Modeling Waymo's Shared Autonomous Vehicle Service in Phoenix Using e3value

The research objective of this work is to analyze what is behind the self-driving offer implemented in Phoenix (Arizona), by Waymo, a service called Waymo One, and model it in e3value. Through a comprehensive literature review and the application of e3value modeling, this study focuses on the fundamental principles and technological advancements of self-driving vehicles and shared mobility services. Waymo's operations and ecosystem are systematically modeled, providing a detailed representation of the service. Results demonstrate the potential improvements in road safety, traffic reduction, and emissions mitigation achieved through shared autonomous mobility. The e3value model offers a holistic perspective on the interactions and value exchanges among stakeholders, including passengers, vehicle operators, infrastructure providers, and regulatory bodies, elucidating their roles within the shared autonomous mobility ecosystem. The idea is to support the development of other shared autonomous vehicles trials around the world. Main goal is to improve the shared autonomous mobility offer, which means better safety on the road, reduced traffic, and lower emissions in the metropolitan areas of cities. Therefore, modeling Waymo One can be a basis for the extension of shared autonomous vehicles businesses to other companies in different geographies.
