In a peer-to-peer shared ride system, transportation clients with traffic demand negotiate with transportation hosts offering shared ride services for ad-hoc ridesharing in a continuously changing environment, using wireless geosensor networks. Due to the distinctive characteristic of this system—a complex and non-deterministic transportation network, and a local peer-to-peer communication strategy—clients will always have limited transportation knowledge, both from a spatial and a temporal perspective. Clients hear only from nearby hosts, and they do not know the future availability of current or new hosts. Clients can plan optimal trips prior to departure according to their current knowledge, but it is unlikely that these trips will be final optimal trip due to continuously changing traffic conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the trip quality in this dynamic environment in order to assess different communication and wayfinding strategies. (For complete abstract open document)
