*** Call for Papers ***

5th GI/ITG KuVS Fachgespräch Inter-Vehicle Communication

http://www7.cs.fau.de/fgivc2017/

April 6-7, 2017 Friedrich-Alexander-Universität, Erlangen, Germany

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: March 3th, 2017

MOTIVATION: Inter-vehicle communication (IVC), the management and control of network connections among vehicles as well as between vehicles and existing network infrastructure, is a maturing research field that is gaining a massive momentum. First standardization efforts across all layers, by both IEEE and ETSI, have already borne fruit, allowing researchers to gain valuable insights into both the strengths and the shortcomings of current approaches. The U.S. Department of Transportation decided to introduce IVC until 2020 using IEEE 802.11p, while in Europe the decision is not met yet. The investment of European automobile manufacturers and OEMs into this idea is not only expressed in successful efforts to reserve dedicated radio spectrum harmonized across Europe, but is also reflected in numerous research ventures in cooperation with academia. However, the gathered knowledge is still fragmented, making it hard for new players to get into the game and affording even experienced groups only a restricted view on this complex field.

The goal of this year's event is to give an interdisciplinary overview on recent research activities in the area of inter-vehicle communication (IVC) including results and work in progress. One guiding theme of this 5th GI/ITG KuVS Fachgespräch Inter-Vehicle Communication is, but not limited to "Connected Mobility". Moreover, contributions addressing standardization activities, field trials, and use-cases are very welcome. We invite young researchers and their experienced colleagues to discuss about technologies, methods, and innovative mobility applications.

Topics of Interest (not limited to)

- Communication architecture, protocols and systems - Channel modeling, modulation and coding - Congestion control and scalability issues - Applications and use cases of vehicular networks - Traffic management and flow optimization techniques - Resource management, sharing and allocation - Connected mobility issues (including vehicles, pedestrians, bikers, and bicyclists) - Autonomous driving - Cooperative safety functions - Electric vehicle applications - Security and privacy issues - Simulative performance evaluation and modeling - Simulation frameworks and tools - Real-world testbeds - Insights from measurement campaigns and field tests
