Transportation, particularly within cities, has undergone an immense transformation over the past decade. Availability of accurate real-time information and the emergence of transportation network companies have truly redefined how we plan, optimize, and manage our daily travel. The coming decade could completely redefine urban transport. Technologies with 2-3 letter abbreviations - 5G, IoT, EV, AV, TNC - have the potential to disrupt urban mobility as we have known it for the past century.
A key factor behind the disruption is also the emergence of Big Data and ML algorithms that can leverage the above technologies and deliver value to commuters. This workshop's goal is to have all stakeholders to come together and share, debate, and deliberate multiple viewpoints that will shape future smart mobility. We welcome students, data scientists, ML experts, transportation engineers, urban planners, and social scientists working in the industry, academia, or government agencies to participate in the workshop.
The workshop will include a series of invited talks, invited presentations in thematic sessions, tutorials, panel discussions, and poster presentations on state-of-the-art and -practice, running as a single track, that will provide an opportunity for all to listen and discuss in a single room.
Submission Guidelines
We invite researchers and practitioners to a workshop to discuss current trends in data-driven models and algorithms for Smart Mobility. We invite extended abstracts (minimum of 1000 words and maximum of 3 pages) of your on-going original research for presentation at the workshop.
Extended abstracts can be submitted by following this link at on or before August 18th, 2019. The technical program committee shall review the extended abstract and selected abstracts shall be notified by September 18th, 2019. Authors of the selected extended abstracts can submit their final papers (not exceeding 6 pages) by Oct 31st, 2019.
