Simulation platform development for reserved car market

The two last years, the emergence of car mobile applications (Uber for example) has disturbed the taxi industry. This new market is becoming more predominant and no solution has been found to reach an objective equilibrium with the older modes of transport. This problem is appearing all around the world with different companies depending on the country. By analyzing a group of precise data and with complex simulations gathering the different transport modes, the project wants to have a better comprehension of this new phenomenon. Its goal is to propose new ideas and new approaches in order to come closer to a fair solution.
