2nd IEEE Intelligent Vehicular Communications System Workshop (IVCS'10)

co-located with IEEE Consumer Communications & Networking Conference (CCNC ’10)

 

Aim & Scope

Vehicular communication systems have gained in popularity and importance over the past few years. New research challenges have evolved. Around the world, automobiles and other road vehicles are indispensable for connecting people, delivering goods and services and commuting from one place to another. Much research remain to be done to bring alive the vision of future intelligent vehicular communications applications, which will be supported by vehicular networks. Consumer telematics technologies will be needed to enable drivers to exploit the advantages of next-generation intelligent transport systems. Even as the networks and applications are still in the R&D phase, the consumer communications aspects of vehicular communications are growing in importance too. It is ultimately the consumers (like the car drivers and passengers) that will determine the success and acceptance of vehicular communications systems.

This workshop serves as a leading forum to bring together the researchers and engineers in both academia and industry to exchange ideas, share experiences, and report original work about all aspects of car consumer telematics, communications, networking, security and services. The main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures, algorithms, and applications for intelligent vehicular communication environments. This workshop will also address some leading standardization efforts (802.11p, p1609, TIA TR48, etc.).

Key industrial players (GM, Toyota, Telcordia, BMW, etc.) will be represented at this workshop.

IEEE IVCS 2010 welcomes original papers in the following areas:

• User interface and other consumer aspects of vehicular communications
• ITS car-2-car networks
• ITS car-2-roadside communications
• MAC, routing, QoS, addressing, multicast, TCP protocols
• Congestion Control and Cooperative VANETs
• New application scenarios of ITS vehicular networks
• Mobility and handoff issues
• Sensors & Data Collection
• Content Distribution
• C2C communications
• Intra-car communications
• Traffic and flow control issues
• Info Dissemination; Data organization
• Security issues, architectures and solutions
• Privacy issues and solutions
• Data replication protocols in network partitions
• Different technologies (DSRC, WiMAX, WiFi, 3G/4G, cell phone)
• Application innovation
• 802.11p WAVE ; 802.11s MESH; DSRC
• Implementation/deployment status
• Network Management for C2C

IEEE Vehicular Networks & Applications Workshop

Future Wireless Technologies for Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII)

(IEEE Vehi-Mobi 2010)

 Co-located with IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2010)

23-27 May 2010, Cape Town, South Africa

  

Aims and Scope

Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) has been growing rapidly in importance in the past few years. Even despite the global economic downturn that has hit the car industry hard, research continues in this area, as new technical challenges have evolved that demand research and development. Industry players like the automobile companies, and government agencies, like the US Department of Transportation, are investing heavily in research and development in VII. Technologies and applications for VII are rapidly emerging, and there is an critical need to bring together researchers & engineers, academia and industry, standards, private and public sectors, to exchange ideas.

This workshop is intended to serve as a forum and bring together the researchers and engineers in both academia and industry to exchange ideas, share experiences, and report original work about all aspects of vehicular communications, VANETs, information dissemination, road safety, ITS, emergency services, etc.. The main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures, algorithms, and applications for inter-vehicular communication environments. This workshop will also address some leading standardization efforts (802.11p, p1609, TIA TR48, etc.). Work in progress is also welcome.

Key industrial players (GM, Toyota, Telcordia, BMW, etc.) will be represented at this workshop.

Paper submission

Please, submit your papers through EDAS here.

Papers should be written in English with a standard length of five (5) printed pages (10-point font) including figures, without incurring additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with extra charge if accepted).
