ABSTRACT

Genesis and ATIS are being developed under the umbrella of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems to facilitate various kinds of travel, including daily commuting to work via private/public transportation and visiting new places and points of attraction. Travelers are naturally mobile, and the most effective way to aid travelers is via mobile computing, which is being explored in the Genesis project at Minnesota. The travelers can use personal communication devices including pagers and portable computers (e.g. Apple Newton) to avail themselves of the ATIS services provided by Genesis. This extended abstract presents an overview of the goals and preliminary design of Genesis. We believe that ATIS provides a very important commercial application of mobile computing and can bring mobile computing to mass markets. This paper focuses on describing the application domain rather than evaluating candidate solutions. Keywords:
