This is the 2007-2008 Annual Report of the Intelligent Transportation Systems Institute. The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Institute is a congressionally designated national University Transportation Center (UTC) funded through the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), the federal surface transportation bill passed in 2005. This funding continues the Institute's efforts initiated under SAFETEA-LU's predecessors, the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) and the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA). The ITS Institute plans and conducts activities that further the mission of the U. S. Department of Transportations UTC program. That mission is to advance U.S. technology and expertise in the many disciplines that make up transportation through education, research, and technology transfer activities at university-based centers of excellence. To help us accomplish this, we direct the work of researchers from multiple disciplines to advance the state of the art in the core ITS technologies of computing, sensing, communications, and control systems to solve todays challenging transportation problems.
