Intelligent Transport Systems: a Tool or a Toy?
22.11.2016 - 23.11.2016
The conference “Intelligent Transport Systems: a Tool or a Toy?” will be held at the University of Žilina, Slovakia on November 22-23, 2016. The aim of this event is to bring special attention to the role of research organisations in providing evidence to the policy makers for shaping the right ecosystem in ITS, and to the role of the industry, and in particular small and medium enterprises (SMEs), in delivering innovative, sustainable and interoperable solutions. Particular attention will be given to two important pillars of future mobility: Autonomous driving and Mobility as a Service (MaaS).
The two-day conference is co-organised between the COST Association and the University of Žilina, the latter as European Research Area (ERA) Chair (ERAdiate project) on International Transport Systems (ITS), and is held under the auspices of the Slovak Presidency of the Council of the European Union. It will take place in the context of a new legal framework (Directive 2010/40/EU) that was adopted by the European Union on 07 July 2010, to accelerate the deployment of the ITS across Europe.
