Keynote1: From Connected Cars to Smart Cities - On Wireless Communication Latency and Reliability
Rooms: Al Bustan 1, Al bustan 2, Al Bustan 3
Chair: Abderrahim Benslimane (University of Avignon & LIA/CERI, France)
Abstract
In this keynote, we discuss the challenges and opportunities of the connected cars vision in relation to some of the most needed components in modern smart cities: improved road traffic safety combined with reduced travel times and emissions. Using selected application examples including the use of virtual traffic lights, intelligent intersection management, and platooning, we assess the needs on the underlying system components with a particular focus on inter-vehicle communication.With the standardization of the DSRC/WAVE protocol stack, the vehicular networking community converged to a common understanding of data dissemination schemes that already have high potentials for many applications. Yet, vehicular networks are way more dynamic than originally considered. Radio signal fading and shadowing effects need to be considered in the entire design process as well as the strong need for low-latency communication, fairness, and robustness. We bring all these aspects together outlining necessary ingredients for future connected cars applications.

Keynote2: Towards 5G - an operators perspective
Rooms: Al Bustan 1, Al bustan 2
Chair: Bayan S Sharif (Khalifa University, UAE)
Abstract
Fixed line broadband and 4th generation mobile network have had a transformational impact on today's world. There is a growing consensus on the needs for future wireless services which embody significant technical and economic challenges. The 5th generation of mobile technology will need to support broadband, IoT and tactile internet services. This talk explores some of BT's research activities which aim to address these challenges and highlights how 5G is driving convergence of fixed, Mobile and computing infrastructure.
