The 2020 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC) seeks to virtually bring together researchers, professionals, and practitioners to present and discuss recent developments and challenges in vehicular networking, connected & automated driving, and other applications. 

The key conference on vehicular networking, which is being held from 16-18 December, accepted three papers from researchers at IT in Porto, which resulted from projects MobiWise and S2MovingCity.

One of the papers, "Exploring Wi-Fi Network Diversity for Vehicle-To-Infrastructure Communication", is authored by Rui Meireles (Vassar College), António Rodrigues (IT), Andrei Stanciu (Vassar College), Ana Aguiar (UP/IT) and Peter Steenkiste (CMU).

"Cooperative Bicycle Localization System via Ad Hoc Bluetooth Networks" is another paper, by Pedro Miguel Santos (CISTER/ISEP, IPP, UP), Miguel Rosa (UP), Luís Ramos Pinto (UL/IPFN) and Ana Aguiar (UP/IT).

Lastly, researchers Gonçalo Pereira (UP), Pedro d'Orey (UP) and Ana Aguiar (UP/IT) also presented a poster — "Cooperative Perception Platform for Intelligent Transportation Systems" — at this year's VNC.
