报告摘要:Recently, there has been a rapid rise of on-demand ride-hailing platforms, such as Uber and Didi, which allow passengers with smart phones to submit trip requests and match them to drivers based on their locations and drivers' availability. This increased demand has raised questions about how such a new matching mechanism will affect the eciency of the transportation system, in particular, whether it will help reduce passengers' average waiting time compared to traditional street-hailing systems. We shed light on this question by building a stylized model of a circular road and comparing the average waiting times of passengers under various matching mechanisms. We discover the ineciency in the on-demand ride-hailing system when the en route time is long, which may result in non-monotonicity of passengers' average waiting time as passenger arrival rate increases.
