  • Abstract
    We focus on the new models of urban transportation system based on green-energy vehicles. The main goal is to design and demonstrate a prototype of social network enabled transportation system which enables communication between electrical vehicles, monitoring, information gathering, assistant driving and traffic flow control. This service-oriented system targets on significant reduction in energy consumption, pollution impact, traffic congestion, and provides solutions with affordable costs from perspective of both individual travelers and transportation agencies.
