In this joint work with Prof. Allahviranloo from CCNY, we studied the design of autonomous vehicle fleets for households purchased shared ownership, like stocks, of each vehicle. Under such a system, owners can therefore trade stocks of these time slots, and the impact of a time slot on a user’s activity schedule needs to be accounted for. This work should be of interest to car manufacturers like Ford and GM as they move into these types of AV business models in the future.
