DC2S: a Dynamic Car Sharing System

摘要

This paper presents DC2S, a dynamic car sharing system. It aims to solve traffic congestion problem by reducing empty seats traveling. In DC2S, dynamic means pervasive and smart. DC2S involves two main components. One is the pervasive client (mainly smart phones) and the other is the smart server. Smart phones automatically log and share users' traveling information. The DC2S server then intelligently analyzes and dynamically matches among users with similar traveling needs. Therefore, users are pervasively connected to each other by smart phones via DC2S servers. They do not need to plan their journey in advance or rely on other certain people. DC2S also gives users intelligent reminders and dynamic recommendations. To be user friendly, DC2S reduces user manual operation on data input and event processing.
