Query: A Simulation-based Optimization Approach to Efficiently Route Air Taxis
  in a Cyber-Physical Network   Besides air pollution and commuter stress, traffic congestions also lead to
loss of productivity, increase in delay, vehicle operating cost, and accidents.
To assuage these issues, several logistics companies are planning to launch air
taxis, electric-powered vehicles that aim to provide faster passenger commutes
on a daily basis at an affordable cost. This research is one of the first to
propose a centralized framework to dispatch and route flying taxis in a
cyber-physical network considering unique constraints pertaining to air taxi
operations. The feasibility of the proposed approach is tested using potential
air taxi demands in New York City (NYC) provided by a prior study. The results
of the experimentation suggest that the minimum number of air taxis required
for efficient operation in NYC is 84, functioning with an average utilization
rate of 66%. In addition, the impacts of commuter willingness to fly rate,
percentage of demand fulfillment, on-road travel limit, maximum customer wait
time, and arrival distribution on the optimal number of air taxis, utilization
rate, number of customers served and cost incurred per customer are examined.
Analyses show that the willingness to fly rate appears to have a linear
influence on the number of air taxis and the efficiency, while on-road travel
distance has an exponential impact on the performance measures. The routing and
dispatching algorithm developed in this paper can be used by any company that
is interested in venturing into the air taxi market.
