The International Workshop on
Connected Vehicles and Vehicular Networks
Announcements
The
2013 International Workshop on Connected Vehicles and Vehicular Networks is to
be held in conjunction with the 2013 World Cybermatics Congress (IEEE
iThings/CPSCom/GreenCom 2013), Beijing, China, August 20-23, 2013.
About
Connected
vehicles and vehicular networks have been identified as a key technology for
increasing road safety and transport efficiency. In recent years, vehicle
infrastructure integration technology attracts a great amount of attentions,
and it can also bring inestimable economic value, and will play an important
role in the next generation of intelligent transportation systems and
communication network development.
The
goal of this workshop is to present and discuss the recent advances in the
connected vehicles and vehicular networks. The related technologies, which are
generally referred VCS (Vehicular Communication Systems), include
vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-vehicle communications etc. They can be
realized based on short- and medium-range communication as well as on cellular
systems. The workshop will cover all vehicular wireless networking aspects
using a variety of wireless communication techniques, such as WiFi, Zigbee,
Bluetooth, DSRC, WiMAX, 3G, LTE.
The topics not only cover the design and implementation of connected
vehicles and vehicular networks, but also include applications on intelligent
transportation systems, vehicle control and safety systems, telematics and
infotainment systems.
