Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article presents the results of a systematic literature review on modern trends in the implementation of car-sharing and conducts a comparative analysis of Kazakhstani carsharing solutions to some of the world’s most popular alternatives. The findings reveal some socio-economic and cultural barriers for adopting and promoting carsharing services by studying the results of recent literature. It also considers business models and features of various car-sharing services and suggests a P2P(peer-to-peer) model as the main model of the proposed carsharing system, a system architecture of which is presented as well. The main contribution of this article to the research topic is analyzing existing carsharing solutions both in Kazakhstan and abroad, identifying the gaps in the development of carsharing in the country, suggesting the preferred business model, system architecture and finding directions for future research.
