We all know that networks are fundamental prerequisites for prosperity and production. Transportation and communication are indispensible to society, they are the elements which bind all economic systems together. Without networks and communica tion all social and economic life will be reduced to isolated phenomena. Therefore, transportation can't be assessed in the same way as other services. A smoothly functioning system of communications is also a prerequistite for social and economic integration between separate geographical regions. The modernization of the infrastructure is therefore an urgent task and a precondition for carrying out the whole of Europe's ambitious political, economic and social agenda. Since the need for communication and transportation does not know any national borders, the functioning of the networks needs to be adopted to this new economic and political geography. Congestions of cities, highways, railroads, airways and tele communications must be tackled, if precious working, commuting and leisure time is not to be wasted and heavy burdens on the environment avoided. European traffic, is for example, expected to double within the next twenty years. In certain transport modes the growth is expected to be even faster - air passenger transport doubled in 10 years and goods transport on roads doubled in 15 years.

What Is Vehicular Communication Systems Computer networks known as vehicular communication systems consist of communicating nodes located in cars and roadside devices. These nodes share information with one another, including safety alerts and traffic data, as part of the network. They have the potential to be useful in reducing the occurrence of accidents and alleviating congestion. Each kind of node is a device that is intended only for use in dedicated short-range communications (DSRC). The DSRC operates in the 5.9 GHz band and has a bandwidth of 75 MHz. Its range is about 300 meters (980 ft). Intelligent transportation systems often include the development of vehicular communications as one of its components (ITS).

During the seventies and eighties, the industries associated with the transportation of goods and people have been exposed to some profound changes. The quickening pace of technological change - with its growing emphasis on telecommunications, knowledge-handling capacity, and air transportation - is increasing the discrete character of the world economy. Thus the network structure of global development patterns is becoming more important, with metropolitan centres as key nodes and rapid transportation routes as key links. In this evolutionary situation, changes in the preferred mix of transport modes are inevitable. The faster and more direct modes will be favoured, individually and in combination, and there will be an increasing interest in transportation policies and the provision of infrastructure. This volume contains a collection of innovative papers presented at the First International Conference on Transportation for the Future, held in Södertälje, Sweden in July 1988. Twenty industry leaders and prominent scientists from Europe, USA and Japan present their views about the ongoing transformation of production and distribution systems among firms striving for Just-In-Time methods, economies of scope, and a fully integrated approach to their economic activities. The future of passenger travel and infrastructure are also discussed. The resulting book presents a surprisingly consistent picture of how the transportation industries of the industrialized nations may be expected to grow and change in a long-term perspective.

Transport Communications is a ground-breaking study into the future of transporting both people and goods more efficiently. The authors examine how existing modes of transport can be made more effective by the use of modern communications technology. Examples include RFID tags, which allow goods to be tracked electronically at every stage of their journey - from the point of manufacture to the point of delivery. They show how possible future developments will continue to revolutionize transport systems, leading to better, cleaner, more cost effective systems. For example, the concept of computer-controlled rail systems, such as London's Dockland Light Railway could be taken a stage further to apply to vehicles which don't run on rails; or the smart traffic control system in Milton Keynes which sense traffic flow and adjusts signal phasing accordingly.

With the increasing worldwide trend in population migration into urban centers, we are beginning to see the emergence of the kinds of mega-cities which were once the stuff of science fiction. It is clear to most urban planners and developers that accommodating the needs of the tens of millions of inhabitants of those megalopolises in an orderly and uninterrupted manner will require the seamless integration of and real-time monitoring and response services for public utilities and transportation systems. Part speculative look into the future of the world’s urban centers, part technical blueprint, this visionary book helps lay the groundwork for the communication networks and services on which tomorrow’s “smart cities” will run. Written by a uniquely well-qualified author team, this book provides detailed insights into the technical requirements for the wireless sensor and actuator networks required to make smart cities a reality.

In the future, everyday life in traffic will be intricately meshed with city life. Today motorways, cities and streets are places where we spend a considerable amount of time, and where a large number of everyday encounters between people occur. Any road user’s journey coincides with hundreds or even thousands of others. This book unpacks the details of the practical achievements involved in socially engaging with people at high speed. Although, generally speaking, these encounters are brief and interaction is slight, the recent emergence of mobile technologies offers opportunities to support drivers and passengers beyond just helping them to reach their destination. New social media could enhance interaction in traffic making life on the road more interesting and meaningful. Such innovative applications could include car stereos that share music amongst drivers; digital games that interact with the landscape passing outside the car windows, or with passengers in surrounding cars; message systems that allow drivers to help each other; and web applications that allow motorcyclists to socialize on the road. Social Media on the Road - The Future of Car Based Computing provides a bridge between research in transport planning and traffic technology, and new media areas such as Computer Human Interaction and Computer Supported Cooperative Work. Those studying and researching in the areas of human computer interaction in mobile use contexts, and those interested in developing new forms of mobile applications and services will find this book an excellent resource. Oskar Juhlin is Associate Professor and Director of the Mobile Life VinnExcellence Centre at Stockholm University and Interactive Institute. 'This book represents a pioneering and key research work that examines the future of transportation being merged with communication and interactive media. It also provides a glimpse of the future potential of mixed reality entertainment for children and family on the move. It is essential for scientists, designers, and engineers working on mobile social media, as well as for business people looking for new potential urban transport media services.' Professor Adrian D.

Introduction: The future is here in that many of the new transportation devices that we see or read about today actually were someone's dreams and theories decades ago, thus the 'Reviewed' in the title. Books like Popular Mechanics, movies like Star Trek, and television shows like Buck Rogers and Captain Video and the Video Rangers are the inspiration for many of today's dreamers and their inventions. Energy: We have for decades been tied to one or two primary energy source for our cooking, heating, cooling, communications, and transportation. This is now changing as we create new methods of providing energy and eliminating pollution. This manual provides the reader with a host of current and possible future energy generation means that can be mostly to totally 'Green' and pollution free. Government: Government regulation is for some an intrusion on their rights, but is it. Most of the taxation is used for our protection and for improving our lives and most of the regulations are for our personal and financial safety. The manual has a small chapter on how our government is helping and protecting us from ourselves when we travel. Current Transportation: Current transportation using many means of travel is not as safe as it could be, and the transportation of the future can be made much safer. Current transportation is costly and is depleting not just our pocketbooks, but also our life spans. This manual will explain much of what you need to know about the cost and the ways you are in jeopardy. Slow is Slow is S l o w: Current transportation is slow in comparison to what it can and should be. We are losing trillions of dollars in wasted time, energy, work, and product due to the slowness of our transportation systems and the many instances when it comes to a complete halt. This too is covered in this important document on the future and past of public and individual transportation. Future Transportation: The chapter on future transportation is based on current experimental and prototype research that is going on in various parts of the world. The author has traveled to Europe and Asia as well as other nations over his lifetime and sees the past as well as the future developments of these nations. Unfortunately, the US seems to be lacking the initiative and the goals that it needs or will need in the future for sustainability. References: The manual has been highly researched by the author (me) and there are dozens of great references to the topic matters being discussed. Thus, this manual can be the catalyst to your thinking about the future and your possible future transportation needs so that you can research better and faster for your needs. Pictures: All pictures are Public Domain where marked. Pictures without any credits are the author's and are copyrighted. Pictures with links to a company are to be considered gratis to the company (Free advertising) and the company from which the link is offered owns the copyright of each. Abbreviations: There is an Appendix that covers the acronyms and abbreviations used in this manual and in the transportation industries. TOC and Index: There are two Table of Contents, the first is for the primary group of topics, and the second TOC is offered in an appendix for fine-tuning the topics. The index is substantial and allows for finding individual words or topics. Suitable For Reading by: This manual is designed to be used by readers aged from preteens to senior adults and may be adopted as a classroom educational guide. It is designed to be a good general background of what is and needs to be, and thus should peak your interest in the future of transportation and how to make America the absolute leader in future transportation.
