Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Computer Science - Applied, , language: English, abstract: This thesis proposes a platform to help improve elder’s mobility through carpooling, a way for car drivers to share their private vehicle with more elders in order to splitting and reducing costs. Carpooling may be one of the best solutions when there is no other mean of transportation to a specific location but naturally it is not the only one. Mobile applications take more and more part of everyone’s lives, different services for carpooling with different features begin to compete with existing transportation solutions. Some people start to prefer using new carpooling services over the traditional services represented by taxi services. GoRide aims to promote carpooling by targeting elders making it easier for them to adhere and use this system. In general, people have a hard time conciliating their schedules because of the way they move from one location to another. And elders suffer from this the most especially here in Algeria since transportation between cities is not that great, As students, we think there should exist more suitable transportation solutions to places where transportation networks are short and cheap and helpful for elders. By targeting elders people will more likely join the service since its users are primarily other people form the same environment. To put the carpooling system in place, we have designed and developed an Android mobile application with backend servers for users to access the carpooling service through their smartphones, additionally the application involves some features that are critical to the service. By using Android Development Tools and Libraries and efficient backend solutions we have managed to make the application simple but powerful as well, which makes this application very useful for the young and the old to use. Our app GoRide will be a unique carpooling application that would take benefits of the advantages of carpooling and try to improve and eliminate the disadvantages, all while focusing on making it a good carpooling experience for elders. The realization of our project will go through the conceptual phase and then development phase. Since making a good application requires good planning first.
