The Optimal Queuing Strategy for Airport Taxis

In recent years, with the increase in the frequency of residents’ trips, the problem of taking taxis in airports, train stations, and other transportation hubs has received wide attention, especially when we need to evacuate people in major emergencies such as epidemics, the traffic effic...
