Demand-capacity coordination method in autonomous public transportation

Optimal Route Selection for Autonomous Vehicle Public Transportation System

Wireless Sensor Networks in VANETs and how they have to exchange the traffic information among vehicles in order to achieve seamless service extensions due to unpredictable requests and broadcast chains in the network. To function this there are two possible approaches the push model and other is pull model. The goal of the data push communication model is to exchange information about the posi...

Transportation on Demand

Transportation Demand Management

Rolling out of bed, José checks his CommuterAlert traveler information system while his coffee brews. The regional commuter assistance program was offering the system through a local automobile dealer when José purchased the family's vehicle. CommuterAlert is predicting that his 10-mile commute on I-275, which normally takes 29 minutes, will now take 46 to 52 minutes. In his printer are identif...

Routing Autonomous Vehicles in Congested Transportation Networks: Structural Properties and Coordination Algorithms

This paper considers the problem of routing and rebalancing a shared fleet of autonomous (i.e., self-driving) vehicles providing on-demand mobility within a capacitated transportation network, where congestion might disrupt throughput. We model the problem within a network flow framework and show that under relatively mild assumptions the rebalancing vehicles, if properly coordinated, do not le...

Supply Chain Coordination using Different Modes of Transportation Considering Stochastic Price-Dependent Demand and Periodic Review Replenishment Policy

In this paper, an incentive scheme based on crashing lead time is proposed to coordinate a supplier-retailer supply chain (SC). In the investigated SC, the supplier applies a lot-for-lot replenishment policy to replenish its stock and determines the replenishment multiplier. Moreover, the transportation lead time is considered under the control of the supplier. The retailer as downstream member...
