论文摘要
我们提出和调查通勤服务平台（CSP）的概念，该平台利用新兴的移动服务提供通勤服务，并将直接通勤者（雇员）及其工作人员（雇主）连接起来。通过应用双面市场分析框架，我们在哪个条件下显示了CSP可能呈现两侧性。然后分析了垄断和双重垄断的CSP。我们表明价格分配，即向通勤者和工作人员收取的价格，可能会影响CSP的参与和利润。我们还将需求限制添加到双重垄断模型中，以使工作人员和员工的参与率几乎相同。借助需求限制，两个CSP之间的竞争通常变得不那么激烈。就本文中的结果和发现如何帮助建立CSP以及如何制定新的，基于CSP的旅行需求管理策略，进行了讨论。
We propose and investigate the concept of commuting service platforms (CSP) that leverage emerging mobility services to provide commuting services and connect directly commuters (employees) and their worksites (employers). By applying the two-sided market analysis framework, we show under what conditions a CSP may present the two-sidedness. Both the monopoly and duopoly CSPs are then analyzed. We showhowthe price allocation, i.e., the prices charged to commuters and worksites, can impact the participation and profit of the CSPs. We also add demand constraints to the duopoly model so that the participation rates ofworksites and employees are (almost) the same. With demand constraints, the competition between the two CSPs becomes less intense in general. Discussions are presented on how the results and findings in this paper may help build CSP in practice and how to develop new, CSP-based travel demand management strategies.
