Abstract
Ridesharing is one of the most cost effective alternative transportation modes with high potential in reducing the greenhouse gas emissions and decreasing the amount of traffic in the streets. The paper extends the earlier presented approach to building sustainable logistics system for ridesharing support based on the idea of smart spaces, where various electronic devices can seamlessly access all required information distributed in the multi-device system from any of the devices. In particular, the paper describes broker as a main component of the system and algorithms used for its performance optimization. The Smart-M3 open source platform was chosen as a basis for the proposed approach.
