mobilTUM 2013

Intelligent Transport Systems and Services (ITS) provide a wide variety of solutions to existing transport problems and to the ecological and societal challenges presented by an increasing demand for mobility. With growing capabilities of information and communication techniques, the participants of the mobility system are becoming increasingly connected. A future with high fidelity transport information in a seamlessly connected mobile world for all types of traveler draws ever nearer. In order to respond to the multifaceted character of these developments, science and practice within the mobility domain involve an increasingly broad range of different disciplines. The mobil.TUM conference 2013 will therefore once again serve as an opportunity for international dialogue across disciplines on the latest challenges and achievements in ITS. The conference is organized by the Chair of Traffic Engineering and Control at the Institute for Transportation of TUM (Technische Universität München). It will focus on the various aspects of increasing connectivity within intelligent transport systems.

Topics of interest include, e.g.:
- traveler’s behavior in a connected transportation system, influence of assistance systems
- designing and modeling mobility in a multi-modal environment
- progress in traffic flow theory and modeling of cooperative transport
- new technologies of data collection, data fusion, consistency and quality of information
- cloud computing, internet of things and related theories applied to cooperative ITS
- cooperative traffic control at hotspots, in networks and at special events
- progress in transport system simulation on various scales
- increased automation and self-organization in traffic, competition with public strategies
