The latest advances in technology and the improvement of decision processes with learning methods based on artificial intelligence have put word "smart" ahead all systems that make human life easier. Based intelligent transportation systems, it is aimed to reduce damage country's economy environment while providing technology-based faster, safer, more accessible, sustainable efficient transport...

This paper focuses on an overview of an autonomous navigation system in maritime transportation that is supplied with intelligent guidance to avoid collision, while respecting the COLREGs rules and regulations and using expert knowledge in navigation for close quarter’s manoeuvres. The proposed collision avoidance process consists of two modules: a fuzzy logic based parallel decision making mod...

As the intelligent railway is the trend of current railway development, the paper aims to show an overview of the Railway Intelligent Transportation System (RITS) in China. Firstly, the current transportation situation in China is given and then some basic concepts of RITS are talked about as well. Secondly, the necessity of RITS is analyzed to show its strategic position. Then, the overall arc...

With the rapid developmentof society, transportation industryis also facing unprecedented challenges, if big data is used in this area, the advantage is obvious, it can resolve the questions of traditional traffic management system, in this article we propose an architecture of intelligent transportation system on big data platform, then we disuse the key technology in ITS:calculation of bayone...

The concept of intelligent transportation has been devised about a couple of decades ago and still presents many challenging issues to be addressed so as it can be implemented to its full potential. In this paper we emphasise characteristics such as being user-centred and service oriented to support an important facet of future urban transportation: being ubiquitous. Instead of seeing ubiquitou...

Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS) is the integration of various pieces of information and computer technologies to the transportation elements in order to obtain a more productive transportation system. The five major components of IVHS are the Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), Advanced Vehicle Control Systems (AVCS), and Advanced Public Transportation systems (APTS). This pa...

In this paper we describe applications, research issues, and approaches related to Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). More specifically, we focus on spatio-temporal databases in urban transportation. We address the issues of trip planning and navigation, abstraction of concepts from spatio-temporal sensor data, mobile peer-to-peer data management, and social networks and crowd-sourcing. ...

Information technology (IT) provides the means to store, manipulate and disseminate massive amounts of data. The integration of IT at all levels of the transportation system creates the “intelligence” in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). But this integration is a long and difficult process of the search for, and the exploitation of, the numerous opportunities in the interconnected set o...
