Blockchain-Based Intelligent Transportation Systems: The Human Use of Cyberphysical–Social Transportation Systems [President’s Message]

摘要

The interconnected objects, infrastructure, and data that form the base of cyberphysical systems use a broad range of electronic technologies to improve the usage of civil infrastructure and make transportation systems safe, efficient, reliable, and environmentally friendly. These existing relationships have established a strong relevance for potential future developments in automation and data exchange in the field of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Collaborative platforms to acquire data; advanced driver assistance systems; or other tools, such as simulation platforms with connectivity and automation capabilities, are examples of the possibilities for the systemic coverage of many aspects of the automotive, transport, and mobility system, and they make it possible to address interdisciplinary holistic problems that include aspects from social sciences, transport, planning, robotics, and communication technologies.
