Lu M. Evaluation of Intelligent Road Transport Systems...2ed 2024 torrent

Textbook in PDF format

The development of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) began in the late 1980s, driven directly by the automotive industry, and strongly supported by authorities around the world. The technical backbone of ITS is the automotive industry, with the original objectives being to substantially improve road safety, driver comfort, traffic efficiency and energy/fuel efficiency. Since then, ITS Associations have been gradually launched, such as ITS Europe, named ERTICO (European Road Transport Telematics Implementation Co-ordination Organization), ITS Japan and ITS America, followed by many other national and regional associations. The first ITS World Congress was held in 1994 in Paris, France. The congress has since been organised annually, on a rotating basis, in the three regions: Europe/Mid-East, Asia/Pacific and North America. It is the largest technical and commercial event in the domain of ITS. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) hosted its first IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium in 1989 in Tsukuba, Japan, and the first IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference in 1997 in Boston, USA.
