Description

This volume, "Applications of Advanced Technologies in Transportation" contains the papers presented at the Fifth International Conference on Applications of Advanced Technologies in Transportation Engineering. The papers give a rewarding insight into recent developments and the continuing applications of advanced technologies. Transportation engineering is a field that is changing profoundly as new information technologies and advanced materials are introduced to vehicles, infrastructure, and management processes. The papers cover the following topics: decision support systems for real-time traffic control systems; new technologies for detecting and reacting to roadway accidents or other incidents; automation of vehicles; new technologies for sensing traffic system performance and identifying vehicles; new techniques for traffic prediction that can support real time control and pricing strategies; and applications of geographic information systems.
