Self-Driving Cars

Where Is Computing Driving Cars?

Cars offer an excellent example of ubiquitous computing, and a technological revolution is currently underway that will eventually see in-vehicle computers empowered with increasingly complex sections of the driving task. In this article, we critically review the effect of ubiquitous computing in cars with reference to the psychology of the driver and present a survey of automotive researchers ...

Comparison of Architectural Design Decisions for Resource-Constrained Self-Driving Cars - A Multiple Case-Study

Context: Self-Driving cars are getting more and more attention with public demonstration from all important automotive OEMs but also from companies, which do not have a long history in the automotive industry. Fostered by large international competitions in the last decade, several automotive OEMs have already announced to bring this technology to the market around 2020. Objective: Internationa...

Active Optimization and Self Driving Cars

Self driving cars hold the promise of making transportation safer and more efficient than ever before possible. They will also be among the most complex robotic systems ever fielded and thus require an unprecedented level of machine learning throughout to achieve their desired performance. These learners create an everchanging environment for all algorithms operating in the system and optimizin...

Driving the Internet: Mobile Internets, Cars, and the Social

This paper looks at the tandem technologies of cars and the Internet, and the new ways that they are assembling the social with the mobile Internet. My argument is two-fold: firstly, the advent of mobile Internet in cars brings together new, widely divergent trajectories of Internet; secondly, such developments have social implications that vary widely depending on whether or not we recognize t...
