June 2 - 5, 2014 Hasselt, Belgium

CALL FOR PAPERS : ANT-2014(MSTS) and ABMTRANS-2014

The ANT-2014 conference dedicates the MSTS track to Modeling and Simulation in Transportation Sciences while the ABMTRANS-2014 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. ABMTRANS-2014 is organized in the context of the European FP7 project DATASIM ( http://www.datasim-fp7.eu/ ).

SCOPE

The ANT-2014 MSTS track and ABMTRANS-2014 workshop provide 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 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 scheduling to establish synthetic agenda for day-to-day activities

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, persuasive 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

SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS

All accepted papers will be printed in the ANT-2014 conference proceedings published by Elsevier Science in the open-access Procedia Computer Science series (on-line). Procedia Computer Sciences is hosted on http://www.Elsevier.com/ and on Elsevier content platform ScienceDirect ( http://www.sciencedirect.com ), and will be freely available worldwide. All papers in Procedia will also be indexed by Scopus ( http://www.scopus.com ) and Engineering Village (Ei) ( http://www.engineeringvillage.com ). This includes EI Compendex ( http://www.ei.org/compendex ). The papers will contain linked references, XML versions and citable DOI numbers. You will be able to provide a hyperlink to all delegates and direct your conference website visitors to your proceedings. All accepted papers will also be indexed in DBLP ( http://dblp.uni-trier.de/ ).

The authors must follow Elsevier guidelines as given in ANT-2014 website ( http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-14/ ).

The submission processes will be managed by easychair.org. If you have used this system before, you can use the same username and password. If this is your first time using EasyChair, you will need to register for an account by clicking "I have no EasyChair account" button. Upon completion of registration, you will get a notification email from this system and you are ready for submitting your paper. You can upload and re-upload your paper to this system by the submission due date.

For ANT-2014, submitted technical papers must be no longer than 8 pages for full papers and 5 pages for short papers including all figures, tables and references. Authors should submit their contributions electronically in PDF format at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ant2014 .

For ABMTRANS-2014, the number of pages for workshop papers is limited to 6. Authors should submit their contributions electronically in PDF format at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=abmtrans14 .

The selective outstanding papers presented, after further revision, will be considered for publication in journals special issues at ANT'14.

In case of any problem with submission, please contact the respective chairs for assistance.
