Servitisation, which occurs when products are offered with service components as product-service bundles, has increased rapidly in consumer markets during recent years because of digitalisation. Digital technologies have enabled the emergence peer-to-peer marketplaces and made it possible for B2B lease rental actors to push B2C markets. Despite extensive research on servitisation, we know littl...

The supply of shared mobility solutions has been increasing during the last years, so popularity Mobility-as-a-Service. Both promise an easy access to and usage vehicles or rides. Nevertheless, these services remains low in German cities. Hence, question arises: what determines utility travellers regarding modes how is this different conventional modes? To answer this, we conduct a stated prefe...

Achieving sustainable freight transport and citizens’ mobility operations in modern cities are becoming critical issues for many governments. By analyzing big data streams generated through IoT devices, city planners now have the possibility to optimize traffic patterns. combined with innovative concepts as well emerging modes (e.g., ridesharing carsharing) constitute a new paradigm optimized s...

This paper designs a cluster-based electric vehicle relocation scheme for carsharing systems, aiming at generating a relocation schedule within a reasonable time bound by decomposing a large problem into several smaller ones. In order to develop a genetic algorithm for clustering, a feasible plan is encoded to an integer-valued vector in which intermediary stations locate at fixed positions and...
