• 論文抄録 / 内容記述: Smart Cities are supposed to be the next generation of not only city infrastructure but also citizenship. Improving citizens' quality of life - referred to as social utility in this paper - should be one of the main targets of a smart city. Electric Vehicles (EVs) offer several new venues in this area. While today citizens are basically on their own when they buy a car while residing in a city, EVs in a smart city is a different topic entirely. Citizens shrink from purchasing EVs today mainly because of high cost and low availability of battery charging. With alternative battery ownership model and Vehicle-To-Home (V2H) systems, citizens can get much more from owning an EV in terms of social utility. This paper shows that high social utility depends on the infrastructure provided by the city. While the battery replacement model presented in this paper greatly increases charging availability, it still heavily depends on battery replacement stations. This paper presents a realistic model for a city-wide EV service infrastructure. The model is based on the real road map of Tokyo. The model evaluates quality of life of citizens, represented by two social utility metrics. Recommendations to battery replacement service providers are made based on simulation results.; ------------------------------; This is a preprint of an article intended for publication Journal of; Information Processing(JIP).
