Utilization of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) provides increasing demands on decreasing traffic congestions, transportation safety, and environmental problems as well as increasing transportation capacity. Over the past few years, one of the most disruptive and transformational technologies, blockchain technology, has emerged. As a result of offering more security, privacy, traceability, transparency, and decentralized authority, the utilization of blockchain technology in ITS have increased drastically. Despite this increase, there is a lack of a good understanding of what are the Critical Success Factors (CSF) to support IT providers for designing their products properly, and to provide industry leaders to focus on the main drivers of their outstanding projects. This study aims to explore and analyze CSFs that can facilitate the success of blockchain-based ITS, which has so far been neglected despite its remarkable relevance. In doing so, eleven primary studies, identified as a result of conducting a systematic literature review (SLR), were taken as a baseline to develop the model of CSFs. Additionally, since the number of existing studies related to CSFs for blockchain and ITS are limited, an expert panel was formed to evaluate and contribute to the model. The developed model of CSF for blockchain-based ITS, having a comprehensive approach, consists of 29 CSFs defined under five main contexts, namely technical, management, governance, quality of service, and quality of life.

Comparison of cooperative adaptive cruise control methods in idealistic and realistic scenarios
Aydın, Ahmed Buğra; Schmidt, Klaus Verner; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2021-9-10)
Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) aim at improving the efficiency and safety of transportation. In dense traffic, vehicles are aggregated to vehicle strings that travel on the same lane, whereby it is desired to maintain a small but safe distance between the vehicles in order to ensure driving comfort and safety. Cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) is a technology that is developed to address this issue. Hereby, the condition of string stability is highly relevant since it ensures the attenuat...
Realistic Simulation of IEEE 802.11p Channel in Mobile Vehicle to Vehicle Communication
Islam, Tarikul; Hu, Yongchang; Onur, Ertan; Boltjes, Bert; De Jongh, J. F. C. M. (2013-04-18)
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is becoming an important paradigm, because of its ability to enhance safety and to mitigate congestion on road traffic scenarios. Realizing the fact that data collection scheme from in-situ test beds for large number of vehicles is always expensive and time consuming, before being employed in large scale, such safety critical system should be tested narrowing down the gap between real circumstances and analytical models in a simulation platform. It is evident that un...
Assessing the Link between Rail Transit Usage and Multimodal Integration
Özgür Cevher, Özge; Altıntaşı, Oruç; Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye; Babalık Sutclıffe, Ela (null; 2016-01-08)
Current planning literature considers rail transit usage a function of neighborhood design (ND) parameters (such as density, diversity and connectivity) around station areas at a micro-level. However, during the early development stages of a rail transit system in a city, integration with the other modes may be equally influential on the rail transit usage, which must be determined. For this purpose, ridership data of 14 rail transit stations were evaluated based on both i) ND design parameters and ii) mult...
Evaluation of factors affecting mode choice of highspeed railway (HSR) users in Turkey
Dalkıç, Gülçin; Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye; Department of Civil Engineering (2017)
To change the current road dominancy in the intercity passenger transportation, Turkey has been establishing High-Speed Rail (HSR) services as a competitive mode since 2009. Currently there are four HSR lines connecting seven cities and three HSR lines under construction. In the scope of this study, a passenger survey was conducted at four stations of the currently serving HSR lines to obtain data on i) intercity mode choices of HSR users for different trip purposes, ii) alternative modes preferred in HSR c...
Developing multi-objective linear programming approaches for traffic signal optimization
Coşkun, Mustafa Murat; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Şener, Cevat; Department of Computer Engineering (2021-7)
In many countries and metropolitan cities, traffic congestion, mainly caused by population growth and the increase in urbanization, has reached a significant level and has become a major problem for residents and decision-makers. Today, although infrastructural strategies such as the construction of underpasses and road widening to alleviate traffic congestion are applied in urban networks, the strategies can also be quite costly and environmentally damaging. Therefore, decision makers allocate large bu...
