Description: "This literature review supports the report, Recent International Activity in Cooperative Vehicle-Highway Automation Systems. It reviews the published literature in English dating from 2007 or later about non-U.S.-based work on cooperative vehicle-highway automation systems. This review covers work performed in Europe and Japan, with application to transit buses, heavy trucks, and passenger cars. In addition to fully automated driving of the vehicles without human intervention, it also covers partial automation systems, which automate subsets of the total driving process. Recent International Activity in Cooperative Vehicle Highway Automation Systems is published separately as FHWA-HRT-12-033. These publications have been prepared with the support of the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Exploratory Advanced Research Program under the technical supervision of the FHWA Turner Fairbank Highway Research Program's Office of Operations Research and Development."--p. i-ii
