A multi-agent system approach to ridesharing for older people: state-of-the-art work and preliminary desig
Résumé
Ridesharing has disrupted the entire transport sector in the
last decade, causing a cultural shift in the general population,
but not so much in the older generations. In a previous
paper, we proposed a multi-agent systems (MAS) approach
for modelling and building an innovative ridesharing service
tackling this lack of utilisation by older people. After
having identified the obstacles that are impeding this utilisation,
we dealt with each through MAS techniques. In this
paper, we investigate the state of the art around these MAS
techniques and describe the competing models for modelling
each component of our multi-agent system, IMOPOP.
