The Executive Round Tables
High-level perspectives and strategies regarding the present and future use of ICT in cars
Moderator:Professor Eric SampsonNewcastle University and ITS(UK)United Kingdom
Conclusions & Recommendations
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 2
KEYNOTE ADDRESS 1
Consumers want the safety, efficiency, mobility, environmental, convenience gainsData and information to support this mostly available but
not organised not clear how best to use itmixed private / public ownership
standards incomplete Business models unclearIs the initial market mainly the commercial driver or the private driver ?
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 3
KEYNOTE ADDRESS 2
Business models difficultwhere’s the return on investment ? will sector collaboration on data damage business cases ? are customers willing to pay ? how much ? who handles the fee collection ? on what basis do we charge ?
Do we need a “Killer Application” to make good business cases ? If so what are the candidates ?
Let’s cooperate and try to make it work !

TABLE 1 — OPPORTUNITIES
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 5
Big wins in road safety & network management
Safer vehicles, more driver support & assistance = fewer accidents
Better prediction & management of traffic flow = less congestion
Better management of traffic = reduced emissions and energy consumption
Range of new products and services for automotive manufacturers and ITS industry
Widespread recognition of societal and commercial benefits
Highlights from Table 1 ─ 1
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 6
Highlights from Table 1 ─ 2
Many teams working on applications, connectivityBUT still some gaps eg driver distraction and driver overload and underloadAND work tends to be
either Asia-Pacific or Americas or Europeeither public sector or commercialeither automotive or telecomms industry
In other words not enough lateral integration
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 7
TABLE 2 — PROBLEMS & SOLUTIONS
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 8
Highlights from Table 2 ─ 1
Technologies and standards developing quickly but poor integration / convergence regarding stds for safety, convenience and navigation
Standards bodies “competition” unwelcome with end users
Introduction of electric vehicles requires new style vehicle—infrastructure linking
Getting wireless link A to B easy; response time and data volumes need more thought
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 9
Highlights from Table 2 ─ 2
BUT work tends to be either Asia-Pacific or Americas or Europeeither public sector or commercialeither automotive or telecomms industry
Not clear what international body can bring the players together
In other words not enough lateral integration
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 10
Conclusions / Recommendations: Opportunities
Major potential for : Accident reduction through driver assistance and accident notification to improve rescue operations
Reducing transport impact on climate change directly & indirectly
Improving driving convenience and comfort eg in-vehicle services, infotainment, remote diagnostics ─ user selling point is good news for many industries
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 11
Conclusions / Recommendations: Problems & Solutions 1
Communication Architectures mostly ready but can we future-proof?
vehicle to vehiclevehicle to infrastructure in vehicle, including nomadic devices vehicle-to-grid
In-vehicle devices not being designed to common patterns / standards in Europe, Americas, Asia Pacific ? Relevant for manufacturers but who else needs global agreement ? Is anyone working on it ?
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 12
Conclusions / Recommendations: Problems & Solutions 2
Not yet clear what system interoperability we need. Who 'owns' this issue ─ vehicle manufacturers ? infrastructure owners / operators ? specialist service providers? Governments ? All of these ?
No accepted implementation strategies. Do those for Europe, Americas, Asia-Pacific need to be the same ?
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 13
Conclusions / Recommendations: Problems & Solutions 3
Role of cellphones still unclear: embedded, integrated or autonomous ? Decision has impact on business cases
Business / payment models differ for safety, climate change and comfort/convenience ─ how do we get them to converge ? Does it matter if we can't ?
Not yet clear what multi-functionality we need eg does an e-Call unit have to deliver infotainment services ?
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 14
Conclusions / Recommendations: Problems & Solutions 4
No clear view on Users' / Regulators’ / Suppliers’ security, liability and privacy concerns ─ could be a major barrier
Some understanding of driver distraction and overload; less work on driver underload ─ all three could become major Regulatory issues
No single list of standards and agreed 'owners‘ ─ unhelpful for application designers
InternationalTelecommunicationUnion
No 15
Conclusions / Recommendations: Problems & Solutions 5
4 different and overlapping sectors: automotive manufacturers, ITS services, telecom bodies, network/infrastructure owners/operators
We have the technologies; we now need the business and commercial activities
Cooperation of standards bodies needs improving
We need wider-ranging cross-sector collaboration; probably coordinated by Governments
