Characterizing online cost-sharing mechanisms fordemand responsive transport systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Demand-responsive transport systems use shuttles to provide door-to-door shared-rides for its passengers. The operating cost of the shuttles depends on the pick-up and drop-off locations of the passengers. It is challenging to design a fair cost-sharing mechanism that offers fare quotes to potential passengers without having any knowledge of future ride requests since different passengers cause different amounts of inconvenience to other passengers. In this work, we study desirable properties of such cost-sharing mechanisms and present Proportional Online Cost Sharing.
