ABSTRACT

Share a ride is the sharing of vehicle journeys so that more than one person travels in the
vehicle by having more one vehicle. Share a ride reduces each person’s travels costs such
as fuel costs, tolls and the stress of during. Share a ride is also seen as a more
environmentally, friendly and sustainable way to travel as sharing journeys reduces carbon
emissions. Traffic congestion on the roads and need for parking spaces. Authorities often
encourage share a ride, especially during high pollution periods and high fuel prices. We
intent on making an android based application that will enable to let people know if vehicles
are available for share a ride in their desired route. This will enable people using this
application to share expense, not warry about hiring a cab and making new connections.
People having this application on their cell phone can easily share a ride with unacquainted.
Share a ride has become a practical, cheap and stress-free way to move around.

Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 Problem Summary and Introduction

Users of smart phone increasing every day. These platforms have introduced the android
application that runs on the android devices. Our project is a 1 year UDP. We have
developed an android application that is capable of running on android devices. These
devices include mobiles and tablets. Share a ride tries to reduce the cost of the journey for
a vehicle owner who commutes to work daily which not only will save their pocket but will
also reduce the usage of most important non-renewable resource we have i.e. fuel,
environment.

This application will have two kinds of users. Firstly, the vehicle owner who use their own
vehicle to commute to work daily. This vehicle owner can use our application to create
their profiles as a vehicle owner and mention their route and all kind of detail mentioned in
that page. Secondly passengers can use this application to find vehicle owner who have
same source and destination. Passenger can search for journey by using the application.

This project is just an effort to make these two ends meet vehicle owners and passenger
and build a bond of trust for their own sake and do a bit of favour to the environment being
and educated and responsive citizen.

1.2 Aim and objective of the project

Our goal is to develop an android based application which will enable the user to share the
ride according to their desired route. People will share own private vehicle. This will be
especially useful for those people who have not vehicle. This application is also beneficial
for vehicle owner to save money. This application is reduce the traffic, save fuel, reduce
global warming and pollution in city.

1.3 Problem Specification

The problem of the project is limited to users who always have not internet connectivity on
their phone. The application does not work if the mobile does not support GPS. If the GPS
does not work properly then it did not find latitude and longitude so that it did not calculate
path distance.

1.4 Brief literature review and Prior Art Search (PAS) about the project

We performed a thorough web search and went through various websites and forums and
noted the various problems faced by users and their needs and requirements for our problem
domain. We also got feedback from a few users. Therefore we also designed our application
keeping ourselves as the users in mind too.

In our market search, we observed and noted the huge use of the android phone in the world.
Every day many of peoples are go their working place by their own vehicle, but they do
not share a vehicle with another person across the world.

We also performed patent search and analysis. We went through a large number of patents
and came up with ten patents that were most related to our problem area. We shall attach
the PSAR reports at the end for reference.

We studied patents regarding vehicle sharing system and ride sharing system. In vehicle
sharing system includes vehicle selection and vehicle allocation based on a various
algorithm.

1.5 Plan of our work

Project planning process was divided into two phases. The first phase included requirement
gathering and analysis, design and modeling. In the next phase, system development would
begin. This would include the user interface design, coding and testing of our admin website
panel and android application.

In our 7th semester, we completed the requirement gathering and analysis for the project.
We have also finished modeling and preparation of related documents. Other activities
performed included study of relevant patents for PSAR and development of various
canvases such as the AEIOU Canvas, Empathy Summary Canvas, Ideation Canvas and
Product Development Canvas which have been useful in the understanding of the goals of
the project. We are designing the data dictionary and created and implemented the database.
And we also started working on the development of the admin panel using bootstrap and
PHP. During the 8th semester, we continued developing the admin panel and began planning
our user interface design for our android application concurrently. The entire duration has
been a learning phase for new concepts and technologies that were implemented in the
project.

1.6.3 PHP

PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development but also used as a
general-purpose programming language. PHP could be used to build simple, dynamic web
applications.

PHP code may be embedded into HTML code, or it can be used in combination with various
web template systems, web content management systems, and web frameworks. PHP code
is usually processed by a PHP interpreter implemented as a module in the web server or as
a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) executable. The web server combines the results of
the interpreted and executed PHP code, which may be any type of data, including images,
with the generated web page. PHP code may also be executed with a command-line
interface (CLI) and can be used to implement standalone graphical applications.

1.6.4 MySQL
MySQL is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS).MySQL is a
popular choice of database for use in web applications and is a central component of the
widely used LAMP open-source web application software stack (and other "AMP" stacks).
LAMP is an acronym for "Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl /PHP/Python". Free-software
open-source projects that require a full-featured database management system often use
MySQL. Applications that use the MySQL database include Joomla, WordPress, Drupal
and other software. MySQL is also used in many high-profile, large-scale websites,
including Google.
1.6.5 XAMPP
XAMPP is a free and open source cross-platform web server solution stack package
develop by Apache, consisting mainly of the apache HTTP server, Maria DB database, and
interpreters for a script written in the PHP and Perl programming languages. XAMPP
stands for cross-platform (X), Apache (A), Maria DB (M), PHP (P), and Perl (P). It is
simple light weight apache distribution that makes it extremely easy for developers to create
a local web server for testing and deployment purpose. XAMPP is also cross-platform,
which means it works equally well on Linux, Mac, and Windows.
1.6.6 Android Studio

2.2.3 Ideation Canvas

An ideation canvas is a rough whiteboard/sheet where ideas can be stretched to any limits
or dimensions. Its aim is to define the best possible problem and stretch out its possible
scope. The field is set and the overall agenda is to build the clones of the ideas and pivot
them throughout the canvas so as to discover new possibilities.

The Ideation Canvas contains four main sections. These are discussed as follows:

People – We could segment them into various groups on the basis of their profession, their
age, and other characteristics. The people in our Ideation Canvas categorize Student,
Teacher, Doctor, Employees, Manager, Tourist, and Engineer etc.

Activities – Since we had decided that an Android application could best help meet the
needs and requirements of the users we noted the following activities:

The users would be able to perform activities such as vehicle registration, passenger
registration, vehicle owner registration, create a journey, diving, pay a ride etc.

The user shall be able to create their own unique profile with some mandatory information
like name, gender, address, contact number, profile Image, date of birth etc. The vehicle
owner can register their own vehicle with details of vehicle model, vehicle number, vehicle
image, vehicle name etc. After the registered vehicle, vehicle owner creates a journey with
mandatory information like adding source, destination, rupees per km charge, departure
date, departure time, journey type etc.

Situation/Context/Location – Every above mentioned activity can be done in a different

situation, location or context. The users could use the application in various locations e.g.
emergency for the hospital, emergency for job or meeting and when traveling for company
tour and family tour etc. The users would use the application for decision-making purposes.
And they would only be able to use the application if they were using an android device.

Possible Solution – These are the objects, technologies or solutions which may be possible
outcomes to your idea/challenge. It contains tools and objects such as XAMPP, GSM, GPS,
Internet, PHP, MySQL, Android Studio, Computer, Smart Phone, Laptop and Tablet etc.

2.2.4 Product Development Canvas

The Product Development contains the following sections:

People – We could segment them into various groups on the basis of their profession, their
age, and other characteristics. The people in our Ideation Canvas categorize Student,
Teacher, Doctor, Employees, Manager, Tourist, and Engineer etc.

Purpose – Share a ride is an android application with help to get private vehicles on our
desire route. The user leaves in any area connect to with application. It is an initiative to
reduce traffic and pollution on the road. Connecting vehicle owners and co-travelers to
share city-to-city journey.

Product Experience – This will be more useful for those people who have not the vehicle.
This application is also beneficial for the vehicle owner to save money. This application
reduces the traffic, save fuel, reduce global warming and pollution in the city.

Product features – The features of this application include push notification, providing
vehicle information, providing trip information, registration with OTP, vehicle is Ac or
non-Ac and smoking or non-smoking etc.

Components – Components of our product include a computer, the internet, vehicle, smart
phone, electricity, GPS, and laptop etc.

Customer Revalidation – The customer can revalidate the search functions and filters, the
internet speed and response time and the ease of use of the application.

2.3 System Design and Modelling Diagrams

The system design and modeling diagrams help us to better understand the system for which
we will be coding for in the next phase.

The following diagrams show how the user would act and interact with the system and the
various activities the user would perform:

2.3.1 Notations

2.3.1.1 Notation of Use Case Diagram

In software and systems engineering, a use case list of steps, typically defining Interactions
between a role (known in UML as an "actor”) and a system, to achieve a goal. The actor
can be a human or an external system.

SYMBOL NAME DESCRIPTION

System’s boundaries using a

System rectangle System that contains
use cases. Place actors outside
the system’s boundaries.

Use cases using ovals. Label

with ovals with verbs that
Use case represent the system’s
Functions.
Actors are the users of the
system. When one system is the
Actors actor of the system, label the
actor system with the actor
stereotype.

2.3.1.2 Notation of Activity diagram

An Activity diagram is start at the initial point, there is a decision-making tool and at the
last, there is an ending node. It is similar to the flow chart.

SYMBOL NAME DESCRIPTION

The filled in circle is the starting point of
the diagram. An initial node isn’t
Start node required although it does make it
Significantly easier to read the diagram.

The filled circle with a border is the

ending point. An activity diagram can
Final node have zero or more activity final nodes.

The rounded rectangles represent

Activities that occur. An activity may be
Activity physical, such as Inspect Forms, or
electronic, such as Display Create

2.3.1.3 Notation of Sequence Diagram

The sequence diagram is used for defining the process, which are happing, it shows the
each and every data flow through the object, and it is showing by the Synchronous message.

SYMBOL NAME DESCRIPTION

It includes the name or type of the object,

at least one of them should be present. Note
Object that the object doesn't have to be a direct
instance of Type, a type of which it is an
indirect instance is possible too. So 'Type'
can be an abstract type as well.

A synchronous message is used when the

sender waits until the receiver has finished
Synchronous processing the message, only then does the
message caller continue (i.e. a blocking call). Most
method calls in object-oriented
programming languages are synchronous.
A closed and filled arrowhead signifies that
the message is sent synchronously.

Data Flow The arrow should be labeled with the name

of the data moving between the activities.

Any type of comment is included only for

Note / Comment understanding the purpose for the user, it
doesn’t have any Logical reason.

Backend process It represents only the backend Process.

2.3.3.4 Notation of E-R Diagram

An entity-relationship diagram is a data modeling technique that creates a graphical

Representation of the entities, and the relationships between entities, within an information
System.

SYMBOL NAME DESCRIPTION

An entity is a person, thing or anything in a real life. Employee,
Entity pen, bed, door Anything can object.

Attribute An Attribute is a value of any entity. Like “Name” is an

attribute of entity” student”.

An Attribute is a value of any entity. Like “Name” is an

Diamond attribute of entity” student”.

Weak When an entity depends on other entity Then it is called “weak

Entity Entity”.

Multi An attribute has more than one value than. It is included in

Value “Multi-Value Attribute”, i.e. an entity person has more than
Attribute one “Contact no”, and it is included in the Multi-value attribute.

Weak When an attribute depends on another attribute, then it’s called

Attribute “Weak Attribute” attribute like, age is an attribute which can
we identify with another attribute “Date Of Birth”

Lines are used to connecting attributes with Entities and

Lines entities with relationships.

Key An attribute that uniquely identifies a particular entity.

CHAPTER 4: SUMMARY OF THE RESULTS

4.1 Advantages of Your Work/Results/Methodologies

The benefit that hey provide is that they are executed on the server side and perform a set
of actions, before returning the results to the client side.
This allows a set of actions to be executed with minimum time and also reduce the network
traffic. Hence stored procedure improves performance to execute SQL statements.

4.2 Usefulness with respect to existing solutions

Until now there were a number of similar apps available on the Android platform for mobile
devices. Our system share they own private vehicle. Other related apps provide vehicle the
under company. Our system provides more information regarding vehicle and user like
name, phone number, image, vehicle number, vehicle model, ac or non-ac vehicle, smoking
or non-smoking vehicle etc. Our system provides a very important feature of database
reuse.
We have designed our database in such a way that we could use the same database to
provide data to similar applications on any other type of devices on any other platforms.
This can be one with the use of services.
Thus similar applications that require such data need only design the user interfaces and
then they can provide methods and services to access the data from our database. This saves
them the time and effort needed to design a new database.

4.3 Scope of future work

Currently, we have designed an Android application that would work on all android device,
Mobile, and tablets. In future, we can design the same application for Windows Phone.
In that case, we will save time and effort by using the same database that we use for the
application that runs on the Desktop.
We will add tracking of vehicle from passenger side. Passenger can track the vehicle owner’s
vehicle. Passenger can see the vehicle is now on which place.
Additionally, like we stated earlier, we can design similar applications for the Windows phone,
IOS, Firefox OS, and Linux OS and use the same database for all of them.

4.4 Unique Features of Our Innovation/Project

Our project implements a unique and user-friendly application user interface that meets the
requirements and needs of the users. The features of this application include push
notification, providing vehicle information, providing trip information, registration with
OTP, the vehicle is Ac or non-Ac and smoking or non-smoking etc. passenger can search
for the journey and a get list of the journey using this application. The passenger can select
journey which would like then the passenger sends a request to the vehicle owner. The
vehicle owner can request accept or reject. Then passenger gets notification from the
vehicle owner.

4.5 Conclusion

Share a ride can save you hundreds and even thousands of dollars a year as it reduces the
costs involved in repetitive or long-distance driving. It reduces the stress of your commute
and allows you to read, relax, or even work while commuting. Share a ride enables some
families to cut back to one vehicle or to do without a vehicle at all. If you don’t have a
vehicle or don’t drive, share a ride allows you to consider jobs throughout the area. Share
a ride can provide you with new friendships and company for your commute. Share a ride
reduces air pollution and traffic congestion, something that benefits all of us! Share a ride
helps to combat rising traffic congestion, by filling the extra seats in your vehicle, there are
fewer vehicle owner, and therefore fewer vehicles crowding the roads.
