Carpooling is a social service par excellence. Solidarity between people or within identified groups, contracting service and confidence in service when hazards can occur, safety of the service provided (not only the ICT information provided but also the operated travel when an itinerary path is computed), and sometimes confidentiality agreements or ...

A social network for carpooling
Proceedings of the 7th Euro American Conference on Telematics and Information Systems, 2014The larger amount of motor vehicles produces many problems to cities around the world as poor urban mobility, environment concerns and people's health. The encouragement to use alternative means of transport, such as bicycles or subways is one of the steps to solve the problem. Another way is to encouraging the optimal usage of private automobiles.

TicTac: From transfer-incapable carpooling to transfer-allowed carpooling
2012 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM), 2012Current transfer-incapable carpooling (TIC) scheme cannot fully utilize vehicles' available space because a carpooling passenger has to go from her origin to her destination by getting a ride from only one vehicle. This is akin to insist on delivering some packets only using one-hop communications, which usually performs worse than allowing multi-hop ...

The models and economics of carpools [PDF]
The Annals of Regional Science, 2000 For studying carpooling problems, this paper presents two models, namely deterministic and stochastic, and gives the economic explanations to the model solutions. We investigate the jockeying behavior of work commuters between carpooling and driving alone modes through solving each model for both no-toll equilibrium and social optimum.

A Fair Carpool Scheduling Algorithm
IBM Journal of Research and Development, 1983We present a simple carpool scheduling algorithm in which no penalty is assessed to a carpool member who does not ride on any given day. The algorithm is shown to be fair, in a certain reasonable sense. The amount of bookkeeping grows only linearly with the number of carpool members.

Transportation is a major issue in our world today. Traditional problems of transit, once thought of as a strictly civil engineering difficulty, are increasingly being revisited and recognized as a critical environmental crisis. Transportation accounts for about 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions [1].

The Offline Carpool Problem Revisited
2015The carpool problem is to schedule for every time \(t\in \mathbb {N}\) l tasks taken from the set [n] (\(n\ge 2\)). Each task i has a weight \(w_{i}(t)\ge 0\), where \(\sum _{i=1}^n w_{i}(t)=l\). We let \(c_i(t)\in \{0,1\}\) be 1 iff task i is scheduled at time t, where (carpool condition) \(w_i(t)=0\Rightarrow c_i(t)=0\).

Economic Inquiry, 1984
The paper shows how separate parts of a work trip enter the decision to carpool, and examines how the size of a carpool is related to the gasoline price, the wage rate, speed limits, and other factors. The paper also suggests that policies designed to promote carpooling may produce perverse effects on gasoline consumption.

The Carpool: A Socializing Adjunct to the Educational Experience*†
Sociology of Education, 1984Many locations, modes, and agents of socialization have been examined by sociologists, but there is one that remains conceptually unexplored: the carpool. Carpool socialization falls wtithin the overlapping influence of three primary socializing agents: the peer group, the family, and the school.
