Resource Allocation Using Weighted Metrics

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by circuitry, one or more requests for performing one or more tasks;
• identifying, by the circuitry, one or more resources that are available for allocation corresponding to the one or more requests;
• generating, by the circuitry, a first matrix including a plurality of elements, wherein each element corresponds to each request-resource pair, and wherein each element is determined based on a plurality of parameter values corresponding to a plurality of parameters associated with each booking request-resource pair and a weight associated with each parameter;
• processing, by the circuitry, the first matrix by means of one or more algorithms including at least a Hungarian algorithm to generate a second matrix;
• and
• allocating, by the circuitry, based on the second matrix, a resource from the one or more available resources to a request from the one or more requests for performing a task.

A system, comprising:

• a transportation server comprising circuitry configured to:
• receive one or more booking requests for one or more rides from one or more passenger devices of one or more passengers, respectively;
• identify one or more vehicles that are available for allocation corresponding to the one or more booking requests;
• generate a first matrix including a plurality of elements, wherein each element corresponds to each booking request-vehicle pair, and wherein each element is determined based on a plurality of parameter values corresponding to a plurality of parameters associated with each booking request-vehicle pair and a weight associated with each parameter;
• process the first matrix by means of one or more algorithms including at least a Hungarian algorithm to generate a second matrix;
• and
• allocate, based on the second matrix, a vehicle from the one or more available vehicles to a passenger from the one or more passengers for a ride.
