Workshop on Control for Networked Transportation Systems, To Be Held At The American Control Conference, July 8-9, 2019, in Philadelphia, PA.

本次研讨会将汇集领先的学术，工业和政府代表，旨在确定下一代网络化交通系统的研究挑战和机遇。联网交通系统的例子包括共享移动服务、电动汽车及其与电网的集成、近实时电子商务交付和自动驾驶汽车。 网络化交通系统可以使交通运输更可持续，更能适应中断，更公平，更高效，但这只有在正确的基本见解帮助其设计，部署和管理时才会发生。 本次研讨会将确定在真正的智能交通系统出现之前需要解决的研究挑战，并为整个社会带来实际利益。几乎所有的交通方式都在进行快速的技术创新，这是唯一一个将当今时代定义为交通系统充满活力的时代。随着网络化运输系统的复杂性不断增加，决策科学和运输科学社区之间的融合变得至关重要。本次研讨会的目的是建立一个论坛，网络控制社区和交通科学界可以开始交流思想和观点，在该领域的最新进展，以及核心挑战，抑制研究进展，对当前和未来的网络交通系统。该研讨会将包括一系列的会谈和小组讨论，来自各领域的领先学者，以及来自代表行业和政府的参与者的简短观点。 主题包括：i）如何在组件连接且日益自主的时代控制交通系统; ii）理解数据驱动模型和决策工具在需要安全，弹性和公平的交通系统中的作用; iii）认识到人类在网络化交通系统中的重要作用。会谈和讨论将作为最终报告的基础，该报告将与参与网络交通系统研究的研究团体一起发布和分享。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This workshop will bring together leading academic, industry, and government representatives with the goal of identifying the research challenges and opportunities for the next generation of networked transportation systems. Examples of networked transportation systems include shared mobility services, electric vehicles and their integration with the power grid, near-real-time e-commerce delivery, and autonomous vehicles. Networked transportation systems may make transportation more sustainable, more resilient to disruption, more equitable, and more efficient, but this will only occur with the right fundamental insights to aid their design, deployment, and management. This workshop will identify the research challenges that need to be addressed before truly smart transportation systems can emerge and enable practical benefits to society at large. The rapid technological innovation occurring in nearly all modes of mobility is uniquely defining the present time as a period of dynamism in transportation systems. As networked transportation systems grow in complexity, the need for convergence between the decision sciences and the transportation science communities becomes paramount. The purpose of this workshop is the creation of a forum where the networked controls community and the transportation science community can begin to exchange ideas and perspectives on recent advances in the field as well as the core challenges inhibiting research progress on current and future networked transportation systems. The workshop will consist of a series of talks and panel discussions from leading academics in each domain, as well as short perspectives from participants representing industry and government. The themes include i) how to control transportation systems in an age where components are connected and increasingly autonomous; ii) understanding the role of data driven models and decision tools in transportation systems that need to be safe, resilient, and equitable; and iii) recognizing the significant role of humans in the networked transportation system. The talks and discussions will be used as the basis of a final report that will be published and shared with the research communities involved in networked transportation systems research. .This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
