Special Session on Sensor Networks in Intelligent
Transportation Systems
Information technologies have great potential in addressing the enormous challenges of energy shortages and global warming. In particular, a vast amount of global energy resource is spent on transportation systems.
Recent advances in wireless networking and sensor networks will significantly impact the design of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) to make transportation safer and more efficient. Numerous exciting research challenges exist for designing wireless networking and sensor network technologies for vehicle to vehicle, vehicle to infrastructure, and within infrastructure sensing and communication applications.
This special session is intended to provide a forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to share their experiences on all aspects of sensor networks in intelligent transportation systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
sensor networks on vehicles
sensor networks in infrastructures
vehicular wireless networking
security and privacy issues in vehicular and infrastructure networks
network performance modeling and simulation, and
ITS applications involving sensor networks.
Submission Instructions
Authors are invited to submit regular technical papers or position papers. The position papers should present novel technologies at an early stage of development or share future vision. All submissions should describe original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts should not exceed five (5) pages in double-column IEEE format. Please submit the paper through EDAS. Formatting details can be found under Author Information on the CCNC web site.
