Abstract: The interaction between a transport company and its passengers is modeled as a cooperative game in which the company, subject to an economic constraint, uses the vehicle dispatch strategy under which a time-related cast function for passengers is minimized. A rudimentary transport system is studied in detail, and the joint optimal strategy for passengers and the transport company is obtained.
