Green ITS 2011 - Workshop on Greening urban mobility with applications of Intelligent Transportation Systems (Green ITS)

In the 21st century about 90% of the population growth will be in urban areas. These will account for 60% of the population and 80% of the wealth. Hence, the future patterns of energy demand will increasingly be determined by urban networks. Transportation operations, both passenger and freight, typical account for almost 50% of urban energy use. Within this challenging context, Intelligent Transportation Systems provide new and innovative ways for the reduction of transport induced emissions and the facilitation of green urban mobility. The objective of this workshop is to disseminate the best research results from cross-disciplinary researchers working on Intelligent Transportation Systems towards the achievement of greener urban mobility systems.
Submissions of papers related to all aspects of Intelligent Transportation Systems for green urban mobility - including passenger, freight and multimodal transport - are welcome. Both novel theoretical approaches and practical, real world applications will be covered. Papers with the following emphasis are of particular interest:
? Eco-friendly mobility systems
? Environmental friendly dynamic traffic management
? Green Info-mobility
? Cooperative systems
? Real-time data collection and processing
? Simulation models and computational issues
? Embedded applications
