1RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
Title: “Discussion on Intelligent Transport Systems and Connected Autonomous
Vehicles: Policy pathways, industry perspective, modeling issues, integrating
sensors, communication, and control”
Journal 1: Decisions for autonomous vehicles: integrating sensors, communication, and control
Driggs-Campbell, K.R., Shia, V. and Bajcsy, R., 2014, April. Decisions for autonomous vehicles:
integrating sensors, communication, and control. In Proceedings of the 3rd international conference
on High confidence networked systems (pp. 59-60). ACM.
The authors have conducted a detailed research keeping in mind the development of
autonomous vehicles and intelligent transport systems. The article has formalized different kind of
algorithms and procedures. Further, the article has been useful in decision making with particular
focus towards deployment of autonomous vehicles.
For resolving different problems, various scenarios are proposed in the articles. All these are
done through discussing the current heterogonous scenario of completely autonomous, semi-
autonomous and different types of human driven vehicles. Apart from this, the article has stated
those previous analysis has been at the fundamental step towards development.
In this research, various different tasks are summarized at the sectors of vehicle-to-vehicle
communication that have been comprised of controlled applications. This also included high-level of
various decision making processes as per as intelligent transport systems and autonomous vehicles
are concerned. In this paper, the writers have demonstrated these suggested methods. Thus, the
article has been helpful to endure security, stability and feasibility for the autonomous systems.

Modeling issues and research perspectives. In Models and Technologies for Intelligent
Transportation Systems (MT-ITS), 2017 5th IEEE International Conference on (pp. 1-6). IEEE.
In this article the verge of latest revolutions about road transportation is discussed. The
authors have analyzed the methods how the present stocks of various traditional human-driven
vehicles are been very much time costly. Apart from this, the journal has showed that the basic issue
has been in the investigation of network performance effects and user behavior. It has needed
various enhancements in terms of tools for the traffic. Apart from this, the article discusses a theory
of transportation that is useful for modelers and different planners.
Further, a common perspective of the existing methods regarding traffic analysis and control
is also discussed. The design and system of transportation is been analyzed here with the
experiments regarding developments and tools that are needed. At last, the article has showed that
the previous and present technologies has been sustaining altogether and sharing the same facilities.

The article shows that federal regulation of automotive industry has been useful for public
security. In this article the main aim has been to highlight the latest challenges towards regulation of
different innovations related to security. Here, the primary issue is the financial backups through
which technology develops and impacts safety of traffic. Thus the issues are resolved in this research
effort done through interviews. This is done on various representatives of automotive manufacturers
and in-vehicle systems that are active in this area.
Here the interview is conducted from the view-point of federal authorities along with the
potential role of the states. This perspective also demonstrated that more tasks are required to be
done for solving the issues rising from liabilities. Apart from this, the outcomes also indicated that
the industries of autonomous vehicles have needed the focus to control opportunities of innovation in
this area.
