Optimizing ride-sharing operations in smart sustainable cities: Challenges and the need for agile algorithms

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an updated review on car-sharing optimization studies (including ride-sharing and carpooling), compares different analytical approaches in this research area, and discusses the emerging concept of "agile" algorithms as one of the approaches that might contribute to deal with the requirements of large-scale and dynamic car sharing optimization problems.

Matching and pricing in ride-sharing: Optimality, stability, and financial sustainability

TL;DR: This paper addresses two key subproblems to find a ride-sharing solution: matching drivers and riders to achieve the system-wide optimality and allocating the resulting travel-cost saving among them by considering their self interests or the stability of the solution.
