the Hilton Union Square Hotel in San Francisco on the 5th and 6th of September 2011. Combined registrations packages will be offered for WiVeC and VTC events.
All accepted papers will be included in the VTC 2011-Fall conference proceedings and will be published on the IEEE Xplore database.
--------------------
The WiVec Symposium seeks original papers - not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal - in the area of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-person (V2P) wireless communications. Vehicular communication areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
* RF technologies, antenna design, physical layer and propagation models * Radio resource management and interference management * Spectrum assignment and EMC regulations * Vehicular Networking Architectures * Networking protocols (including ad-hoc communication, routing, geocasting, etc.) and their evaluation * Data aggregation and dissemination strategies * Simulation of Vehicular Communication Systems * Scalability issues in vehicular networks * QoS and cross-layer optimization design * Security, liability and privacy * Testbeds, testing support, and field testing results * Interworking with sensor network technologies * In-car electronics and embedded integration of wireless vehicular communications * Roadside infrastructure * Mobility management, mobility and vehicle traffic models * Digital maps and location technologies * Human-Machine Interface * Applications (eCall, eTolling, traffic information systems, safety applications, wireless diagnosis, etc.) * Standards development, business models, policies * Assessment of impact on transport efficiency and safety
Authors are encouraged to submit full length papers (maximum 5 pages) or demo papers (maximum 2 pages) following the WIVEC2011 template.
