Network-Wide Impacts of Connected Vehicles on Mobility: An Agent-Based Modeling Approach

This webinar will feature two student presentations from Oregon State University. Alireza Mostafizi and Shangjia Dong are both working with Dr. Haizhong Wang within the School of Civil and Construction Engineering. Both students will be presenting from their current research in connected vehicle technology. Connected vehicle (CV) is an emerging and promising technology aiming to reduce highway fatalities, travel delay, and vehicle emissions. The CV system architecture is envisioned to comprise specially designed wireless communications devices specifically for use in the vehicular environment. These communications radios will become embedded in vehicles, infrastructure, and personal mobile devices to allow for a vast, interconnected, and data-rich network.
