Due to the current developments regarding COVID-19 pandemic, we would like to inform you that in consultation with RSS Conference Permanent Steering Committee, we have decided to postpone the RSS Conference to 08-10 June 2022.
We hope to welcome all attendees at the RSS Conference on the new date and make a successful live conference!
The Conference’s theme this year will be: “Road Safety and Digitalization” aiming to capture all recent trends in road safety emerging technologies, surrogate measures, augmented and virtual reality, big data, modeling and simulation, which are expected to boost global road safety in the coming years. Road safety experts and scientists from all over the world will join forces for a widely open discussion on both traditional and innovative solutions with high potential for traffic safety improvement.
List of Topics
The RSS2022 Programme will cover a wide range of modern road safety topics with emphasis on the role of digitalisation on boosting road safety.
Digitalisation opens great new possibilities for road user support and guidance, evidence based public and private road safety decision-making at all levels. The new digital era offers great potential for seamless data driven procedures from safety problems identification to selection and implementation of optimal solutions.
The RSS2022 Conference will bring together researchers, experts and stakeholders from several multidisciplinary communities that are active in the field of Road Safety; from traffic and infrastructure engineers to mechanical engineers, from psychologists and human factor experts to computer science researchers. Key topics include among others:
- Roadway Design
- Emerging Technologies
- Surrogate measures
- Measures impact assessment
- Human Factors
- Behavioural models
- Distraction and inattention
- Vulnerable road users’ safety
- Fitness to drive
- Hazard perception
- Education and training
- Driving Simulation
- Bicycle and Pedestrian simulators
- Naturalistic Studies
- Advanced Driver Assistance Systems
- Connected and Automated vehicles
- Augmented and Virtual Reality
- Crash causality
- Crash based statistical analysis
- Big data for road safety
- Safety data analytics
- Safety Modelling
- Microsimulation
- Performance Indicators
- Artificial Intelligence
- Machine Learning
Submission Guidelines
Abstracts:
We welcome abstracts on all conference topics that present original research, not published or presented prior to the RSS2022 conference. New Abstracts are due by 28 June 2021 5th July 2021; they are limited to 1 page and should follow the RSS2022 abstract template format. Submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the Scientific Review Committee. Individual abstracts will receive at least two reviews. Abstract review criteria will include:
- Relevance to RSS2022 audience and topics
- Sufficient description of the discussed research to reach a review decision
Call for Full Papers:
Authors will be informed about their abstract acceptance by 6th September 2021, and will be called to submit full papers following the RSS2022 paper template format by 29 November 2021. Please note that full papers must include research results in order to be considered for paper review. On-going studies that present preliminary results at this stage, but can guarantee to present the full results by the conference date, will also be considered for paper review.
Full paper submissions will be peer reviewed by the Scientific Review Committee. Review assignments will be based on area of expertise. Each paper will be assigned to at least two reviewers who will provide feedback on the paper content and recommendations on paper acceptance. Accepted papers will be selected either for oral presentation or poster presentation. Review criteria include:
- Paper structure
- Research methodology
- Originality
- Validity of results
- Scientific contribution
Paper authors will be asked to revise papers based on reviewer comments and submit a final paper for inclusion in the conference proceedings. During submission, authors have various options regarding inclusion in conference proceedings and consideration for special issues.
Important Dates
Submissions will be completed in two phases (initially abstracts and subsequently full-text papers), through the RSS website (nrso.ntua.gr/rss2022), according to the following time schedule:
