We study the problem of platoon formation, trying to optimize traveling time and fuel
consumption based on car-to-platoon assignments. The general concept of platooning, ie …

Platooning has repeatedly been shown to have the potential to increase both the efficiency
and the safety of future road traffic. Yet, while there is ample research that illustrates its …

An open question in platooning is the appropriate selection of the inter-vehicle distance:
shorter distances reduce energy, but increase network demands, which have to be satisfied …

A platoon consists of a string of vehicles traveling close together. Such tight formation allows
for increased road throughput and reduced fuel consumption due to decreased air …

It is formally known that by establishing a heavy duty vehicle platoon, the fuel consumption is
reduced for the follower vehicle due to the lower air drag. However, it is not clear how the …

Automated and coordinated vehicles' driving (platooning) is gaining more and more
attention today and it represents a challenging scenario heavily relying on wireless Inter …

Vehicle platooning is a promising concept in dealing with traffic jams. Several simulations
and field trials have shown how platooning can improve lane capacity and lower trip times …

The platooning of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) is expected to have a
transformative impact on road transportation, eg, enhancing highway safety, improving traffic …

Platoon formation has been identified as a promising framework in developing intelligent
transportation systems. By autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle control and inter …

Recent advances in vehicle connectivity have allowed formation of autonomous vehicle
platoons for improved mobility and traffic throughput. In order to avoid a pile-up in such …
