| The TIG Team |
The Transportation Informatics Group (TIG) is part of the Institute of Smart Systems Technologies. It is engaged in teaching and research for the "Information Technology" programs offered at the Alpen-Adria-University Klagenfurt at all levels (i.e., bachelor, master, and PhD). TIG also organizes scientific workshops, excursions, and international student exchange. It does work in close co-operation with industry and some international researchers, institutes and universities.
TIG is actively conducting research involving modeling, simulation, and test-bed evaluations for a series of concepts in the frame of the application of information and communication technology in transportation. Three main transportation systems are addressed: (a) Intelligent Transportation Systems; (b) Intelligent Vehicles and Mobile Robotics Systems; and (c) Intelligent Logistics and Supply Chains. In the research addressing these systems, a series of fundamental and theoretical tools from the fields of applied mathematics, electronics, and computer science are either extensively exploited or are source of inspiration for innovative solutions and concepts: nonlinear dynamics and synchronization, cellular neural networks, nonlinear image processing , cellular-neural-networks-based analog computing, systems science, and computational intelligence.
On-going research (in the frame of either PhD and master thesis works or research projects) is addressing following research topics:
·
o Visual sensors: robust machine vision
o Ontologies and reasoning
o Driver monitoring concepts
o Systems dynamics based performance assessment·
- Traffic Sensors and Surveillance Systems
o Positioning and Navigation
o Extended floating car data concepts
o Spatio-temporal realtime road safety assessment
o Sensor data quality issues
o Virtual sensor concepts
o Video surveillance systems
- Traffic Control & Simulation
o Online simulation concepts
o Adaptive, self-organized traffic control under uncertainty
o Real-time coupling with driver assistance systemso
- Intelligent Mobility Concepts

o Human and social factorso
- Intelligent Vehicles Technologies
o Cooperative systems (vehicle-to-infrastructrure, vehicle-to-vehicle)
o Smart driver Co-pilot concepts
o Autonomous driving & Mobile robotics
o Hardware implementations: DSP/FPGA/GPU
o Human factorso
- Intelligent Logistics and Supply Chains

Best Practice Project Award
The yearly roadshow of the „Programme Interreg IV Italy“ took place on October 20th, 2011 in Monastir di Treviso in Italy.
This event was organized by the “Abteilung Europa-Angelegenheiten” in Bolzano together with the partner region Veneto and they presented the status quo of the running programme period of Interreg IV, a forecast and furthermore the new Best-Practice-Brochure “Cyclorama”.
Within this event 25 projects (out of 183) had the possibility to demonstrate their projects. The Smart Resource-Aware Multi-Sensor Network project (SRSnet) was one of the awarded projects and is published in the Best-Practice Brochure.
The project started on September 2009 and is running for three years. It is a joint project with two Italian companies: Eye-Tech and infoFACTORY, and the Austrian partners: Lakeside Labs and the University of Klagenfurt with the Research Groups Transportation Informatics and Pervasive Computing.
