How will next-generation Internet transform urban mobility?

Pre-ITS World Congress Workshop

21 October 2012, NH Danube City Hotel, Vienna, Austria

Instant Mobility is a 2-year research project in the EUFuture Internet Public-Private Partnership programme(FI-PPP) that is exploring the potential of Future Internet technologies to improve the mobility of people and goods, and the operation of transport networks and systems.
The Instant Mobility team has developed three scenarios that exploit Future Internet-based technologies to deliver innovative services for Personalised multi-modal travel Smart city logistics Virtualized traffic and transport infrastructure.
This workshop aims to promote the dialogue between the Future Internet and the ITS Community. The FI-PPP programme and its opportunities will be presented, as well as Instant Mobility’s concept of a “Transport & Mobility Internet”, and the project’s preliminary results on business models, user acceptance, security and privacy requirements for Future Internet-enabled services.

The project team wants to use this opportunity to exchange views with cities and other stakeholders on the added value of Future Internet for ITS, and to gather expressions of interest for future pilot implementations of Instant Mobility services. Finally this workshop, just before the ITS World Congress 2012, will be the occasion to preview the Instant Mobility conceptual prototype that will be on display during the Congress exhibition.

Do not miss this chance to learn how Future Internet technologies are going to transform our mobility, to share your ideas with the project team and to learn how you, your business and your city could participate in the next steps of this important European initiative!
