Track Description:
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) may be defined as a set of
procedures, systems and technologies that allow optimizing the transport
systems for both people and goods. Generally, they are intended to
provide innovative services for different transport modes and traffic
management issues as well as information to users for improving their
travel experience and allowing them a better use of the transport networks.
ITSs are a combination of Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
and automation with Transport Engineering methods and models and they
cover infrastructure, vehicles and users, traffic and mobility
management, as well as interfaces among several transport modes.
In the last years, efforts in ITS researches have been mainly addressed
to facilitate the development of automated/autonomous transport vehicles
(CAV), provide tools and methods for transport service integration
(MaaS) and explore vehicle-sharing (VS) topics.
Connected Automated Vehicles (CAVs) are vehicles capable of detecting
its environment and moving safely with little or no human input. In
principle, such vehicles have the potential to change dramatically the
way people travel and make road transport safer and smoother. Although
CAVs are still prototypes, many researches have been conducted in this
field, covering both technological and transport management issues.
In the Mobility as a Service (MaaS) perspective, intermodal transport
processes are particularly relevant due to the high number of involved
players, which requires constant and timely interactions and information
exchange to achieve transport mode integration. It may integrate both
vehicle-sharing services and transit systems, provide travel choices to
users also in the light of sustainable mobility and facilitate
cooperation among transport operators, which at the end could produce
more efficient transport services.
Vehicle sharing (VS) is an urban mobility service that allows users to
reserve a vehicle (e.g., car, bike) and rent it for a short period by
paying for its use. This service is planned within sustainable mobility
policies, to facilitate the transition from vehicle ownership to shared
use, in order to reduce the need for private vehicle without reducing
the flexibility of their own mobility exigencies. Vehicles are then
considered services rather than consumer goods
In the above perspectives, models, approaches, architectures, systems
and methods for ITS topics are of particular interest for solving both
computational and communication problems and management and planning
transport issues.
The topics, which need to be addressed from the ITS perspective,
include, but are not limited to:
• Blockchain for ITS
• CAV security issues
• Data management
• Informed transport choices
• ITS potentialities for remote and rural areas
• Mobile data for prediction and modelling
• Mobile Edge
• Modelling user behaviour in ITS contexts
• Pedestrian detection and protection in transport automated
environments
• Safety and security
• Service integration
• Shared mobility
• System Interoperability
• The role of ITS in addressing and achieving Sustainable
Development Goals
• Transport management
• Trust and reputation in Vehicle-Shared systems
• Understanding user needs and expectations of CAVs
• User acceptance of CAVs
• V2V
• V2X
