Communication Technologies for Vehicles

Axel Sikora leitet die Fachrichtung Informationstechnik und das Steinbeis-Transferzentrum für Embedded Design und Networking an der Berufsakademie Lörrach.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Communication Technologies for Vehicles, Nets4Cars/Nets4Trains/Nets4Aircraft 2014, held in Offenburg, Germany in May 2014. The 10 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 15 submissions. The book also contains 4 invited papers. The contributions are organized in topical sections named: automotive issues, car-to-car, aviation issues, in-car, and infrastructures.
