TL;DR: Some achievements of HT-ITS in Taiwan are discussed, including ITS information and communication platform, traffic dynamics simulation platform, driving safety assistance systems, and intelligent control technologies applied to next generation smart vehicles.
Abstract: In the 21st century, the mainstream of technology development is the interdisciplinary integration, together with the human-centered technologies (HT) that emphasizes on friendly service for human rather than the forced adaptation by human. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS), an integrated discipline of sensing, controls, information technology, electronics, communications and traffic management with transportation systems, represents a typical human-centered large-scale and highly complex dynamic system. It is aimed to provide the traveler information to increase safety, efficiency, and reduce traffic jam, therefore a more humanistic transportation system. Accordingly, new research topics emerge. Specifically, increasing machine intelligence (machine IQ), human-in-the-loop control system technology (human-centered control), human-based intelligent dialogue interface technology (human-based interfacing), vision and communication supported and enhancement systems (smart vision, smart networking), human physical conditions detection and intelligent control technology (intelligent control), multi-agent for large-scale systems to support information analysis (large-scale system analysis). This paper discusses some achievements of HT-ITS in Taiwan, including ITS information and communication platform, traffic dynamics simulation platform, driving safety assistance systems, and intelligent control technologies applied to next generation smart vehicles. Some experimental demonstrations of advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) and advanced vehicle control and safety systems (AVCSS) on Taiwan iTS-1 are also included.

TL;DR: Some issues that need to be considered by all researchers during the stage of analyzing the problem evaluation in order to efficiently enhance information dissemination and successful deployment of VANETs are discussed.
Abstract: Exchanging information efficiently between vehicles or between vehicles to infrastructure is a keystone to successful deployment of vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) This information is required by safety applications to work properly So, this helps to promote foresighted driving which aim to provide a comfortable, safer and more efficient traffic flow and this is realized by means of vehicle-to-vehicle or vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X) communications including inter-vehicle communication that expands the horizon of drivers and provides alerts of possible dangerous situations ahead in time In order to achieve a widely spread of V2X communications in the near future, where information can be reliably disseminated among vehicles in proximity with low latency using adaptive beaconing and transmission range approaches, a number of challenging issues have to be addressed This paper discusses some issues that need to be considered by all researchers during the stage of analyzing the problem evaluation in order to efficiently enhance information dissemination and successful deployment of VANETs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the potential of self-driving cars to transform the 21st century in the same way that mass-produced automobiles transformed the 20th and propose a number of policies to prepare the way for autonomous vehicles.
Abstract: Partially autonomous vehicles that can take over some driving functions, such as steering and speed control, are on the market today. Highly autonomous vehicles that can drive themselves in most situations should be available for sale in less than a decade. Fully autonomous vehicles that won’t even have an option for a human driver will be available within a decade after that.Such autonomous vehicles will transform the 21st century in the same way that mass-produced automobiles transformed the 20th. Auto travel will become safer. Congestion will decline if not disappear. People who can be productive rather than endure the stress of driving will look at travel in an entirely new way. Eventually, mobility will be available to everyone, not just those who have a driver’s license.Considering the technology available today and what experts think will be available in the near future, Congress and other policymakers should consider the following steps: Congress should stop funding expensive and obsolete rail transit projects, which will have no place in a future likely to be characterized by widespread sharing of self-driving cars. Congress should end the mandate for states and metropolitan planning organizations to write long-range transportation plans, as planners cannot predict the effects of autonomous vehicles and are likely to instead impose obsolete systems and designs on their regions. The National Highway Safety Traffic Commission should not mandate that vehicle-to-vehicle communications be installed in all new cars, as such devices will rapidly become obsolete, while voluntary devices in the form of smart phones that can use vehicle-to-vehicle applications are already in use by more than half the adult population. State and local governments should focus on maintaining existing infrastructure and making cost-effective improvements, such as dynamic traffic signal coordination, to alleviate today’s safety and congestion problems. The best thing state and local transportation agencies can do to prepare the way for autonomous vehicles is to cooperate in the development and use of consistent road striping, sign, signal, and similar standards that can be read by autonomous vehicles. By reducing congestion, autonomous cars may lead to a revival of inner cities, but by reducing the cost of travel, they may also lead to more rapid exurbanization. Cities and states should not try to restrict either trend.

TL;DR: This paper identifies and presents different safety technologies used in modern motor vehicles and builds a common understanding of the asset that cooperative systems and new safety features provide in road transportation and later create a proper environment for their deployment on European roads.
Abstract: The increasing need for human mobility is one of the indicators of wealthy society and economic success of human behaviour. Development of transportation in all its sectors is also connected with the evolution of society. Negative aspects caused by this development are the occurrence of road accidents, energy efficiency and traffic congestions. The response to these major challenges cannot be limited to traditional measures. It is important to present and evaluate the impact of intelligent vehicle systems on road transportation safety. Therefore, it is necessary to change and modify the current situation that would lead to decrease in number of accidents that occur on the roads every year. Number of accidents is a good safety indicator. This paper identifies and presents different safety technologies used in modern motor vehicles. Use of such technologies and vehicle to vehicle communication as a part of cooperative systems is crucial in achieving this goal. The aim is to build a common understanding of the asset that cooperative systems and new safety features provide in road transportation and later create a proper environment for their deployment on European roads.
