Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Big data provides unprecedented opportunities for the development of intelligent transportation and logistics industries. Taking full advantage of big data, we can accomplish informed decision-making and management on controlling cost, improving energy-efficiency, reducing carbon emissions, etc. The main challenges are the fusion of multi-source data and the transparent management of big data. This Special Issue is devoted to the exchange of scientific ideas, research methods, and innovative applications related to ‘’Intelligent Transportation and Green Logistics with Big Data’’. At present, although some papers about ‘’Intelligent Transportation and Green Logistics with Big Data’’ have been published, most of them are scattered across various volumes of the journal. We envisage that with the proposed Special Issue will offer the reader both an in-depth and a general account of accomplishments in this area, and point out remaining challenges for further research and development.
