Abstract

In this paper, we presentZakaria, Rabih three relocationMoalic, Laurent policies forDib, Mohammad the relocation problemCaminada, Alexandre in one carsharing system. We implement these policies in a greedy algorithm to evaluate their performance. Compared with CPLEX, greedy algorithm proved that it is able to solve the most difficult system configurations in at most one second while providing good quality solutions. On the other side, greedy algorithm results show that relocation policies that do not rely on historical data, will not be very efficient in reducing rejected user demands, on the contrary they can contribute in increasing their number while increasing the total number of relocation operations.
