TL;DR: An onboard autonomous intelligent cruise control system which controls a vehicle's speed according to the driver's desire and the speed of and distance to the preceding vehicle is discussed.
Abstract: An onboard autonomous intelligent cruise control system which controls a vehicle's speed according to the driver's desire and the speed of and distance to the preceding vehicle is discussed. The system offers a one-directional short-range system for vehicle-vehicle and roadside-vehicle communication and considerations for recommended speed, limits, and traffic signals. It is a potential key element in linking and integrating the driver-vehicle-infrastructure in future intelligent transportation systems. Two field trials undertaken to determine the feasibility of the system are described. >

TL;DR: The Volpe National Transportation Systems Center's proposed model-based framework for assessing the impacts of Advanced Traffic Management Systems, Advanced Traveler Information Systems, and Advanced Public Transportation Systems techniques on congestion, vehicular emissions, fuel consumption, and safety is described.
Abstract: This paper describes the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center's proposed model-based framework for assessing the impacts of Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS), and Advanced Public Transportation Systems (APTS) techniques on congestion, vehicular emissions, fuel consumption, and safety. The framework will integrate selected ensembles of planning, traffic simulation, and benefit estimation models to assess the potential short- and long-term impacts of IVHS implementations.

TL;DR: A subset of advanced technology call boxes, employing a variety of communications networks and embedded microprocessors, are currently undergoing an FHWA-sponsored field operational test in San Diego County, California.
Abstract: Advanced technology call boxes, employing a variety of communications networks and embedded microprocessors, have brought a new level of functionality and extensibility to motorist aid systems. These call boxes have demonstrated a potential for use in several Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS) ranging from traffic census to roadside-to-vehicle communications links. A subset of these applications are currently undergoing an FHWA-sponsored field operational test in San Diego County, California.
