It has been 15 years since the first generation of adaptive cruise control (ACC)-equipped
vehicles was available on the market and 7 years since the ISO standard for the first …

In this paper, the vehicle platooning literature published between 1994 and 2010 is
categorized and discussed. The paper includes a general introduction and overview of …

The current system of global trade is largely based on transportation and communication
technology from the 20th century. Advances in technology have led to an increasingly …

Introduces the notion of string stability of a countably infinite interconnection of a class of
nonlinear systems. Intuitively, string stability implies uniform boundedness of all the states of …

Vehicle following and its effects on traffic flow has been an active area of research. Human
driving involves reaction times, delays, and human errors that affect traffic flow adversely …

This paper investigates two different longitudinal control policies for automatically controlled
vehicles. One is based on maintaining a constant spacing between the vehicles while the …

We propose a model independent coordination strategy for multi-agent formation control.
The main theorem states that under a bounded tracking error assumption, our method …

This paper presents the design and experimental implementation of an integrated
longitudinal and lateral control system for the operation of automated vehicles in platoons …

This paper examines the role of the human driver as the primary control element within the
traditional driver-vehicle system. Lateral and longitudinal control tasks such as path …

The automation of the overtaking maneuver is considered to be one of the toughest
challenges in the development of autonomous vehicles. This operation involves two …
