International Workshop on Communication Technologies for Vehicles

13 October 2009, St. Petersburg, Russia

http://www.nets4cars.org/

Co-located with International Conference on Ultra Modern Telecommunications (ICUMT http://www.icumt.org/) technically sponsored by IEEE.

Important Dates:
Paper Submission: June 15, 2009
Acceptance Notification: July 15, 2009
Camera-ready: August 5, 2009
Workshop: October 13, 2009

SCOPE:

International Workshop on Communication Technologies for Vehicles (Nets4Cars) provides an international forum on the latest technologies and researches in the field of intra-, inter-vehicle communications (protocols and standards), mobility and traffic models (models, methodologies, and techniques), testing, and applications. Further, the overview of ongoing projects and future predictions are of specific interests.
Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of intelligent transportations systems (ITS) and vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) in the framework of the following main topics (not limited to):

• vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-roadside, vehicle-to-Internet communication protocols;
• intra-vehicle communications;
• mobility and vehicular traffic models;
• information collection and dissemination;
• analytical and simulation techniques;
• experimental systems and field operational testing;
• safety and non-safety related applications;
• recent standardization efforts and problems (e.g. 802.11p);
• overview of the activities and status of the ongoing projects;
• deployment strategies and predictions.

The workshop proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore (approved) and indexed in relevant databases. Authors of selected outstanding papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers for consideration of publication in a Special Journal Issue.
