 Where? Vigo, Spain

REGISTRATIONS ARE CLOSED!

On 15 April 2011 a seminar on Practical issues in starting up a FOT of Cooperative Systems and defining research questions, hypotheses and performance indicators will take place in Vigo, Spain. This seminar is organised in collaboration with CTAG, the Galician Automotive Technology Centre (www.ctag.com).

Two new European projects on cooperative systems (DRIVE C2X and FOTsis) have started in January 2011 and they will contribute to this seminar, as well as the Spanish SISCOGA project.

The focus of this seminar is on the first stage of a FOT: how to develop research questions, hypotheses and performance indicators? Next to presentations from the three projects, the seminar will provide an overview of the FOT methodology developed in the FESTA project and the recommendations coming from earlier seminars. Every day practice in traffic management will be explained by the traffic management centre near Vigo.

The seminar targets people involved or interested in FOTs (especially in FOTS of cooperative systems), coming from research, industry or public authorities. Several discussions will take place in small groups to share knowledge and experiences.
