Abstract
The Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) is one of the transport topics in the “Mobility and Transport” project of the European commission (EC), which deals with the traffic management, safety and efficiency among many target transport mode. It applies information and communication technologies like computers, electronics, satellites and sensors to improve our transport system day-by-day. These technological possibilities require us to rethink design, implementation and deployment of existing technologies in different transport modes like road, air, water, and rail to provide new services for passengers and freight transport. Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is one of the key technologies of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), which helps in road safety, efficient traffic management, fleet management, logistics and transportation. The objective of this talk is to give an overview of the implication of different technologies and placement of VANET in transportation and specifically in logistics. An overview of the current projects regarding VANET for safety and non-safety applications and additionally discussion on current and potential domains in logistics in which new applications can improve efficiency.
