Proceedings & Special Issues

Authors have the option, when they upload their full paper to the submission system, to decide whether or not they would like to have their submitted paper be included in the conference proceedings which will be distributed on a USB stick to all conference attendees.

Following the conference, there will be several special issues of high-level journals, such as Accident Analysis & Prevention, Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, and Advances in Transportation Studies – an International Journal.

During full paper submission, authors can also indicate whether they wish their paper to be considered for publication in one of these special issues. Based on this self-selection, as well as considering the scope and review scores, the scientific committee will invite the authors of selected papers to submit an extended and updated version of the paper directly to the journals’ websites. A separate and additional review round, which is based on the review policy of each journal, will be conducted for the papers considered for the different special issues.
