Optimizing Locations for a Vehicle Sharing System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Car-sharing business provides members access to a fleet of shared-use vehicles in a network of locations on a short-term, as-needed basis. It allows individuals to gain the benefits of private vehicle use without the costs and responsibilities of ownership. The primary advantage of car sharing as opposed to the car rental business is that it provides flexibility of using the vehicles for shorter periods of time. Secondly if you are a registered customer of the company, the process of accessing and using the vehicle is quite simple, self-serving and hassle-free.
