In tourism, autonomous electric vehicles may play an important role to provide ¡®last-mile solutions¡¯ facilitating multi-modality in moving tourists.
There are many ongoing studies which optimize operation cost about fleet sizing of transportation system based on queueing theory.
However, research to optimize initial investment is lacking.
Therefore, we suggest queueing theory-based investment minimization problem about introduction of the tourist transportation services with consideration of tourist¡¯s waiting time constraint from the perspective of tour operators and investors. This research may bring proliferation of autonomous electric vehicles in tourism to the table.
Further, it could be applied to similar circumstance or system. Not only the tourism industry but also various industries effort to introduce AV and EV. Accommodations are participating in the EV industry by setting up charging poles. So, we will research on methods to optimize accommodations' investment cost and profit
