Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have great potential and market on modern traffic environment. Technologies of the day enable the real-time data transfer and presentation for the actors in traffic and outside of it. Inter-cognitive communication is a form of communication where an information system gathers data and processes it to a form of which users can benefit on their decision making. In this paper we will present how deploying new cognitive elements on mobile applications can increase traffic safety. The most important point of view in sharing the traffic data is how to present it for the driver and how to make the data transfer reliable and safe. New vehicles have built-in solutions, such as comprehensive infotainment systems, to present the information and warnings, but older vehicles do not have this option. Therefore the modern devices, such as smartphones and tablet computers can be utilized for these purposes. This paper describes Centria’s research work on developing mobile applications for improving the traffic flow and safety by real-time support for the driver’s decision making. Also, the data security has been studied and tested at Centria, and will be reported in this paper.

The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is an important idea in developing intelligent transportation systems and self-driving cars. Vehicles with various wireless networking options can communicate both inside and outside the vehicles. IoVs with cognitive radio (CR) enable communication between vehicles in a variety of communication scenarios, increasing the rate of data transfer and bandwidth. The use of CR can meet the future need for quicker data transport between vehicles and infrastructure (V2I). Vehicles with CR capabilities on VANET have a different appearance than regular VANET vehicles. This paper aims to develop effective spectrum management for CR-equipped automobiles. An improved channel decision model has been proposed with proven outcomes to boost the pace of transmission, eliminate end-to-end delays, and minimize the number of handoffs. Many high-bandwidth channels will be used in the near future to communicate large-sized multimedia content between vehicles and roadside units (RSU) for both entertainment and safety purposes. Co-operative sensing promotes energy-constrained CR vehicles for sensing a wide spectrum, resulting in high-quality communication channels for requesting vehicles. Our research on the CR-VANET focuses on channel decision instead of spectrum sensing and it differs from previous studies. We used the DAHP–TOPSIS model under multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA), a sub-domain of operations research, to boost profits, i.e., transmission rate with less computing time. We constructed a test-bed in MATLAB and carried out several analyses to demonstrate that the suggested model performs better than other parallel MCDA models because there has been a limited amount of research work conducted with CR-VANET

Among the new trends in technology that have emerged through the Industry 4.0, Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) are crucial for the real-time data acquisition. This data acquisition, together with its transformation in valuable information, are indispensable for the development of real-time indicators. Moreover, real-time indicators provide companies with a competitive advantage over the competition since they enhance the calculus and speed up the decision-making and failure detection. Our research highlights the advantages of real-time data acquisition for supply chains, developing indicators that would be impossible to achieve with traditional systems, improving the accuracy of the existing ones and enhancing the real-time decision-making. Moreover, it brings out the importance of integrating technologies 4.0 in industry, in this case, CPS and IoT, and establishes the main points for a future research agenda of this topic.

With the fast development of IoT technologies and the potential of real-time data gathering, allowing decision makers to take advantage of real-time visibility on their processes, the rise of Digital Twins (DT) has attracted several research interests. DT are among the highest technological trends for the near future and their evolution is expected to transform the face of several industries and applications and opens the door to a huge number of possibilities. However, DT concept application remains at a cradle stage and it is mainly restricted to the manufacturing sector. In fact, its true potential will be revealed in many other sectors. In this research paper, we aim to propose a DT prototype for instore daily operations management and test its impact on daily operations management performances. More specifically, for this specific research work, we focus the impact analysis of DT in the fitting rooms’ area.
