Computerized systems are increasingly used in all forms of transportation- providing a wide range of functions to improve safety and enhance passenger experience from positive train control in railways, in-vehicle-infotainment (IVI) in personal auto, taxis, and public buses, and fleet management to name just a few. I am providing links to some community posts on this topic that I think are particularly useful:
