The classic Dial-A-Ride Problem (DARP) aims at designing the minimum-cost routing that accommodates a set of user requests under constraints at an operations planning level, where users' preferences and revenue management are often…

Dynamic ride-sharing services, including ride-pooling offered by ride-hailing platforms and demand-responsive buses, have become an essential part of urban mobility systems. These services cater to personalized and on-demand mobility…

Micro-transit services offer a promising solution to enhance urban mobility and access, particularly by complementing existing public transit. However, effectively designing these services requires determining optimal service zones for…

The potential of integrating public transit with ridesharing includes shorter travel time for commuters and higher occupancy rate of personal vehicles and public transit ridership. In this paper, we describe a centralized transit system…

Integrating demand-responsive mobility services with transit systems is recognized as a practical and effective strategy to mitigate their impact on traffic congestion and the environment. This study develops an efficient hybrid…

We study real-time routing policies in smart transit systems, where the platform has a combination of cars and high-capacity vehicles (e.g., buses or shuttles) and seeks to serve a set of incoming trip requests. The platform can use its…

The emergence of on-demand ride pooling services allows each vehicle to serve multiple passengers at a time, thus increasing drivers' income and enabling passengers to travel at lower prices than taxi/car on-demand services (only one…

We present a probabilistic proactive rebalancing method and speed-up techniques for improving the performance of a state-of-the-art real-time high-capacity fleet management framework [1]. We improve on both computational efficiency and…

On-demand ridepooling systems offer flexible services pooling multiple passengers into one vehicle, complementing traditional bus services. We propose a transportation system combining the spatial aspects of a fixed sequence of bus stops…

We propose a centralized transportation system that integrates public transit with ridesharing to provide multimodal transportation. At each time interval, the system receives a set of personal drivers, designated drivers, and public…

In dynamic ride-sharing systems, intelligent repositioning of idle vehicles enables service providers to maximize vehicle utilization and minimize request rejection rates as well as customer waiting times. In current practice, this task is…

Ridesharing services have revolutionized personal mobility, offering convenient on-demand transportation anytime. While early proponents of ridesharing suggested that these services would reduce the overall carbon emissions of the…

Given different types of constraints on human life, people must make decisions that satisfy social activity needs. Minimizing costs (i.e., distance, time, or money) associated with travel plays an important role in perceived and realized…

This study presents a multi-zone queuing network model for steady-state ride-pooling operations that serve heterogeneous demand, and then builds upon this model to optimize the design of ride-pooling services. Spatial heterogeneity is…

Drivers on the Lyft rideshare platform do not always know where the areas of supply shortage are in real time. This lack of information hurts both riders trying to find a ride and drivers trying to determine how to maximize their earnings…

Autonomous Mobility On Demand (MOD) systems can utilize fleet management strategies in order to provide a high customer quality of service (QoS). Previous works on autonomous MOD systems have developed methods for rebalancing single…

Shared rides are often considered to be a promising travel alternative that could efficiently pool people together while offering a door-to-door service. Notwithstanding, even though demand distribution patterns are expected to greatly…

Rapid urbanization has led to a surge of customizable mobility demand in urban areas, which makes on-demand services increasingly popular. On-demand services are flexible while reducing the need for private cars, thus mitigating congestion…

Mobility-on-demand systems are transforming the way we think about the transportation of people and goods. Most research effort has been placed on scalability issues for systems with a large number of agents and simple pick-up/drop-off…

A peer to peer ridesharing system connects drivers who are using their personal vehicles to conduct their daily activities with passengers who are looking for rides. A well-designed and properly implemented ridesharing system can bring…
