Call for Papers

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

The 9th International Conference on Telecommunications for ITS will be held on October 20-22, 2009 in LILLE (North of France) at Nouveau Siècle congress centre. After Phuket in Thaïland, the conference is returning to France. It will bring together engineers and scientists in the field of New Technology of Information and Communication for Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).

The reduction of the impact of transport on the physical, social and human environment is a key challenge for sustainable mobility and development of urban areas. NTIC for ITS will contribute to the deployment of solutions that aim to optimize the use of existing infrastructures (road, rail, maritime, river), to enhance safety and security, to reduce operating and maintenance costs and to offer new services to customers and staff developing inter modal behaviour. ITST conference and its topics are attracting more and more players, academic and industrial researchers, working on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). The theme of this year event is “NTIC for ITS to increase traffic efficiency and optimize transport modes under safety and security constraints".

Works accepted for presentations and poster sessions of ITST 2009 will be balanced from the academic and industrial research community around the world. There will be keynote speakers and invited papers for plenary sessions. Technical exhibitions and demonstrations will be held in the conference centre. Technical visits will be proposed. We have also invited recognized experts from the ITS community as keynote speakers and presenters to enrich the participation.
