Challenged by urbanization and increasing travel needs, existing transportation systems call for new mobility paradigms. In this article, we present the emerging concept of Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand, whereby centrally orchestrated fleets of autonomous vehicles provide mobility service to customers. We provide a comprehensive review of methods and tools to model and solve problems related to Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand systems. Specifically, we first identify problem settings for their analysis and control, both from the operational and the planning perspective. We then review modeling aspects, including transportation networks, transportation demand, congestion, operational constraints, and interactions with existing infrastructure. Thereafter, we provide a systematic analysis of existing solution methods and performance metrics, highlighting trends and trade-offs. Finally, we present various directions for further research.
