Abstract

The essence of Intelligent Vehicle/Highway Systems (IVHS) is recognized as making significant improvements in mobility, highway safety, and productivity by building transportation systems that draw upon advanced electronic technologies and control software. The role of IVHS in tomorrow's transportation systems is discussed, and the following four categories are defined as part of the process of planning a national IVHS program in the United States: (1) advanced traffic management systems; (2) advanced traveler information systems; (3) commercial vehicle operations; and (4) advanced vehicle control systems.
