Abstract

The potential systemic impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) is particularly apparent in the transport sector. ICT can be applied to transport through the development of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), in particular. Now, mobilising ICT to facilitate the transition to an energy-efficient, low-carbon economy in ITS is important challenge. For example, ICT can enable energy efficiency improvements by reducing the amount of energy required to deliver a given services by delivering innovative technologies, e.g. emerging solutions in computing such as virtualization, grid computing and cloud computing technologies which are described in this paper.
