Smart Logistic Service for Dynamic Ridesharing

摘要

The paper describes a service-based approach to dynamic ridesharing based on the smart space concept. Presented system allows planning and assisting a tourist for museum attending and finds a driver for reaching the museums. The paper applies an approach presented in FRUCT 11 to assisting tourists in a certain area (e.g., in a given city). Smart-M3 information platform is used as a smart space infrastructure for the presented approach. The service is based on the Smart-M3 ontology which is formed by ontology slices of user's mobile devices. The paper presents an algorithm for finding appropriate fellow-travelers for drivers as well as definition of acceptable pick-up and drop-off points for them.
