Abstract: Road traffic is a problem which is increasing in cities with large population. Unrelated to this fact the number of portable and wearable devices has also been increasing throughout the population of most countries. With this advent, the capacity to monitor and register data about people habits and locations as well as more complex data such as intensity and strength of movements has created an opportunity to contribute to the general wealth and comfort within these environments. Ambient Intelligence and Intelligent Decision Making processes can benefit from the knowledge gathered by these devices to improve decisions on everyday tasks such as deciding navigation routes by car, bicycle or other means of transportation and avoiding route perils. The concept of computational sustainability may also be applied to this problem. Current applications in this area demonstrate the usefulness of real time system that inform the user of certain conditions in the surrounding area. On the other hand, the approach presented in this work aims to describe models and approaches to automatically identify current states of traffic inside cities and use methods from computer science to improve overall comfort and the sustainability of road traffic both with the user and the environment in mind. Such objective is delivered by analyzing real time contributions from those mobile ubiquitous devices to identifying problematic situations and areas under a defined criteria that have significant influence towards a sustainable use of the road transport infrastructure.

Detecting stress during real-world driving tasks using physiological sensors
TL;DR: The results show that for most drivers studied, skin conductivity and heart rate metrics are most closely correlated with driver stress level, indicating that physiological signals can provide a metric of driver stress in future cars capable of physiological monitoring.

Extended time-to-collision measures for road traffic safety assessment.
M.M. Minderhoud,Piet H. L. Bovy +1 more
TL;DR: Two new safety indicators based on the time-to-collision notion suitable for comparative road traffic safety analyses are described and it is suggested that the indicator threshold value to be applied in the safety assessment has to be adapted when advanced AICC-systems with safe characteristics are introduced.
