Package delivery via ridesharing provides appealing benefits of lower delivery cost and efficient vehicle usage. Most existing ridesharing systems operate the matching of ridesharing in a centralized manner, which may result in the single point of failure once the controller breaks down or is under attack. To tackle such problems, our goal in this paper is to develop a blockchain-based package delivery ridesharing system, where decentralization is adopted to remove intermediaries and direct transactions between the providers and the requestors are allowed. To complete the matching process under decentralized structure, an Event-Triggered Distributed Deep Reinforcement Learning (ETDDRL) algorithm is proposed to generate/update the real-time ridesharing orders for the new coming ridesharing requests from a local view. Simulation results reveal the vast potential of the ETDDRL matching algorithm under the blockchain framework for the promotion of the ridesharing profits. Finally, we develop an application for Android-based terminals to verify the ETDDRL matching algorithm. |
