Final call for Papers
The Vehicular Wireless Networks and Vehicular Intelligent Transportation Systems
have recently received much attention. The aim is to improve traffic safety, protect
environment by reducing traffic congestion and fuel consumption, and enable a
plethora of new applications such as mobile infotainment. To facilitate both safety
and non-safety applications, there is a necessity to integrate communications and
computing technologies into vehicular and transportation systems. To facilitate
these applications, many different types of communications and networking would be
involved, including intra-vehicle, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-roadside
(V2R) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications. Therefore, this workshop
intends to foster state-of-the-art research in the areas of Vehicular
Communications, Networks, and Applications through a forum for novel results and
solutions to solve various problems and challenges foreseen in the future.
