16th International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems
Intelligent Transportation Systems for All Transportation Modes

The IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems is the annual flagship conference of the IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society. IEEE-ITSC2013 welcomes articles in the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems, conveying new developments in theory, analytical and numerical simulation and modeling, experimentation, advanced deployment and case studies, results of laboratory or field operational test.

The theme of the IEEE-ITSC2013 conference is Intelligent Transportation Systems for All Transportation Modes. Major advances in information and communication technology are enabling a vast array of new possibilities in transportation.

ITS are emerging worldwide to make transportation more efficient, reliable, cleaner and safer. ITS are used in road, water, rail and air transportation to collect information about transportation flows from a multitude of sources and manage them effectively, shifting collective traffic and transportation management paradigms towards end user orientation.
