  • Abstract
    Carpooling or ride-sharing is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. Carpooling reduces each person´s travel costs such as fuel costs, tolls, and the stress of driving. This research focuses on implementing a ride-sharing solution in Sri Lanka using a multiagent system through the communication, negotiation and coordination of agents.
