摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prepare an optimum vehicle allocation plan capable of preventing total time required for patrol from being extremely extended even when necessity for increasing the patrol frequency by a vehicle is generated. PSOLUTION: The personal information of cared persons for requiring pick-up service, provider information concerned with service provider for providing the pick-up service and reservation information indicating the reserved state of the pick-up service are respectively stored in databases 3a, 3b, 3c. A vehicle allocation plan preparation part 12 in an information processing server 2 prepares a vehicle allocation plan by adopting the maximum number of passengers on a pick-up vehicle and the number of equipments as restriction conditions on the assumption that the patrol frequency by each pick-up vehicle to be used for the pick-up service is once on the basis of the information stored in respective databases 3a, 3b, 3c. When all cared persons can not be completely transferred by the prepared vehicle allocation plan and some cared persons who can not be transferred are left, a vehicle allocation plan is prepared again by increasing the patrol frequency by each pick-up vehicle and adding the total time required for patrol of each pick-up vehicle to the restriction conditions.
