Keynote:
Can
VANETs reduce
congestion?
Professor Pravin Varaiya
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
University of California, Berkeley
Abstract
Congestion is caused by incidents, special events, poorly managed
highways, adverse weather, and excess demand. The delays caused
by these causes will be discussed, using data from California. An
effective congestion management strategy consists of a set of action
plans targeted at the different causes of congestion. The talk
will explore the potential role of VANETs within such action plans,
focusing on communication, sensing, and signal processing
requirements. .
Pravin Varaiya is
Nortel Networks Distinguished Professor in the
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at the
University of California, Berkeley. From 1975 to 1992 he was also
Professor of Economics at Berkeley. His current research is
concerned with communication networks, transportation, and hybrid
systems.
Varaiya has held a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Miller Research
Professorship. He received an Honorary Doctorate from L’Institut
National Polytechnique de Toulouse, and the Field Medal of the IEEE
Control Systems Society. He is a Fellow of IEEE and a member of
