SAFETY AND SECURITY ISSUES IN DEVELOPING AND OPERATING IN INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS

The purpose of this panel is to introduce the safety and security issues related to the development and operation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) to conference participants. Many of these issues need to be addressed by the system safety and computer security communities prior to the development and deployment of ITS. At present, the US and other countries are funding academia and industry to build prototype automated highway systems in which vehicles are controlled via drive-by-wire technology, with vehicles traveling at high speeds at close spacing. The potential impact of software errors or hardware errors on system safety and security are great.
