Papers dealing with vehicle-centered intelligent systems are solicited. This symposium is characterized by a single session format so that all the attendees remain in a single room for multilateral communications in an informal atmosphere. As another tradition, the meetings have enthusiastic participation from industry, as well as research centers and universities. The IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) will be held at the same location on Oct. 2-3, 2000, and a single -reduced rate- registration option will be available for both Conferences, as well as individual registrations. * TOPICS Driver Assistance Systems System Architectures Sensors Navigation/Guidance Systems Imaging and Vision Enhancement Vehicle Control Information Systems Human-machine Interfaces Active Safety Traffic Monitoring and Control Communications and Networks CAN * PAPER SUBMISSION Prospective authors are invited to submit a paper in electronic (Postscript) form by FTP at: ftp://ftp.ce.unipr.it/iv2000 by March 1st, 2000 for peer review.
