Technical papers may address the institutional, business and economic aspects of ITS as well as technical subjects; Scientific papers should concentrate on research and scholarship as they will be independently refereed in accordance with academic journal standards;

Commercial papers are considered as near-market research work. They should be more specific and describe an activity aimed at generating or improving a specific product, device or idea for the commercial market.

Special interest session proposals are new for Helsinki and are organised at the request of organisations or groups of experts developing and deploying ITS, these interactive, tailor-made meetings create an opportunity to explore specific topics in greater detail than a conventional paper session to offer fresh perspectives and insight.

Sessions that appear to be commercial sales pitches for a given product or company will not be permitted as Special Interest Sessions.

Detailed submission guidelines are available on the event’s website. Deadline for paper submission is 7 January 2014.
