Formal Methods for Intelligent Transportation Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 7610))

Motivation

The term Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), [4,5], refers to information and communication technology (applied to transport infrastructure and vehicles) that improve transport outcomes such as transport safety, transport productivity, travel reliability, informed travel choices, social equity, environmental performance and network operation resilience [2,3]. Safety-critical ITS include the so called X-by-wire (where ‘X’ can stand for ‘fly’, ‘brake’, ’accelerate, ‘steer’, etc.) systems used in domains like aerospace, automotive and railways. The importance of ITS is increasing as novel driverless/pilotless applications are emerging.
