1. [25 pts.] As an expert in your final-report topic, relate the situation at Autolib’ with the salient aspects of your research.
Autolib organization is an Electric car sharing organization which was initiated in Paris to alleviate several factors like traffic congestion, noise, and air pollution and yield people with more transit options. It was said that roughly about 70% of the Parisians do not have cars still there were more than 1 million people driving in the city each day and approximately about 10% of traffic in capital is looking for parking space which resulted in the congestions and emissions. To resolve these issues a logistic company IER, introduced this system which helps the drivers to reduce the costs by 90%, save time and provided easy access with the help of predictive analysis by analyzing all the facts which constitute to the critical benefits to the city of Paris.
To achieve all the major challenges IER faced a lot of Complexity’s where one of the most concerned factor is gathering of data and resolving it as they had many kiosks located throughout several parts of Paris. IER followed the basic principles where all the data collected is transformed into predictive insights to guide in front line decisions and interactions which helped them, hold on customer for long terms and increase its profitability. Therefore IER only gathered limited sets of data of Paris and its surrounding metropolitan areas and suburbs outside Paris where Parisians commute every day. Using Regression models all the data is collected and the relations between all the data is predicted which will help them for long term planning, development and give them clear picture for the expected solution by the year 2023 and help them implement ...

All the data which is being used will be processed based on knowledge base which will help Autolib develop their ideas and help them to achieve their goals. Finally we can say that the Autolib has used all the features of the knowledge base intelligence successfully to achieve the success for their organization and achieve a simple solution to solve complex problems. We can assume that Autolib along with IER has used most of the principles of KBS not only for designing a new solution but also delivered it in the time span of 7 months which has received high recognition among people and help them commute easily and save around 90% of their earnings by subscribing with their organization rather than maintaining a car and providing customers with more options, programs which support the vision of a greener city with less noise and air pollution.

However, there are several external environments that we have to concern. Technological factors are likely to shape the competitive conditions and are the risks involving in auditing. The Autopilot is one of Tesla vehicle’s feature. The Autopilot of Tesla has different technologies than other cars. “Tesla 's Autopilot is a suite of different technologies including the automatic lane-keeping assistance, automatic emergency braking, and advanced cruise control which automatically maintains a safe distance behind cars ahead on the highway.” Tesla’s autopilot system allow drivers to keep their hand off the steering wheel, which makes Tesla more humanized. However, Autopilot is not the perfect at all. There is a news in June involving Autopilot that caused car accident. I think that the Autopilot system is still blamed for some reasons. And the incident will inevitably raise questions about the performance of the technology in the future. Customers may think the system of Autopilot will make them in danger. However, Autopilot system of Tesla is a breakthrough technology for electric vehicles in the market. Environmental and Social factor are another two challenging for the
The future American commuter will undoubtedly have to transition from the use of fossil fuels to new alternatives due to the diminishing availability of the nation’s oil resources. How will America respond to this upcoming issue? It is difficult to predict which alternative fuel source America will ultimately choose, but with the premier of Nissan’s electric powered Leaf and other companies; such as Tesla Motors and Chevy, with their electric cars ready for market, the electric car may be winning the race to become the new standard for the gasoline alternative. Electric cars resolve long standing environmental issues, but it will need to maneuver around many roadblocks to become a marketable consideration for the general public. The cost of electric cars, currently on the market, makes them an impractical purchase for the average consumer. If cost is not the growing concern in today’s economy which prevents the consumer from considering this option; they may deny the technological advance due to battery storage capabilities and the inadequate infrastructure in place to refuel and provide for them.
In fact the electric vehicle has been regarded as the best alternative to fuel cars in the future. Because the electric vehicle will not run by fuel which has been considered by many experts in many years later will be exhausted. As a result, world’s auto giants competitively invest heavily in electric vehicle research and development. For instance Tesla Motors which has been the pioneer of electric vehicles in the world is now gaining ever-increasing popularity globally. Tesla Motors change the global energy structure and provide a paradigm shift to the automobile industry. Other than that it contributes a lot to solving dependency of global transportation on oil which is one of the most important culprits for global climate change. However Tesla also suffers from some flaws that hinder the development of electric vehicles. For example the expensive production costs make the market price of the Tesla is difficult to achieve expected standard. Consequently the electric vehicle is difficult as popular as a normal car. In fact ordinary consumers will pay more attention to the economy of a vehicle but not whether it is environmental friendly. In addition the low battery life cannot meet the needs of people travelling long distances. Actually Tesla Models has promised that they would establish rapid charging stations network across the United States and all of Tesla 's electric car charging stations can be quickly filled with
These issues could have been resolved if a proper market analysis was done. The outcome of this research could have suggested that it best suits highly populated areas. The objective of this research is to help a company or an entrepreneur understand the business environment better as well as customers’ needs and, therefore, make better business decisions. Once the market research data is compiled, it is then evaluated upon which recommendations and conclusions are drawn.
Installed systems inside vehicles have become a process of differentiation to understand customers looking for cars with more than just the ability to transport people from one point to another. Introducing of information systems inside vehicles has enabled manufacturers to provide their customers with extra functionality, by means of improving the desirability of the the product towards satisfying customers and at the same time enabling new business style and models through the supplying of efficient services to customers. And this changes the existence of competition in the automobile industry
Today, people use their own personal vehicles to travel more than ever before. Personal transportation is no longer considered a luxury; it is now considered a necessity. The number of cars in the United States has been growing steadily since the 1970s. The number of miles traveled by cars has risen nearly 150 percent, yet the United States population has only grown roughly 40 percent during that time (hybridcars.com, Driving Trends). Although it may seem like we are advancing into the future, in reality, we are moving backwards from the effects these vehicles have on our bodies and the environment. The pollution produced by these vehicles has brought us to the day where we must find other modes of transportation that cause less harm to the world in which we live. Advances in technology have developed hybrid vehicles to try and slow down the amount of pollution. Driving a hybrid vehicle, instead of a conventional gas powered vehicle, can reduce the amount of pollution that affects our lives and the environment around us.
Both of the two auto vehicles are brought into the human industry as the use of benefit students’ lives become more convenient traveler. In commons, the two automobile created opportunities jobs in the economic companies’ nation. Plus, several students did not noticed that both cars and public transportation have one major similar concept where two of the transit vehicle produce environmental pollution, traffic congestion, and oil consumption problems. Encounter, the public transportation and cars can cause a huge impact to the environmental which it can lead human health problems. Mostly, both of the automobile still release noxious gases into the air, and over time the built up can change the environment global warming to like an unhealthy
At the current time, automobiles and technology play an important role in our life, we need them to go anywhere. It seems that life is becoming more about technology. According with Auto Mechanics by Edward Little, “Actually, for most people the automobile is a part of a way of life; no longer a luxury, but a necessity for coping with the problems of day-to day living” (1). Auto mechanics play an important role in the keeping and repairing cars. They are essential in the automobile world, they are the ones that have the knowledge
The use of public transits, trains and buses has become less because of the increase in the number of users using their own vehicle for transportation. The more number of vehicles on the road increases the traffic and pollution causing and consumption of more fuel that causes
We all use vehicles for transportation. People usually go to their desired destination either by driving their own cars or traveling in public transportation. Actually, it might be tough to choose that which one is the best selection for people to travel. Many people choose one of them according to their comfort while traveling and both of them have advantages and disadvantages in different conditions. Public transportation and driving own car both shares differences and similarities in many aspects, such as facility, cost, and comfort as well as traffic jam and accident occurrence.
The processes of parking in the automated car and bike parking systems is discussed in this report as well as the positive and negative aspects for both systems. Although, these systems save people plenty of time finding parking, it is more expensive than the traditional parking. It is competitive to think about which one is more salient important than the other, saving time or money and that of coarse depends on the individual perspective. Overall, some people reject trying the innovations because of some concerns about its convenient storage while applying these types of innovations has satisfied others.
One of the major problems that face the Egyptian society is the traffic problem. The public transportation is now creating an obstacle for the people to use it. The people have hard times in reaching their destinations or in carrying any estimation about the time that would take them to reach their final destinations. Delay for their work and other problems would face the people. The population is increasing enormously in Egypt and thus, traffic would be an expected outcome. Public transportation is one of the main tools that the people would have to reach their jobs and their destinations. The public transportation is a low cost means of transportation if compared to the taxis and the private cars. According to the recent studies by the World Bank, Cairo is one of the cities that is witnessing traffic congestion. The accidents on the road ways are increased to reach around 4000 persons to be injured yearly in Cairo only and around 1000 person would die due to road related accidents in Cairo only. This percentage would be contributing to nearly half the pedestrians. (Khalifa, Mona; DaVanzo; Adamson. 2000) The public transportation would be numerous as public buses, metros and undergrounds metros. The traffic congestion in Cairo would be setting a financial burden on the Government, as it would cost the Government around fifty Billion Egyptian pounds per year. This amount of money is contributing to around 4 percent of the GDP growth rate of Egypt. This percent is also four times more than the costs estimated by any same size city. The loss of productivity would be one of the major effects and side effects of the traffic and the public transportation issues. The fuel consumption and the environmental pollution would be the major is...
Traffic congestion has become a huge problem in the developing countries, such as China and India. Nowadays a lot of people prefer to buy their own cars rather than using public transportation because they think it is more convenient and time-saving. Even though owning a car has so many advantages; however, it has certain setbacks as well, which outweighs the benefits. The more cars we have on roads, the more congestion we will have to deal with on daily basis. In the urban cities of China, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou traffic congestion is constantly increasing every year because people are buying more cars. Another reason for traffic congestion is that the government isn’t developing new transportation infrastructure, such as
Transportation is one of the major parts of our social life today. Living without any transportation means is unimaginable as the world has changed to a global village with the advent of new technologies and newer vehicles being introduced with higher speeds and less time consumption. People want faster and easy means of travelling to their destination in less time and low costs. To achieve their aims and goals people also have their own vehicles to travel on, but there is a large majority of people who can’t afford to buy even a motorcycle for them, and for such people, is the public transport in every part of the world.
