Abstract :
This program has been characterized by an incremental approach to IVHS technology deployment, an extrapolation from the interests and capabilities of the automotive industry, and complementarity to other university programs in North America. Its research thrusts are in the areas of advanced driver information systems, and freight and fleet control. The University´s proximity to Canada has also resulted in Canadian sponsorship and potential IVHS demonstrations involving both countries.<>
