Call For Papers:
----------------
The goal of this workshop is to give an interdisciplinary overview on recent
advances in the area of vehicular inter-networking technologies and related
applications. Over the last few years, significant efforts are being carried
out by industry, academia and government agencies to improve driving safety,
increase vehicle traffic efficiency and decrease fuel consumption by exploiting
vehicular communications and networking technologies. These technologies, which
are generally referred to as VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks), include
Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I), Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications and
can be based on short- and medium-range communication as well as on cellular
systems. This workshop will include and solicit contributions addressing
technical and research issues, development projects, standardization
activities, and field trials on VANET technologies and applications. The
objective is to disseminate state-of-the-art results in this highly active
research area, to highlight interdisciplinary challenges in the development of
Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), to share lessons learned from field trial
experiences and to bring together people from both academia and industry, with
the goal of facilitating interaction among them to promote further research
activities and conduct joint research on services such as; advanced traffic
management, safety control, comfort applications and networking and information
services for users on the road. Scope of Contributions: Authors are invited to
submit papers presenting new research results related to the theory or practice
of vehicular communications and applications. All submissions must be original
contributions not published or currently under review for another workshop,
conference, or journal.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Communication protocol design and network management
* Channel modeling, modulation and coding
* Congestion control and scalability issues
* Medium access control protocols
* Multi-channel organization and operation
* Traffic management and flow optimization techniques
* Vehicle or traffic-related smartphone apps
* Safety and non-safety applications
* Vehicle-to-vehicle/roadside/Internet communication
* Simulation frameworks
* Security issues and countermeasures, and privacy issues
* Telematics applications
* Electric vehicle applications
* Networking to reduce energy consumption
* Wireless in-car networks
* Systems that reduce driver distraction
* Real-world testbeds
Paper Submission:
-----------------
Authors are invited to submit full papers written in English, with a maximium
paper length of six (6) printed pages, including figures, tables & references
in IEEE double-column format. Submissions must present original work that has
not been previously published, and is not under review elsewhere. All articles
will be reviewed for scientific quality by the Technical Program Committee and
external reviewers. Papers must be submitted electronically, in PDF format,
on-line via the EDAS system (http://edas.info/N14851). Accepted papers will be
published in the conference proceedings and will appear in IEEExplore. The IEEE
reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference
(e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the
conference, or if the paper proves to be a copy from others (non-original
work), or it is substantially close to other work presented elsewhere by the
same author(s).
