Types of Agents in Peer-to-Peer Shared Ride Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shared ride systems match the travel demand of transport clients with the supply by vehicles, or hosts, such that the clients find rides to their destinations. A peer-to-peer shared ride system allows clients to find rides in an ad-hoc manner, by negotiating directly with nearby hosts via radio-based communication. Such a peer-to-peer shared ride system has to deal with various types of hosts, such as private cars and mass transport vehicles. Their different behaviors affect the negotiation process, and consequently the travel choices. In this paper, we present and discuss a model of a peerto-peer shared ride system with different types of agents. The behavior of the model is investigated in a simulation of different communication and way-finding strategies. We demonstrate that different types of agents enrich the choices of the clients, and lead to local solutions that are nearly optimal.

In a peer-to-peer shared ride system, transportation clients with traffic demand negotiate with transportation hosts offering shared ride services for ad-hoc ride sharing in a continuously changing environment, using wireless geosensor networks. Due to the distinctive characteristic of this system—a complex and nondeterministic transportation network, and a local peer-to-peer communication stra...

Many people die each year due to smoking. Social pressures, such as peer pressure, which are manifested in one's interactions with his/her peers, are from very effective factors in people's tendency to smoke. In this research, it was attempted to study and analyze peer pressure in smoking and its impact on some of the welfare indicators including mortality number due to starvation, wealth avera...
