RADIO TAXI (ONLINE TAXI SERVICE)

Radio Taxi is a great concept for comfortable travel and particularly for traveling long distances across the city as driving or taking the ordinary taxi is not a very good option.
Current State
The not very modern taxi company has asked you to develop a computer-based booking and planning system. At present, there is an operator receiving phone calls from customers.  The customer can book a taxi for a future occasion. The operator registers such bookings in a schedule. The customer can also ask for a transport at soon as possible. The operator then makes a request by phone to a planner, who has radio communication with the taxi cars. The planner gives an estimated time it would take to reach the customer. If booking is acknowledged by the customers: ear fact customers Wright reserves many invoices and emers which pay directly to the taxi driver.
Future System
The  company has sketched on the system they would  like  to have,  The  taxi cars should be equipped with a  GPS  unit  which gives  the position of the car at each moment. They should also contain a system which communicates with the central. At the central there would be a computer system which does the planning. This means the planner can be sacked and money can be saved.  The operator takes a call from a customer, enters the date into the system and then reads off the produced information on the screen. Communication with the taxi cars should go via the distributed computer system and should involve the taxi drivers as little as possible. With this automation if should be possible for the company to grow and the system must allow several operators.  It should  also  be  prepared  for a future  development  of  a  web interface,  where  the  customer  can book  a  taxi  without  the interaction of an operator.
