Özet:

In this study, a decision support system prototype is developed to solve the demand-based vehicle assignment problem within the scope of autonomous-shared vehicle management systems. First, a database suitable for the demand structure is designed for the developed decision support system prototype. Then, a user-friendly, web-based interface is designed so that customer requests can be stored and viewed by the system administrator in an integrated system design. An example case study is used to illustrate the system implementation where the city center of Bursa with its high urban traffic density is considered. In the case study, three parking stations are assumed to be located in three different central districts (namely Yıldırım, Osmangazi and Nilüfer) through the east-west direction of the city in order to meet customer demands. A multi-commodity network flow problem-based model is used to solve the vehicle assignment problem. It is thought that it will be beneficial in terms of the efficiency of the rapidly growing enterprises of shared-vehicle services to optimize their vehicle relocations and other operations using decision support systems similar to the one developed in this study.
