Abstract

In many cities in the world, ride sharing companies, such as Uber, Didi, Grab and Lyft, have been able to leverage on Internet-based platforms to conduct online decision making to connect passengers and drivers. These online platforms facilitate the integration of passengers and drivers’ mobility data on smart phones in real-time, which enables a convenient matching between demand and supply in real time. These clear operational advantages have motivated many similar shared service business models in the public transportation arena, and have been a disruptive force to the traditional taxi industry.
