Succeeding to the 1st IEEE International Conference on Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments
( IEEE WAVE 2008 , http://groups.engin.umd.umich.edu/hpceep/wave2008/ ),
IEEE WAVE 2009 will be held on December 21-22, 2009 at the Tongji University, Shanghai, China by bringing together leading researchers, engineers and managers from Industry, Government and Academia to discuss both the issues and research in the areas associated with WAVE, Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANET), Intelligent transportation systems (ITS), Telemetric and IntelliDrive.

Concurrently, an Industrial and Commercialization workshop will be hold at Detroit, Michigan, USA with IEEE WAVE 2009, which provides an opportunity to communicate with professionals from American automobile industry.

Papers will be indexed by EI Compendex (pending). Accepted papers have the option to be published by the International Journal of Ultra Wide band Communications and Systems.
