Lecture by Professor Adriano Alessandrini “Advanced sharing and on-demand transport services dimensioning and managing them”

The lecture titled “Advanced sharing and on-demand transport services dimensioning and managing them” was delivered by Professor at DICeA – Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile e Ambientale, Università degli Studi di Firenze Adriano Alessandrini on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, at 15:00 in Room A of the Civil Engineering Department.
The event was broadcast live via MS Teams, on the department’s YouTube channel, and through the DIAVLOS service.
ABSTRACT
On-demand transport services are very effective to respond to needs of people moving but very expensive to supply; sharing services are effective only in areas where transport demand is isotropic and not in urban peripheries where they would be mostly needed.
However, combining different sharing services, new cost-effective ones can be implemented. TUSS – The Ultimate Sharing Services combines sharing and pooling to make last mile services cost-effective.
The service dimensioning is done as any on-demand service solving the DARP (Dial A Ride Problem). Methods algorithms and software will be presented.
