  • Abstract
    Seattle Smart Traveler (SST) is an application of World Wide Web (WWW) technology to test the concept of automated dynamic ride-share matching. This paper reports a new statistical model for quantifying ride-share matching and car pooling. The model is validated using the SST experimental results, and the model demonstrates that the car-pooling process is a quadratic function of the number of users participating
