IEEE Vehicular Networks & Applications Workshop

(IEEE Vehi-Mobi 2008)

Co-located with IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2008)

19-23 May 2008, Beijing, China

http://vehi-mobi.must.edu.my

Aims and Scope

--------------

Vehicular communication networks have recently been gaining significant popularity

and importance, primarily to cater to the emerging services involving road safety and

a need for data-on-move. New technical challenges have evolved that demand

research and investigations. In China alone, the recent growth of the automobile

industry and the associated services for transporting people and goods safely and

efficiently would necessitate new research on vehicular networking. Car industries are

of great importance in Asia and the rest of the world. Car markers from Japan,

China, Korea, and India will be key players in car telematics. Much research remain

to be done to bring alive the vision of future intelligent inter-vehicular applications,

which will be supported by Car-to-Car communications and networks.

This workshop serves as a forum and intends to bring together researchers and

engineers from both academia and industry to exchange ideas, share research

experiences, and report original work in all aspects of vehicular communications,

sensors, networks, computing and applications.
