Although much effort has been devoted by both academic and industrial communities to improve the efficiency of urban passenger and package flows, current urban transport systems still fail to balance the speed and cost. To fill the gap, in this paper, we propose a novel form of transport system called crowdsourcing integrated transportation (CIT). It leverages the underused transport capacity which is generated while delivering passengers to hitchhike packages so that more transportation needs can be met with fewer vehicles and drivers (i.e., sending more with less). We identify the unique features of the new delivery system when comparing to the traditional transport systems and discuss the key research challenges and potential solutions. We further implement the passenger-occupied taxis as the package carriers and evaluate the effectiveness. With several future research directions discussed in CIT, we expect that more research interests will be stimulated in this novel transport paradigm.

以少送多：众包综合运输作为全市包邮新形式

尽管学术界和工业界都付出了很多努力来提高城市客运和包裹流的效率，但当前的城市交通系统仍然无法平衡速度和成本。为了填补这一空白，在本文中，我们提出了一种称为众包综合交通 (CIT) 的新型交通系统形式。它利用在将乘客运送到搭便车包裹时产生的未充分利用的运输能力，以便可以用更少的车辆和司机满足更多的运输需求（即，以更少的钱发送更多的东西）。在与传统运输系统进行比较时，我们确定了新交付系统的独特之处，并讨论了关键的研究挑战和潜在的解决方案。我们进一步将载客出租车作为包裹承运人，并评估其有效性。
