Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The transportation sector plays a pivotal role in the economic development of society. The planning and management of this sector are significant to the government as well as different companies. Urbanization and economic development have led to traffic congestion, increased travel time, fuel consumption, as well as the emission of greenhouse gases. Although the growing use of electric vehicles (EVs) has the potential to mitigate some of these problems, wide-scale charging infrastructure is yet to be developed to enable their use. To meet many of these challenges, smart as well as sustainable transportation infrastructure is required to enable the best use of the transportation sector and enable economic growth. The objective of this special issue is to employ machine learning (ML)- and artificial intelligence (AI)-based knowledge to better plan and model future smart transportation systems. The data generated from the wide-scale sensor network in the smart city can be efficiently used for developing several applications for smart transportation. We invite manuscripts including review papers that critically examine how ML and technological innovations can the sustainable smart transportation planning. These topics include but are not limited to:
- Prediction, control, and management of pollutants;
- Electric vehicle routing;
- Charging infrastructure development for modern electric vehicles;
- Management of traffic flow and route optimization;
- Management of the traffic congestion and reducing travel time;
- Vehicle-to-grid (V2G), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-home (V2H) technologies;
- Integrating renewable energy in the transportation sector;
- Vehicle energy management.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
