Guest Editorial Special Issue on Models and Technologies for Intelligent Transportation Systems

This Special Issue collects selected contributions presented at the 5
^th
IEEE International Conference on Models and Technologies for Intelligent Transportation Systems (MT-ITS) held in Naples, Italy in 2017. MT-ITS 2017 brought together researchers and practitioners from across Europe and the rest of the world to discuss emerging trends and developments in modeling and technology for Intelligent Transportation Systems, to present state-of-the-art updates and to facilitate cross-fertilization between these two key areas of transportation systems. Consistently, papers published in the special issue encompass timely and emerging research topics in modeling, optimization and assessment of transportation systems, as well as relevant technological issues.
