Intelligent Taxi Dispatch System for Advance Reservations
Intelligent Taxi Dispatch System for Advance Reservations Hao Wang, Ningbo Institute of Technology, Zhejiang University Ruey Long Cheu, The University of Texas at El Paso Der-Horng Lee, The National University of Singapore Abstract This research proposes and tests a new taxi dispatch policy to improve the existing systems used by taxi companies in Singapore. The proposed method chains trips made by reserva- tions at least 30 minutes before the customer pick-up times. In this paper, the taxi dispatch- ing system, Singapore Taxi Advance Reservation (STAR), is defined. A novel trip-chaining strategy based on a customized algorithm of Pickup and Delivery Problem with Time Window (PDPTW) is proposed. The idea is to chain several taxi trips with demand time points that are spread out within a reasonable period of time and with each pick-up point in close proximity to the previous drop-off location. The strategy proposed has the poten- tial to lower the taxi reservation fee in Singapore to encourage advance reservations that facilitate trip chaining, which translates to lower taxi fares for customers, higher revenue for taxi drivers, and lower fleet ownership cost for taxi companies. Introduction Taxis are a popular transportation mode in the compact city state of Singapore. With the high cost of private vehicle ownership, taxis play an important role in offering an alternative transportation service. Fast and efficient fleet dispatching is essential to the provision of quality customer service in a competitive taxi industry. Satellite-based taxi dispatching systems, which track taxis using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, are currently deployed by taxi companies in Singapore.
