An Effective Distributed Ride-Sharing Framework on Large-Scale Road Networks
摘要
This paper presents a Distributed Ride-Sharing Framework (DRSF) designed to enhance the efficiency of driver-rider matching in large-scale road networks. Unlike traditional centralized ride-sharing systems, DRSF partitions the road network into multiple sub-networks, each managed by a separate compute node. These compute nodes process local matching in parallel using the Multi-Capacity Matching (MCM) algorithm, and then send their matching results to a central server, which merges all the results. In addition, the modular design of DRSF supports the integration of existing matching algorithms. Extensive experiments on two real-world datasets show that DRSF significantly improves computational efficiency compared to the current state-of-the-art centralized methods.
