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界、工业界和政府代表，旨在确定下一代网络交通系统的研究挑战和机遇。网络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。网络交通系统可能会使交通运输更可持续、更有弹性、更公平、更高效，但这只有在正确的基本见解帮助其设计、部署和管理的情况下才能实现。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效益。几乎所有的交通方式都出现了快速的技术革新，这使当今时代成为交通运输系统充满活力的时期。随着网络交通系统的日益复杂，决策科学和交通科学界之间的融合变得至关重要。本次研讨会的目的是创建一个论坛，在这个论坛上，网络控制社区和交通科学界可以开始就该领域的最新进展以及阻碍当前和未来网络交通系统研究进展的核心挑战交换想法和观点。研讨会将包括来自各个领域领先学者的一系列演讲和小组讨论，以及代表行业和政府的参与者的简短观点。主题包括i)如何在组件相互连接和日益自治的时代控制运输系统；Ii)了解数据驱动模型和决策工具在交通系统中的作用，这些系统需要安全、有弹性和公平；iii)认识到人类在网络交通系统中的重要作用。这些谈话和讨论将被用作最终报告的基础，该报告将被发表，并与参与网络交通系统研究的研究团体分享。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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.
