Title:
The Why’s and What’s of Vehicular
Communications and a Look Into the Future
Organizer and Moderator:
Dr. Onur Altintas, Senior Researcher,
Toyota InfoTechnology Center, Japan
Panelists:
Prof. Eylem Ekici, Dept. of
Electrical and Computer Engineering, The Ohio State
University, USA
Mr. Donald Grimm, Senior Researcher,
General Motors R&D Center, USA
Dr. Andre Weimerskirch, CEO and
President, escrypt Inc., USA
Abstract:
Vehicular communications has significant potential to
enable diverse applications such as traffic safety,
traffic efficiency and information provisioning.
This area has recently received much attention
from the research community as it poses many new
technical challenges and opportunities. This panel will
overview the current status of vehicular communications
including basic characteristics of such networks, and
will give an update on trials and deployment plans. The
panel will also address technical challenges stemming
from
· · high mobility of vehicles and wide range of relative
speeds between nodes
·
real-time nature of applications
·
multitude of system and application related requirements
·
scale and interoperability of the solutions
·
security requirements associated with the envisioned
applications
Finally
we intend to discuss together with the audience, what
needs to be done next and whether, as the research
community, we are addressing the real problems or we are
devising new problems that are of little relevance to
the requirements of vehicular applications.
