Christian U. Haas 2023 Leadership Page

International Forum – IF1: Data and AI for Future Mobility: What’s at Stake
Speaker: CEO Christian U. Haas
Date:  September 17, 2024
Time: 11:00am – 12:30pm
Location: Dubai World Trade Centre, Sheikh Maktoum Hall B & C

There is a clear revolutionising potential of artificial intelligence (AI) for the mobility industry. Just some examples: Enhancing connected and automated vehicle services, improving traffic management, advancing personalisation and customisation of MaaS, improving the performance of electromobility by optimising infrastructure and battery use. The power of AI is heightened by processing copious amounts of data. Join to discuss the hopes and challenges.

Abbas Mohaddes 2023 Leadership Page

International Forum – IF2: Harnessing Intelligent Transportation Systems for Safe and Sustainable Futures
Speaker: Abbas Mohaddes
Date: September 17, 2024
Time: 2:00pm – 3:30pm
Location: Dubai World Trade Centre, Sheikh Maktoum Hall B & C

Join us at this significant forum where representatives from the Americas, Asia Pacific, and EMEA will discuss the pivotal role of ITS and emerging technologies in advancing safety and sustainability within transportation networks.

Sunny Chakravarty 2023 Leadership Page

New Data-Driven Dilemma Zone and Intersection Safety Strategies Needed for a Vision Zero Future
Speaker: Snehasis “Sunny” Chakravarty
Date: September 19, 2024
Time: 11:00am – 12:30pm
Room: Abu Dhabi B

Despite advances in traffic control technologies and systems, safety at the “dilemma zone” remains operationally problematic. According to Gazis, Herman, and Maradudin’s original 1960s dilemma zone research, a dilemma zone is defined as the area in which a driver is unable to stop safely before the stop bar, or proceed through the intersection before the signal turns red. In his presentation Sunny will discuss what is needed to finally realize a Vision Zero Future.

Luca Paone - ITS World Congress

Proactive Traffic Management via Unusual Congestion Recognition from Floating Car Data – Luca Paone | September 16, 2024, 9:00am | Session Room: Sharjah D

In urban areas around the world traffic congestion remains a significant challenge. To address this, we propose an innovative solution for the detection and management of traffic congestions. This solution leverages Floating Car Data (FCD) and advanced machine learning techniques. It enables real-time monitoring and predictive analytics in traffic management. We present an application of this method on a test case in New York City (USA).

Dario Menichetti, Ph.D. - World Congress

SIS 9: Smart Infrastructure Deployments for Increased Safety and Mobility in the US and UAE – Dario Menichetti, Ph.D. | September 16, 2024, 3:15pm – 4:45pm | Sheikh Maktoum Hall D

Technology is rapidly transforming traffic infrastructure and is having major impacts on road user safety and mobility. This panel will explore smart infrastructure deployments by forward-thinking road owners and operators across the US and the UAE including the city of Seattle, the city of Dublin, Ohio, Dubai Silicon Oasis, UAE, among others. The panelists will present how they made use of smart infrastructure such as AI-powered sensors and V2X communication technologies to address their most pressing challenges.​

Daniele Tiddi - ITS World Congress

Cloud-based Digital Twin for Public Transport Operational Decision Support – Daniele Tiddi, Ph.D. | September 17, 2024, 2:00pm | Session Room: Sharjah D

This presentation presents U-SIM.live, a simulation tool that uses macroscopic simulation to help public transport operators & mobility agencies in their operative tasks. U-SIM.live enhances transparency by using city live data to inform the transport operator, agency and eventually passengers.

Dr.-Ing. Matthias Pfriem - ITS World Congress

Analysis of the impact of fleet renewal and electrification on clean mobility through simulation – Dr.-Ing. Matthias Pfriem | | September 17, 2024, 4:00pm | Session Room: Abu Dhabi A

Air pollution is a global threat for public health and climate change is one of the biggest challenges of modern times. The transport sector is a significant contributor of emissions to both dimensions, mainly through use of fossil fuels. Fleet renewal and electrification enable cleaner mobility, reducing both greenhouse gases and pollutants.

This is a fantastic opportunity to engage with our experts, participate in meaningful discussions, and gain insights into the future of transportation technology. We look forward to connecting with industry peers, partners, and clients in Dubai.

We can’t wait to see you there!
