Title: Autonomous/Connected Vehicles and Its Implications for IoT based Smart/Connected Cities
Speaker: Prof. Azzedine Boukerche, Canada Research Chair (Tier I) in wireless networking and mobile computing at the University of Ottawa, Canada
Abstract: Recent UN report estimates a continuing population growth and urbanization will add 2.5 billion people to the world’s urban population by 2050 and 2.9 billion vehicles in the world and at most likely two billion of that will be in new emerging developing countries. If you think traffic jam is bad, just wait. As a consequence, in order to be the most livable, sustainable and competitive, Cities around the world are actively experimenting with smart technologies to pave the way for a smart autonomous/connected vehicles and IoT based smart and sustainable transportation systems. This talk will consist in an overview about the major IoT based research projects related to the design of “cognitive” cars and smart roads applications, which we are currently investigating at the, TRANSIT Research and Training Network, DIVA Strategic Research Network and PARADISE Research Laboratory, University of Ottawa. Next, we shall focus on the main challenges, modeling, simulation and design issues and discuss some results obtained recently. Finally, if time permits, we will talk about LIVE testbed, a convergence of distributed simulation, wireless multimedia and vehicular sensor technologies we are developing at TRANSIT and DIVA Research Laboratories for an urban vehicular grid. This testbed will facilitate and enable us to evaluate and design new protocols and applications for future generations of IoT based connected vehicular and sensor network technologies.
Short Bio: Azzedine Boukerche is a Distinguished University Professor and holds a Canada Research Chair position at the University of Ottawa since 2003. He is the Scientific Director of NSERC-DIVA Strategic Research Network and NSERC-CREATE TRANSIT Research Network, and a Director of PARADISE Research Laboratory at uOttawa. Prior to this, he held a faculty position at the University of North Texas, USA. He worked as a Senior Scientist at the Simulation Sciences Division, Metron Corporation located in San Diego. He spent a year at the JPL/NASA-California Institute of Technology where he contributed to a project centered about the specification and verification of the software used to control interplanetary spacecraft operated by JPL/NASA Laboratory.
