This book presents cutting-edge work on the most challenging research issues concerning intelligent transportation systems (ITS), introducing selected, highly relevant advanced research on scheduling and real-time communication for vehicular networks, as well as fault tolerance, test beds and simulations for ITS. The authors define new architectures that support cooperative sensing in ITS and offer guidance for the development of a reference end-to-end implementation. The presented results allow advanced traffic and travel management strategies to be formulated on the basis of reliable and real-time input data. The effectiveness of these new strategies, together with the proposed systems, is assessed in field trials and via simulations. The chapters in this book detail new research findings, algorithms, protocols, and the development of an implementation platform for ITS that merges and integrates heterogeneous data sources into a common system. In addition, they provide a set of advanced tools for the control, monitoring, simulation, and prediction of traffic that result in safer, more sustainable, and less congested roads. Work undertaken within the framework of the FP7 project ICSI (Intelligent Cooperative Sensing for Improved traffic efficiency) is also included in the research activities addressed.
This book presents cutting-edge work on real-time modelling and processing, a highly active research field in both the research and industrial domains. Going beyond conventional real-time systems, major efforts are required to develop accurate and computational efficient real-time modelling algorithms and design automation tools that reflect the technological advances in high-speed and ultra-low-power transceiver communication architectures based on nanoscale devices. The book addresses basic and more advanced topics, such as I/O buffer circuits for ensuring reliable chip-to-chip communication, I/O buffer behavioural modelling, multiport empirical models for memory interfaces, compact behavioural modelling for memristive devices, and resource reservation modelling for distributed embedded systems. The respective chapters detail new research findings, new models, algorithms, implementations and simulations of the above-mentioned topics. As such, the book will help both graduate students and researchers understand the latest research into real-time modelling and processing.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Future Intelligent Vehicular Technologies, Future 5V 2016, held in Porto, Portugal, in September 2016. Future 5V presents vehicular networks and communications and also hosted the "Internet of Things (IoT) meets Big Data and Cloud Computing Workshop". The 21 revised full papers presented were reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The papers cover all aspects of intelligent vehicular communications including security and applications.
Youth is the main power of any country for its socioeconomic development. Pakistan's majority of the population consists on youth. Youth Crime is an imperative problem in every part of the country according to current situation. But, unfortunately it has been observed that the involvement of the youth in criminal activities is increasing at alarming rate, which is bad for any nation or country. It is understood that youth plays important role in the development of any nation or country. Youth is energetic and quick decision makers and due to this dynamic capability it always has been the heart of any nation. In this way, if youth begin to involve in criminal activities then the development of nation or country begin to slow down. In Pakistan youth crime is becoming gigantic problem day by day. The study was carried out to assess the phenomenon of crime and socio-economic factors of youth crime prevailing in the society. The study revealed that large number of criminals came from low socio-economic community; therefore they cannot fulfill their basic needs so they commit crime for the fulfillment of their basic needs.Therefore opportunities should be there for youth development.
The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is the technology that merges the Internet with the cellular world. The existing session establishment scenario of IMS suffers from triangular routing for a certain period of time when an end user is mobile. The other problem areas in optimizing presence service, dimensioning a push-to-talk over cellular service and analyzing service rates of instant messaging relay extensions in IMS are identified. In order to mitigate the drawbacks of these crucial aspects, this book contributes with a robust scheduler to improve performance of the presence service, several derived models to dimension push-to-talk over cellular service, a new mechanism to reduce cost for the session set ups in mobile environment and the evaluation of message blocking and stability in instant messaging service by applying queuing theories. The analysis of performance enhancements and the derived models of this book should help shed some light on the emerging environment of IMS infrastructure. They should also be very useful to professionals who may be considering pursuing research in the field of wireless communications and mobility management using stochastic process.
