IEEE VEHICULAR NETWORKS & APPLICATIONS WORKSHOP - IEEE Vehi-Mobi 2009

Future Wireless Technologies for Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII)

Co-located with IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC
2009) <http://www.ieee-icc.org/2009/>
14-18 June 2009, Dresden, Germany


Aims and Scope

Car-to-car (C2C) communication networks, and more generally, Vehicle
Infrastructure Integration (VII) have now gained popularity and
importance. New technical challenges have evolved that demand research
and investigations. Technologies and applications for VII are rapidly
emerging, and there is an urgent need to bring together researchers &
engineers, academia and industry, standards, private and public
sectors, to exchange ideas.

This 1-day workshop is intended to serve as a forum and bring together
the researchers and engineers in both academia and industry to
exchange ideas, share experiences, and report original works about all
aspects of service discovery and composition in ubiquitous and
pervasive environments. The main purpose is to promote discussions of
research and relevant activities in the design of architectures,
algorithms, and applications for inter-vehicular communication
environments. This workshop will also address some leading
standardization efforts (802.11p, IEEE p1609, TIA TR48, etc.). Work in
progress is also welcome.

Technical research papers are solicited in the following areas:

* Network technologies for VII
* New application scenarios of VII
