Due to the concentration of population and economic activities in metropolitan areas, urban transportation system suffers many challenges, e.g. traffic congestion and parking space storage, which affect each individuals travel experience. Previous studies looked into the transportation condition sensing using various static or mobile sensors and the travel support services based on the sensing ...

Real-time parking occupancy information is critical for a parking management system to facilitate drivers to park more efficiently. Recent advances in connected and automated vehicle technologies enable sensor-equipped cars (probe cars) to detect and broadcast available parking spaces when driving through parking lots. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of market penetration of probe cars on...

The performance analysis of the car parking process in a parking lot with various levels of assistance is considered in the paper. The input of the model is the description of the parking lot and a Markovian description for the driver behavior, the set of computable performance measures contains the average time necessary for the user to reach the desired destination, the amount of cars moving ...

We study the employees' demand for hospital parking. We estimate the effect of the employees' parking price on demand using a difference-in-differences methodology. The deadweight loss generated by non-optimal pricing of parking is at least 9% of the hospitals' parking resource costs.

Let x = (x1, x2, . . . , xn) ∈ Nn . Define a x-parking function to be a sequence (a1, a2, . . . , an) of positive integers whose non-decreasing rearrangement b1 ≤ b2 ≤ · · · ≤ bn satisfies bi ≤ x1+ · · ·+xi. Let Pn(x) denote the number of x-parking functions. We discuss the enumerations of such generalized parking functions. In particular, We give the explicit formulas and present two proofs, o...

This work presents a novel autonomous parking concept for a four wheel-steerable robotic electric vehicle called ROboMObil (ROMO). Its extraordinary maneuverability, including rotations and lateral driving, and its capability of autonomous driving is demonstrated in the application of parallel parking. The whole process is described starting with the perception to identify a suitable parking sp...

Parking management is used to balance the supply and demand for parking. Furthermore, it limit traffic enable efficient functioning of network. However, street parking regulations are uneasy enforce. In almost all cities in Serbia, on does not work desired way. Many drivers park prohibited places. Those who regular places where one restrictive regimes applies, often do so without paying and/or ...

In the classical parking problem, unit intervals (“car lengths”) are placed uniformly at random without overlapping. The process terminates saturation, i.e. until no more can be stowed. this paper, we present a generalization of problem in which with an exponential distribution rate parameter $$\lambda $$ . We show that mathematical expectation number saturation satisfies certain integral equat...

This paper describes a simulation system proposed in order to study and to implement intelligent autonomous vehicle control. The developed system can automatically drive a vehicle, implementing a robust control system capable of simulating in a realistic way autonomous parking in a parallel parking space. The system controls the vehicles based on the reading of sonar sensors and automatically g...
