ITSA 2011 in conjunction with
The 6th International Conference on Future Information Technology (FutureTech 2011)
Workshop Overview
(Download CFP in TXT format)
The development of intelligent transport systems (ITS) brings the promise of improved road safety and comfortable/ infotainment driving environments. Recent advances of wireless vehicular communications supporting vehicle-tovehicle
(V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications have become a cornerstone of ITS. Wireless vehicular communications for ITS is one of the most interesting and active research topics, which is requiring vital efforts from both the industry and the academic.
With the advent of the social computing era, ITSA 2011 aims at reporting the most recent progresses, trends, and concerns in this rapidly growing area. This workshop will provide a forum for participants
from ITS and publish state-of-art research papers. Furthermore, we expect that the workshop and its publications will trigger related research and technology innovation in this important subject.
Topics
Original contributions are solicited in all social computing and network researchs. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications
- Embedded systems for V2I
- Security issues for V2I
- Vehicular electronics and telematics
- Vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-roadside communications
- Intra-vehicle communications
- Vehicle-to-Internet communications
- New trends in VANETS
- Mobility and vehicular traffic models
- Wireless multiple access techniques
- Ad hoc, mesh and sensor networks
- Mobile satellite and positioning systems
- Wireless applications and services
- IP mobility protocol issues for ITS
- Alert, safety, and infotainment communication algorithm issues for ITS
- Bandwidth allocation and resource scheduler issues for ITS
- Addressing, routing, and data transmission issues for ITS
- Security and access control management issues for ITS
- Practical standard development issues for ITS
- Case studies of ITS applications
Paper Submission
There will be a combination of presentations including scientific papers. Prospective authors are invited, in the first instance, to submit papers for oral presentations in any of the areas of interest for this workshop.
Papers must strictly adhere to page limits as follows.
- Full Paper: 8 pages (Max 2 extra pages allowed at additional cost)
- Regular Paper: 6 pages (Max 2 extra pages allowed at additional cost)
- Poster Paper: 2 pages (FTRA Publishing Proceeding with ISBN)
Papers exceeding the page limits will be rejected without review.

Proceeding
All accepted papers will bepublished in the Springer CCIS proceedings (EI and ISTP), which will be indexed by the following services: EI Compendex(Since 2010), ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science (CPCI-S), included in ISI Web of Science, DBLP and Scopus.
Instructions for papers in the Springer's CCIS(Note that the paper format of CCIS is the same as that of LNCS)
- Prepare your paper in the exact format as the sample paper for CCIS. Failure to do so may result in the exclusion of your paper from the proceedings. Please read the authors' instructions carefully before preparing your papers.
- Springer accepts both Microsoft Word and LaTex format in the Lecture Note Series. However, FTRA does not accept the use of LaTex. Therefore, you should use the Microsoft Word instead of using LaTex (The paper will be excluded from the proceeding if you use LaTex). Springer provides the relevant templates and sample files for both PC (sv-lncs.dot) and Mac (sv-lncs) environments.
- Please download word.zip.
If you need more help on preparing your papers, please visit Springer's LNCS web page.
Distinguished full papers presented at the workshop will be recommended for publication in a special issue of the following journals.
- EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking (JWCN) - EURASIP (SCIE)
- Mobile Information Systems - IOS Press (SCIE)
- JoC , FTRA Publising
- IJITCC , InderScience.
- Journal of Information Processing Systems (JIPS) , KIPS (KCIE)
