THE INTELLIGENT VEHICLES SYMPOSIUM (IV'13) is the premier annual forum sponsored by the IEEE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS SOCIETY (ITSS). Researchers, academics, practitioners, and students from universities, industry, and government agencies are invited to discuss research and applications for Intelligent Vehicles and Cooperative Vehicle Systems. The technical presentations are characterized by a single session format so that all attendees remain in a single room for multilateral communications in an informal atmosphere. Tutorials will be offered on the first day followed by three days of presentations. An exhibition area will be available for the presentation of products and projects. The IFAC – INTELLIGENT AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES CONFERENCE IAV'13 will also be held at Gold Coast, from 26 June to 28 June 2013. It is the very first time, since their inception, that these two premier conferences will be held back-to-back. A special reduced conference fee will thus be on offer to intelligent autonomous vehicles researchers and practitioners towards encouraging them to attend both events and explore underpinning synergies.
