Empty Vehicle Reallocation Analysis
• Dataframe for aTaxis, N long (state, origX, origY, destX, destY, endTime)• What is each aTaxi doing?
• Advance a loop by 0.1 seconds, and consider:• Are there departing trips that need to be carried out (e.g. matching
departure time in departure dataframe)?• If so, check if we can use a foreign aTaxi (by looking at the arrival
dataframe, backwards 10 minutes at the pixel we want)• If we can’t use a foreign aTaxi, deploy one of our own aTaxis
• If we have none left, STOP we need more aTaxis to operate
• Are there arriving trips that we can take advantage of (e.g. matching departure time in arrival dataframe)?• Check if any of our aTaxis are at that foreign pixel
• Are there any aTaxis that need to be updated?• Switch traveling to waiting• Switch waiting to repositioning
