Internship: Dynamic Carpooling

I’ve just started an internship for my University. I’m working at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler, a research organization of the Autonomous Province of Trento that promotes research in the areas of science, technology, and humanities. In particular, I’m at the Center for Information Technology – Irst, in the SoNET explorative unit.
My research activity will last until the end of January and hopefully continue during the second semester, if the collaboration will be fruitful enough for a thesis.
The internship activities will focus on Dynamic Carpooling. I’m going to use my blog and the new category /carpooling-research to publish updates about the status of my research. We are going to purchase a domain that will also contain the outcomes of the research activities, available to the general public.
Here is a quick overview of the contents of my internship:

1. Dynamic Ridesharing Reviews

  • Review of existing papers
  • Review of existing web and mobile applications
  • Review of protocols
  • Research about the motivations of failure/success of existing realities

2. Release of Prototypes

  • API definition for Dynamic Carpooling
  • Implementation of a web application for Dynamic Carpooling
  • Implementation of a mobile application for Dynamic Carpooling
  • Possible integration with FBK systems
