in conjunction with 

The 14th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies (ANT-2023) 
http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-23/ 
March 15 - 17, 2023 Leuven, Belgium 

CALL FOR PAPERS : ANT-2023(MSTS) and ABMTRANS-2023 

The ANT-2023 conference dedicates the MSTS track to "Modeling and Simulation in Transportation Sciences" while the ABMTRANS-2023 workshop focuses on the agent-based approach in that domain. Both provide an international forum on the latest technologies and research in the field of traffic and transportation modeling. Both are organized by the Transportation Research Institute (IMOB), Hasselt University, Belgium. 

SCOPE 

The aim of the ANT-2023 MSTS track is to bring together communities interested in the computation, knowledge discovery and technology policy aspects of transportation systems. The organizers of ANT-2023 (MSTS track) welcome information technology application papers from researchers in the domains of transportation sciences and engineering, computer science, machine learning, data science, urban and regional planning, civil engineering, geography, geo-informatics and related disciplines to submit papers for consideration for presentation and for publication in the conference proceedings. 

The ABMTRANS workshop provides a multidisciplinary collaborative forum for researchers and practitioners to submit papers presenting new research results and novel ideas related to the theory or the practice of agent-based traffic and transportation modeling. This workshop also invites researchers to submit their work focusing on the data mining, (activity-based) demand prediction, management and configuration for agent-based traffic and transportation modeling. 

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): 

Agent-based transportation modeling and simulation 
Agent-based negotiation of QoS and SLAs in traffic and transportation models 
Agent-based and activity-based scheduling to establish synthetic agenda for day-to-day activities (travel demand prediction) 
Calibration and validation of (agent-based) models for traffic and transportation 
Collaboration, cooperation, competition, coalitions in traffic and transportation models, including collaborative multi-modal transport 
Conceptual modeling of agent-based approach 
Data mining and statistical learning for travel information 
Environment modeling and interaction protocols 
Human-computer interfaces in intelligent transportation applications 
Human factors including adaptive driving, travel behavior, pervasive technology 
Large scale simulation of agent-based microscopic traffic models 
Logistics and transportation management 
Marketing decision support 
Mathematical optimization in traffic engineering and smart city topics 
Multi-modal routing of agents in a dynamic traffic environment 
Novel applications targeted to health, mobility, livable environment and sustainability 
Renewable energy sources in transportation 
Role of multi-agent methodologies for complex systems 
Simulation of traffic, passenger flows, assisted driving or collaborative transport 
Social and emergent behavior in MAS-T (multi-agent systems applied to traffic and transport) 
Social and institutional information related to travel 
Traffic flow and transportation modeling 
Travel information, including recommender systems and user feedback systems 
Uncertain information in collaborative transport and assisted traveling 

SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS - JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUES 

All papers submitted to ANT-2023 and ABMTRANS-2023 will be peer reviewed. Accepted papers will be published by Elsevier Science in the open-access Procedia Computer Science series on-line. Procedia Computer Science is hosted by Elsevier on www.Elsevier.com and on the Elsevier content platform ScienceDirect (www.sciencedirect.com), and will be freely available worldwide. All papers in Procedia will be indexed by Scopus (www.scopus.com) and by Thomson Reuters' Conference Proceeding Citation Index (http://thomsonreuters.com/conference-proceedings-citation-index/). All papers in Procedia will also be indexed by Engineering Village (Ei) (www.engineeringvillage.com). This includes EI Compendex (www.ei.org/compendex). Moreover, all accepted papers will be indexed in DBLP (http://dblp.uni-trier.de/). The papers will contain linked references, XML versions and citable DOI numbers. 

Authors who submitted a paper of outstanding quality will receive an invitation to write an extended version of their paper for one of the ranked journals mentioned on http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-23/#journalSpecialIssues 
The extended paper will be subject to an additional peer review. Please consult the website ( http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-23/#journalSpecialIssues ) for the latest information about these journals. 

The submission processes will be managed by easychair.org. If you have used this system before, you can use the same username and password.
