IEEE Connected and Automated Vehicles Symposium
27 August 2018, Chicago, USA

With the advances in computing and communication technologies, vehicle technology has entered a new era of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). The host of technologies that are required to enable CAVs are many and span several engineering and science disciplines. This symposium aims to bring together researchers who are working on different aspects of CAVs. IEEE CAVS is a symposium for reporting advances in all aspects of CAVs, including theory, tools, protocols, networks, applications, systems, test-beds and field deployments. IEEE CAVS 2018 will be held on August 27 2018 in Chicago, co-located with IEEE VTC 2018 Fall (August 27-30, 2018). Areas of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:

- Autonomous driving
- Vehicular networks
- V2V, V2I and V2X communications
- ADAS technologies, systems and applications
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for CAVs
- In-vehicle communications
- Sensing, detection, and actuation
- 5G for connected and automated vehicles
- Multi-sensor fusion
- Mapping and localization
- Vision and environment perception
- In-car electronics and embedded software, OS and systems
- Networked automotive cyber-physical systems
- Automotive IoT
- Vehicular and transportation data analytics
- Automotive cybersecurity, liability and privacy
- Smart and shared mobility systems and applications 
- Coexistence of CAVs, automated, connected and conventional/legacy vehicles
- Connected and automated vehicle safety applications
- Impact of CAVs on transport safety, traffic management, characterization and prediction
- Computer aided modeling, simulation, verification
- Field trials
- Standards development, business models, policies
- Human factors and human machine interfaces
- CAVs and vulnerable road users

Submissions: (closed)

Prospective authors are invited to submit 5-page, original, and unpublished full papers. Manuscripts should be formatted according to IEEE two-column conference style, including figures and references. Manuscripts should be submitted through trackchair: https://vtc2018f-rr-wks.trackchair.com/track/1689
