The First International Workshop on Wireless Vehicular Networking Technology (VINT-08)

To be held in conjunction with The Fourth Annual International Wireless Internet Conference (WICON 2008)

November 19, 2008, Maui, Hawaii, USA

The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of wireless vehicular networking technologies. Based on short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside), vehicular networks will enable vehicular safety applications including collision and other safety warnings as well as non-safety applications like real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others. The creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, and secure vehicular networks technologies, though, presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community: a high degree of communication reliability is needed under unfavorable channel conditions. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular networks in terms of mobility behavior and applications scenarios and requirements makes vehicular networks research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking.
