- Abstract
Our basic model has two parts: to find the relationship between the waiting time and the rate of the vacant taxis arrive, and to find the relationship between the passenger flow volume and the rate of the taxi arriving in the area. In an extended model, we take the Scheduling efficiency into consideration. Finally, we discuss the different methods of taxi ride prices. We can find the waiting time is related to the rate of the vacant arriving in the area. The correlation of them is negative. We establish the relationship between the passenger flow volume and the rate of the taxi arriving. The total number of cabs is associated with the passenger flow volume and the vacancy rate. Then we can obtain the total number of cabs needed. According to the statistics, we get the total number of cabs needed is 514.
