Amulti-Agent Architecture for a Co-Modal Transport System

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 9

Abstract

Improving the co-modal transport and introducing systems for traveler information is becoming more and more urgent in our society in order to guarantee a high level of mobility in the long term. The goal of this research is to develop a distributed co-modal transport system that takes into account all possible means of transport including carpooling, vehicles on service and public transport and satisfies traveler’s queries, constraints and preferences. The main contribution of this work is to propose an innovative multi-agent approach to solve problems in wide co-modal transport networks. First, we propose a multi-agent architecture to model the system. Then we use a method to construct a co-modal transport network representation by categorizing the transport services and using transfer links and a distributed algorithm in order to resolve the shortest paths problem. We test our model and algorithms based on a case study in Lille, France. The experiments results on theoretical graphs as well as on real transport networks are very promising
