It is based around an open-source software pack that does all the routing, & time scheduling. The algorithms would be similar to network traffic routing, and the software would need to track the location of the vehicles, so the routing can be changed dynamically. There would also be need of a module to calculate charges (probably for the point-to-point distance, even though the route may vary), and to handle the operator input. The networking to the buses would be with wireless nodes, This software development is why I would like to speak to people about the idea on Friday! (Especially as we may be able to generate some funding to help the development) regards Doug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
