Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Intelligent Systems are a key pillar in state-of-the-art research and technology to improve the quality of life of all citizens.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) are the foundation of advanced transportation, infrastructure and networks and ensure sustainable, safe, fast and comfortable movement of people and goods in smart cities and communities.
Intelligent Decision Making Systems are at the root of advanced methods for decision and policy making and are augmented by Machine Learning (ML) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools and technologies.
The scope of this Special Issue is to elaborate novel solutions in augmented Intelligent Decision Making, e.g., based on ML and NLP, and in the planning and design of urban road networks, motorways and transport hubs, e.g., ports and parking areas, within the framework of ITS, Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) and smart cities, thus empowering consciousness and improving decision/policy making in the above areas.
This Special Issue aims to bring together theoretical and empirical studies aiming to enhance system sustainability, intelligence, safety and security, while reducing the environmental, social and economic impacts.
We invite papers that address (but are not limited to) the integration of augmented Intelligent Decision Making, augmented policy making, ITS and C-ITS in dynamic transport and traffic systems, traffic management, traffic congestion, logistics and supply chain management, smart cities and communities, safety and security, communications, digital data management (big data and IoT) and environmental and health impacts.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
