The objective of this inter-disciplinary research is to develop new technologies that transform the streets of a city into a hybrid transportation/communication system, called the Intelligent Road (iRoad), where autonomous wireless devices are co-located with traffic signals, forming a wireless network that fuses real-time transportation data from all over the city to support a wide range of new applications.
The objective of this research is to develop theoretical foundations for understanding implicit and explicit communication within cyber-physical systems.
