Abstract
Intelligent Transport Systems solutions
typically require selectable level of telecommunications services quality with
usually widely spread area coverage. ITS Telecommunications service parameters
were re-defined as performance indicators which are tightly linked with the ITS
service performance quantification. Wireless data services with reasonable
coverage are offered by public wireless mobile services providers, however,
mostly no relevant service performance indicators are guaranteed. ITS
requirements can be, however, cost-effectively resolved in case the different
public and private services are effectively combined. Such solution requires
implementation of the flexible system architecture supported by the efficient
decision processes. Additionally “Car to Infrastructure” and “Car to Car”
communication interconnected with the vehicle on board data network based on
the CAN (Controlled Area Network) bus significantly increase potential of the
intruders attacks so that the integration of the relevant
telecommunications security treatment has been understood as one of critical
topics of the ITS telecommunications solution, as well.

Abstract
The Internet has enabled an unprecedented
evolution in telematics and information systems, and in turn a global
revolution in the use of technology and digital citizenry. Although many see the technologies that have
driven this revolution as inventions of the past 1 to 2 decades, quite a few
had their genesis before the Internet became mainstream. In exploring the
history of the Internet, we see how it has facilitated innovations across all
areas of technology and social life, and with a little imagination are perhaps
able to get a glimpse of what is to come.

Abstract
There are a lot
of communalities between America and Europe on how the problems of the transportation system
up to 2050 should be tackled. Both sides have developed strategies and Action
Plans to address these issues. Technologies and Systems emerged in the last 20
years are becoming mature to significantly contribute to a safe, integrated and
sustainable transportation system in these areas. The presentation will address
the major trends in telematics applications with a specific view to organize a
seamless, safe and comfortable mobility for passenger and goods in the future.
