In recent years, with the advancements in information and communication technology, different emerging on-demand shared mobility services have been introduced as innovative solutions in the low-density areas, including on-demand transit…
One important problem in crowdsourcing is that of assigning tasks to workers. We consider a scenario where a worker is traveling on a preferred/typical path (e.g., from school to home) and there is a set of tasks available to be performed.…
Recent trends see a move away from a fixed-resource server-centric datacenter model to a more adaptable "disaggregated" datacenter model. These disaggregated datacenters can then dynamically group resources to the specific requirements of…
Dynamic Vehicle Routing Problem (DVRP), is an extension of the classic Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP), which is a fundamental problem in logistics and transportation. Typically, DVRPs involve two stakeholders: service providers that deliver…
While multimodal mobility systems have the potential to bring many benefits to travelers, drivers, the environment, and traffic congestion, such systems typically involve multiple non-cooperative decision-makers who may selfishly optimize…
Opportunistic scheduling and routing can in principle greatly increase the throughput of decentralized wireless networks, but to be practical they must do so with small amounts of timely side information. In this paper, we propose three…
Vehicle platooning, one of the advanced services supported by 5G NR-V2X, improves traffic efficiency in the connected intelligent transportation systems (C-ITSs). However, the packet delivery ratio of platoon communication, especially in…
Staff scheduling is a well-known problem in operations research and finds its application at hospitals, airports, supermarkets, and many others. Its goal is to assign shifts to staff members such that a certain objective function, e.g.…
The future of mobility-as-a-Service (Maas)should embrace an integrated system of ride-hailing, street-hailing and ride-sharing with optimised intelligent vehicle routing in response to a real-time, stochastic demand pattern. We aim to…
With the emergence of services and online applications as taxi dispatching, crowdsourcing, package or food delivery, industrials and researchers are paying attention to the online multi-task assignment optimization field to quickly and…
The Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) environment is known to be dynamic and distributed, where participants (vehicle users, operators, etc.) have multiple, changing and possibly conflicting objectives. Although Reinforcement Learning…
Ridesplitting -- a type of ride-hailing in which riders share vehicles with other riders -- has become a common travel mode in some major cities. This type of shared ride option is currently provided by transportation network companies…
The resilience of urban rapid transit systems (URTs) to a rapidly evolving threat space is of much concern. Extreme rainfall events are both intensifying and growing more frequent under continuing climate change, exposing transit systems to…
Bus rapid transit (BRT) systems are a cost-effective public transportation solution moving millions of passengers every day. To optimize their operation, it is usual to implement macroscopic models that neglect the microscopic details of…
This paper introduces an approach to harness digital twin (DT) technology in the realm of integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) in the sixth-generation (6G) Internet-of-everything (IoE) applications. We consider moving targets in a…
The ultimate goal of ridesharing systems is to matchtravelers who do not have a vehicle with those travelers whowant to share their vehicle. A good match can be found amongthose who have similar itineraries and time schedules. In thisway…
Allocating mobility resources (e.g., shared bikes/e-scooters, ride-sharing vehicles) is crucial for rebalancing the mobility demand and supply in the urban environments. We propose in this work a novel multi-agent reinforcement learning…
The proliferation of ride sharing systems is a major drive in the advancement of autonomous and electric vehicle technologies. This paper considers the joint routing, battery charging, and pricing problem faced by a profit-maximizing…
Ridesharing markets are complex: drivers are strategic, rider demand and driver availability are stochastic, and complex city-scale phenomena like weather induce large scale correlation across space and time. At the same time, past work has…
Modern multi-access 5G+ networks provide mobile terminals with additional capacity, improving network stability and performance. However, in highly mobile environments such as vehicular networks, supporting multi-access connectivity remains…
