Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Autonomous driving and intelligent transportation could be the most important factors deciding the direction and pace of the development of the future of transportation, and they may even rewrite the definition of “travel” in the future.
This Special Issue will, therefore, be dedicated to the research on methodologies, technologies, and standards for the design, manufacture, testing and commercial application of autonomous driving vehicles, focusing on future transport infrastructure and future traffic management technologies in the era of autonomous driving.
The scope of this Special Issue includes but is not limited to the following research areas: sensing and recognition technology, V2X technology, driving path planning technology, vehicle control technology, road tests, simulation tests, road test evaluation index, simulation test evaluation index, road test specifications and standards, simulation test specifications and standards, road infrastructure for autonomous driving, traffic management technology in the autonomous driving era, robotaxi, autonomous driving buses, airport autonomous driving transportation, harbor autonomous driving transportation, expressway autonomous driving transportation, and other relevant topics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
