Road transport consumes significant quantities of fossil fuel and accounts for a significant
proportion of CO 2 and pollutant emissions worldwide. The driver is a major and often …

Road transport is a significant source of both safety and environmental concerns. With
climate change and fuel prices increasingly prominent on social and political agendas …

The advancements in communication and sensing technologies can be exploited to assist
the drivers in making better decisions. In this paper, we consider the design of a real-time …

This paper develops a navigation service, called GreenGPS, that uses participatory sensing
data to map fuel consumption on city streets, allowing drivers to find the most fuel efficient …

Today, driver support tools intended to increase traffic safety, provide the driver with
convenient information and guidance, or save time are becoming more common. However …

“Smart” vehicles of the future are envisioned to aid their drivers in reducing fuel consumption
and emissions by wirelessly receiving phase-shifting information of the traffic lights in their …

In this work the trade-off between economic, therefore fuel saving, and ecologic, pollutant
emission reducing, driving is discussed. The term eco-driving is often used to refer to a …

Motor vehicle powered by regular gasoline is one of major sources of pollutants for local and
global environment. The current study developed and validated a new fuel-economy …

In this work potential gains in fuel consumption due to eco-driving will be discussed. A
vehicle model and numerical optimization methods are used to identify optimal vehicle …

While it is well known that “MPG will vary” based on how one drives, little independent
research exists on the aggregate fuel savings potential of improving driver efficiency and on …
