IWCTS 2017: 10th International Workshop on Computational Transportation Science Crowne Plaza Redondo Beach And Marina, Redondo Beach Los Angeles, CA, United States, November 7, 2017 |
Conference website | https://udi.ornl.gov/iwcts2017 |

Submission deadline | September 15, 2017 |
The 10th International Workshop on Computational Transportation Science (IWCTS 2017) is particularly timely given the prominence of connected automated vehicles technologies in the global auto industry’s near-term growth strategies, of big data analytics and unprecedented access to sensing data of mobility, and of integration of this analytics into the optimization of mobility and transport. These developments are deeply computational. We will build upon the success of previous workshops to continue to focus on computation, knowledge discovery, and technology aspects of transportation systems while welcoming research papers in computer science, transportation science, urban and regional planning, the automotive arena, civil engineering, robotics, geography, geo-informatics, and other related disciplines.
Important Dates
- Paper submission due: September 15th, 2017 (midnight PT)
- Notification to the authors: September 30th, 2017
- Camera ready papers due: October 10th, 2017
- IWCTS Workshop: November 7th, 2017
- ACM SIGSPATIAL Conference: November 7th – November 10th, 2017
Submission Guidelines
Authors should prepare an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of their full paper. Papers must be in English and not exceed 6-pages double column in ACM SIG format (US Letter size, 8.5 x 11 inches, http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates) including text, figures and references. Position papers are limited 4 pages in this format, and should be marked ‘(Position paper)’ in the subtitle. All papers must be submitted via the EasyChair system, at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iwcts2017.
Accepted papers will be published in the ACM digital library under the condition that at least one author has registered for both the main SIGSPATIAL conference and the workshop, attends the workshop, and presents the accepted paper in the workshop. Otherwise, the accepted paper will not appear in the workshop proceedings or in the ACM Digital Library version of the workshop proceedings.
List of Topics
The International Workshop on Computational Transportation Science invites submissions of original, previously unpublished papers contributing to Computational Transportation Science. Position papers that report novel research directions or identify challenging problems are also invited. Papers incorporating one or more of the following themes are especially encouraged:
- Collaborative transport, including collaborative multi-modal transport
- Computational and artificial intelligence aspects of assisted driving, collaborative transport or multi-modal transport
- Crowd sourcing and participatory sensing in transport
- Cameras as sensors for trajectory acquisition and event recognition
- Computer Vision-based information extraction from image sequences
- Context aware analysis of movement data
- New processing frameworks for handling masses of transport data (e.g. Hadoop)
- Uncertain information in collaborative transport and assisted travelling
- Mechanism design for collaborative behavior
- Data mining and statistical learning for travel information
- Human-computer interfaces in intelligent transportation applications
- Privacy, security, and trust in transportation information
- Novel applications targeted to health, mobility, livability and sustainability
