The 8th International Workshop on Agent-based Mobility, Traffic and
Transportation Models, Methodologies and Applications (ABMTRANS-2019)


http://www.abmtrans.eu/

http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-19/#workshop_approved


in conjunction with


The 10th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and
Technologies (ANT-2019)

http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-19/

April 29 - May 2, 2019 Leuven, Belgium


CALL FOR PAPERS : ANT-2019(MSTS) and ABMTRANS-2019


The ANT-2019 conference dedicates the MSTS track to Modeling and Simulation
in Transportation Sciences while the ABMTRANS-2019 workshop focuses on the
agent-based approach in that domain. Both provide an international forum on
the latest technologies and research in the field of traffic and
transportation modeling. Both are organized by the Transportation Research
Institute (IMOB), Hasselt University, Belgium.


SCOPE


The aim of the ANT-2019 MSTS track is to bring together communities
interested in the computation, knowledge discovery and technology policy
aspects of transportation systems. The organizers of ANT-2019 (MSTS track)
welcome information technology application papers from researchers in the
domains of transportation sciences and engineering, computer science, urban
and regional planning, civil engineering, geography, geo-informatics and
related disciplines to submit papers for consideration for presentation and
for publication in the conference proceedings.


The ABMTRANS workshop provides a multidisciplinary collaborative forum for
researchers and practitioners to submit papers presenting new research
results and novel ideas related to the theory or the practice of
agent-based traffic and transportation modeling. This workshop also invites
researchers to submit their work focusing on the data mining,
(activity-based) demand prediction, management and configuration for
agent-based traffic and transportation modeling.


Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):


Agent-based transportation modeling and simulation

Agent-based negotiation of QoS and SLAs in traffic and transportation models

Agent-based and activity-based scheduling to establish synthetic agenda for
day-to-day activities (travel demand prediction)

Calibration and validation of (agent-based) models for traffic and
transportation

Collaboration, cooperation, competition, coalitions in traffic and
transportation models, including collaborative multi-modal transport

Conceptual modeling of agent-based approach

Data mining and statistical learning for travel information

Environment modeling and interaction protocols

Human-computer interfaces in intelligent transportation applications

Human factors including adaptive driving, travel behavior, pervasive
technology

Large scale simulation of agent-based microscopic traffic models

Logistics and transportation management

Marketing decision support

Mathematical optimization in traffic engineering and smart city topic

Multi-modal routing of agents in a dynamic traffic environment

Novel applications targeted to health, mobility, livable environment and
sustainability

Renewable energy sources in transportation

Role of multi-agent methodologies for complex systems

Simulation of traffic, passenger flows, assisted driving or collaborative
transport

Social and emergent behavior in MAS-T (multi-agent systems applied to
traffic and transport)

Social and institutional information related to travel

Traffic flow and transportation modeling

Travel information, including recommender systems and user feedback systems

Uncertain information in collaborative transport and assisted traveling
