Abstract：In car rental peak hours,difficulty to reasonably assign the vehicles to users is a main problem for the operators of time-share car rental.Focused on the reservation assignment problem under time-share car rental mode,a reservation assignment optimization model is pro-posed based on the analysis of the main affecting factors.The model aims at maximizing the prof-its of the time-share car rental operator.A genetic algorithm (GA)is designed to solve the model. The model and GA are applied to the simulation example based on the assumption of simulation scene.The results show that the GA is suitable for solving the proposed model.The maximum profits of the operator and the corresponding optimal scheme of reservation assignment can be ob-tained through solving the model.Through comparison analysis,it can be found that the profits of the operator under the model are superior to the conventional reservation assignment method. The feasibility and practicality of the model and GA are verified.
