Abstract:

Overview: The human cost of transportation in the US reaches an unnecessary 33000 fatalities and 2.2 million injuries every year. The inefficiency of road transportation also burdens our economy, with only the cost of fuel wasted in traffic reaching $88 billion a year.

Abstract:

The ongoing research aims to develop rules to study and methods to coordinate a network of fully and partially self-driving vehicles, interacting with conventional vehicles driven by people on a complex road grid, so that overall safety and efficiency of the traffic system can be improved.

Abstract:

As self-driving cars are introduced into road networks, the overall safety and efficiency of the resulting traffic system must be established and guaranteed. Numerous critical software-related recalls of existing automotive systems indicate that current design practices are not yet up to this challenge. This project seeks to address this problem, by developing methods to analyze and coordinate networks of fully and partially self-driving vehicles that interact with conventional human-driven vehicles on roads.

Visible to the public Automated Vehicle Symposium July 15-17 in San Francisco

Submitted by davidk on Tue, 04/15/2014 - 5:09pm

The Automated Vehicles Symposium 2014 (AVS2014), jointly supported by the Transportation Research Board (TRB) and the Association for Unmanned Vehicles International is planned for 15-17 July at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport. The web site is open to registration and quickly being populated with plenary speakers and break-out session descriptions. Check it out: http://www.automatedvehiclessymposium.org/home.

The Symposium is asking researchers to submit abstracts for two poster sessions. The two
