winners of the 2012 Turing Centenary competition, this exciting event
features a number of distinguished speakers from a spectrum of
disciplines. The meeting will be of particular interest to participants
from mathematics, computer science, biology, linguistics, artificial
intelligence, philosophy – extending to those concerned with
computability-theoretic issues in the humanities, arts and social
sciences.

2014 International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (IEEE ITSC 2014)

2014 International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (IEEE ITSC 2014)

“Industry Track” Call for Papers

Full paper/short paper submission deadline        June 8, 2014

Hyatt Regency Qingdao, Qingdao, China

October 8 (Wed) – October 11 (Sat), 2014

http://www.itsc2014.org/

Conference contact: ieeeitsc@gmail.com

The IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems is the annual flagship conference of the IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society. IEEE ITSC 2014 welcomes articles in the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems, conveying new developments in theory and practice, analytical and numerical simulation and modeling, experimentation, advanced deployment and case studies, results of laboratory or field operational tests. It will be held in Qingdao, a beautiful coastal city, home to Tsingtao beer, Mount Lao – one of the “cradles of Taoism”, and numerous scenery & cultural attractions.

The Industry Track of IEEE ITSC 2014 seeks submissions in two submission categories (full papers up to 8 pages and short papers up to 3 pages) to showcase recent advances in ITS research with direct industry relevance, to discuss emerging trends and challenges with practical implications, and to facilitate interactions among academia, governmental or private research agencies, and industry in this vital area of study of growing interests.

All papers submitted to IEEE ITSC 2014 Industry Track will be peer-reviewed. Compared to the main track of IEEE ITSC 2014, Industry Track papers do not necessarily need to contain major methodological advances, algorithmic contributions, or rigorous experimental/computational validation. Rather, the emphasis will be on industrial innovations, clear practical relevance, interesting lessons learned through significant practice, or advanced classes of applications which might open up new opportunities for interesting academic work. Accepted Industry Track papers will be included in the IEEE ITSC Conference Proceedings, which will be published through IEEE Press and will be accessible through IEEE Xplore. The conference proceedings will be submitted for EI indexing through INSPEC by IEEE. Selected papers of exceptional quality will be invited for submission to a special issue of the IEEE ITS Magazine.

Contributions from industry R&D groups, governmental or private research agencies, policy makers, and academia are welcome. Please visit the conference website at http://www.itsc2014.org/ for submission details.

 

Experience with many IEEE events shows that papers presented at the Industry Track tend to draw large audience and generate interesting discussions, and many among them become well-cited work down the road. In addition to regular presentation-based industry track sessions at the conference, we will also organize an all-inclusive Industry Poster Session to encourage exchange of ideas between academic researchers, industry researchers, and practitioners.

Key dates

Full paper/short paper submission due June 8, 2014
Notification of acceptance               July 25, 2014

Camera-ready papers due              August 11, 2014

AIM:

SSTiC 2014 is the second edition in a series started in 2013. For the previous event,
see  http://grammars.grlmc.com/SSTiC2013/

SSTiC 2014 will be a research training event mainly addressed to PhD students and
PhD holders in the first steps of their academic career. It intends to update them
about the most recent developments in the diverse branches of computer science
and its neighbouring areas. To that purpose, renowned scholars will lecture and
will be available for interaction with the audience.

SSTiC 2014 will cover the whole spectrum of computer science through 6 keynote
lectures and 24 six‐hour courses dealing with some of the most lively topics in the
field. The organizers share the idea that outstanding speakers will really attract the
brightest students.

ADDRESSED TO:

Graduate students from around the world. There are no formal pre‐requisites in
terms of the academic degree the attendee must hold. However, since there will be
several levels among the courses, reference may be made to specific knowledge
background in the description of some of them.

SSTiC 2014 is also appropriate for more senior people who want to keep
themselves updated on developments in their own field or in other branches of
computer science. They will surely find it fruitful to listen and discuss with
scholars who are main references in computing nowadays.
REGIME:

In addition to keynotes, 3 parallel sessions will be held during the whole event.
Participants will be able to freely choose the courses they will be willing to attend
as well as to move from one to another.
