Transport or transportation is the movement of people and goods from one location to another. In the ICT context, it can refer to ICT applications for this kind of physical transport (see below Challenge 6) or optical transport e.g. infrastructures.
Transport is addressed in the ICT work programme 2011/12 (p. 13, 24, 36, 43, 48, 60, 70, 74, 80, 81, 83, 103, 111, 117)under the following challenges/ objectives:
