碩士 === 國立臺北教育大學 === 資訊科學系碩士班 === 100 === By the remarkable development of wireless internet and mobile computing technique these years, mobile messaging and positioning information has become a very important service, the penetration of smart mobile phone has been increasing, passengers can broadcast their demands though the short-range communicative smart mobile phone including the GPS coordinates of the passenger and other specific needs, by computer software automatically match and to choice the suitable taxi for the passengers, after confirm by passenger, when the dispatched taxi approaching it will reveal its location onto the automated service monitor or mobile phone. This technique uses the short-range distance communication, not only can be exempted from the telecom fee, for all the taxis whichever can receive the messages can respond to the message as well, also can avoid the deployed from long-distance taxi as the traditional single taxi fleet, which causes the passengers waiting too long, also the time consuming and expense wasting of a large amount of emitting carbon by vacant car. By using the vehicle positioning taxi dispatch system, it provides the 24-hour satellite monitoring and passenger service, but cannot control the actual road condition and passenger information which makes the driver not easy to arrange the best driving path or to determine whether to accept the dispatch, in order to improve taxi service quality and increase the revenue by increasing the passenger rate and shortening the driving distance, this study is using the communication and cooperation system among mobile agents by exchanging messages to achieve multi-way communication, the purpose is to set up a smart taxi automated dispatch system, under the circumstance of global petrol pricing increasing, to lead taxi achieve the environmental protection by saving energy and reducing carbon and to make the passengers enjoy the journey.
