Call for papers for technical and scientific papers

The International Programme Committee invites ITS experts to submit a draft paper to be considered for presentation and publication at the Stockholm 2009 Congress.

Authors may submit papers for conventional presentation sessions as being either technical or scientific. Technical papers may address technical subjects as well as the institutional, business and economic aspects of ITS. Scientific papers should concentrate on research and scholarship as they will be independently refereed in accordance to academic journal standards. All proposals must be original and report on recent significant and substantive achievements.

Predominantly commercial papers will not be accepted.

Either type of paper may be put forth for an Interactive Poster Session, which is very effective for establishing valuable contacts and exchanging information.

To identify the main subject of your paper we ask that you select one topic and one subtopic out of the list below. Additionally you are requested to choose one or two keywords that best relate to your subject, from the list available on the submission website.

Topics are related to all modes of transport (road, rail, aviation and maritime).
