Computing Incentives for User-Based Relocation in Carsharing

Carsharing offers an environmentally friendly alternative to private car ownership. However, carsharing providers face the challenging task of matching shifting vehicle supply with fluctuating customer demand to prevent related operational inefficiencies and ensure customer satisfaction. To date, researchers have improved existing relocation strategies and developed new concepts with the use of information technology tools. Still, current literature lacks research on optimization and implementation of user-based relocation solutions. The most urgent need currently lies in the development of algorithms to compute and implement effective incentives for user-based relocation. We address these needs by utilizing a design science research approach to develop an automated machine learning-based incentive computation solution for incentivizing user-based relocation. We use a survey of 274 participants resulting in 1370 individual data points to train an incentive computation model, which is then applied within a small-scale field test. Results suggest that the algorithm computes appropriate incentives

Real-World Sustainability Impact of Green Information Systems: Nudging People Towards Business Trip Ridesharing

To mitigate climate change and significantly lower greenhouse emissions, individuals need to behave in a more sustainable manner. With nearly one quarter of emissions stemming from transport, greener mobility services and transportation modes are in great need. The information system (IS) community has accepted responsibility to contribute to environmentally friendly technologies and actions. IS can play an important role in enabling and fostering user behavior changes, yet research is sparse on how IS usage and sustainable real-world behavior coincide. With commuting increasingly contributing to individual transport CO2 emissions, this study focuses on travels that employees carry out to commute. We model the real-world Business Trip Ridesharing (BTRS) behavior following the Theory of Planned Behavior—and likewise Green IS usage with the Technology Acceptance Model. The interlinkage of both realms was hypothesized using a Blended Environment (BE) framework. Drawing on a survey from a real-world case study with a large Western European company, our results indicate that (1) Green IS usage influences real-world BTRS behavior and (2) the antecedents of BTRS behavior influence the Green IS usage. We render support for the BE framework and imply scholars as well as practitioners should take both analog and digital realms into concurrent consideration

Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow - Perspectives on Green Information Systems Research Streams

Green IS is an emerging research field, addressing pressing matters such as resource efficiency, greenhouse gas emissions, and climate change. However, the topic of environmental sustainability is a cross cutting issue, leading to a somewhat fragmented research discourse. For instance, researchers investigating Sustainable Mobility and Sharing Economy might not be aware of research in the context of Green IS for Behaviour Changes. In this context, achieving interconnections of Green IS research sub-communities is necessary to reach a high level of sophistication on how to prevent our natural environment from deteriorating. Therefore, in order to gain a comprehensive overview of the body of Green IS research, this study follows a four staged research approach including a structured literature review, a citation network analysis, a concept centric content analysis, and a citation relationship analysis of Green IS research. Through this rigorous research approach, research streams, influential research papers, and the relationships between the different research areas were identified. Subsequently, this allows for the elicitation and formulation of research gaps, providing guidance for future research by formulating avenues for future research

Accepting Shared Autonomous Vehicles – An Industry Expert View

Shared Autonomous Vehicles (SAV) are expected to disrupt present shared mobility concepts, contributing to the aspects of the sharing economy. Numerous studies are lately being published in regards of SAV, illustrating future application, customer services but also its positive contribution to sociality and ecology. At present, a perspective from experts and customers mindset to gain future acceptance is extremely important. This paper aims to identify acceptance criteria for the use of a mobility concept combining autonomous driving and carsharing. As both of these innovative mobility concepts arise and become more common, an approach to combine both concepts seems evident. 28 semi-structured expert interviews are conducted in order to gain a widespread insight into possible customer acceptance criteria. Overall, ten user acceptance criteria could be derived with respect to a combined mobility concep

Digital Shared Mobility Services - A Literature Analysis and Avenues for IS-Related Future Research

Climate change is among the most important challenges faced by mankind. Individual transportation plays a significant role as a major contribution to greenhouse gases. In this context, Digital Shared Mobility Services (DSMS) can increase the efficiency of the existing means of transportation, for example by pooling individual rides. Despite increasing adaptation of different DSMS, a holistic appraisal is still missing. This article aims to provide a unified view of the DSMS landscape. By carrying out a pivotal literature analysis and post-hoc cluster analysis, five research areas are derived. These clusters lead to the formulation of a future research agenda, such as suggesting scholars to pay more attention to real-world behavior changes and upcoming mobility innovations like autonomous driving. In sum, this article supports both research and practice, eventually supporting information systems (IS) research as well as improving DSMS offers

Driving Future Mobility by Shared Mobility: A Taxonomy of Ridesharing Business Models

Recently, shared mobility has notably contributed to the discourse of the sharing economy. Ridesharing, with its diverse business model components, remains a prime example within this area. This paper introduces a taxonomy for business models in ridesharing, providing a classification scheme for the vast number of different business logic. This classification scheme allows existing providers as well as potential market entrants a strategic perspective on present structures and provides a basis for the systematic discovery of new and innovative business models. The applicability of the developed taxonomy for business model innovation is demonstrated by forming three novel business model archetypes for ridesharing as a means of corporate mobility management. Eventually, we discuss the implications for other areas of the sharing economy and potential future developments, such as shared autonomous mobility

Investigating end-user acceptance of autonomous electric buses to accelerate diffusion

To achieve the widespread diffusion of autonomous electric buses (AEBs) and thus harness their environmental potential, a broad acceptance of new technology-based mobility concepts must be fostered. Still, there remains little known about the factors determining their acceptance, especially in the combination of vehicles with alternative fuels and autonomous driving modes, as is the case with AEBs. In this study, we first conducted qualitative research to identify relevant factors influencing individual acceptance of autonomously driven electric buses. We then developed a comprehensive research model that was validated through a survey of 268 passengers of an AEB, operated in regular road traffic in Germany. The results indicate that a mix of individual factors, social impacts, and system characteristics determine an individual’s acceptance of AEBs. Notably, it is important that users perceive AEBs, not only as advantageous, but also trustworthy, enjoyable, and in a positive social light. Our research supplements the existing corpora by demonstrating the importance of individual acceptance and incorporating it to derive policy implications

Where Do You Want to Go Today: Understanding the Adoption of IS-Enabled Business Trip Ridesharing Services

Given the transportation sector’s significant contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, Business Trip Ridesharing (BTRS) is likely to become increasingly important as both policy and economic considerations require a rethinking within companies. With our study, we adapt the Theory of Planned Behavior to the BTRS context and add to the understanding of BTRS by examining employees’ behavioral antecedents. In exploring employees\u27 motivations for BTRS, we demonstrate an improved comprehension of the relevant factors under consideration for a successful introduction of BTRS. Our findings suggest the importance of attitude and perceived behavioral control on BTRS behavioral intention and adoption. Furthermore, a mediation analyses revealed an important role of Green Information Systems (GIS) as enabler for BTRS and strengthens the importance of BTRS for the GIS community
