Recommended architecture for car parking management system based on cyber-physical system

Abstract

A joint combination of interacting network of physical components and computational algorithms form cyber-physical system (CPS). Cyber-physical systems are intended to improve the quality of life by forming a sound basis of emerging smart services. There is a need to apply CPS in different fields to acquire the prominent result and therefore, we have applied CPS in the car parking management system. Looking for parking space waste a lot of time as a user has to search for parking space, since lack of car parking information. It results in traffic congestion, environmental pollution making the environment more badly. A lot of approaches have been developed to solve this problem but they are insufficient either they are not sufficient to cope with the user needs and they are not able to communicate properly with the external interfaces or they are much costly. The proposed solution based on CPS, solve the problem of car parking system. The proposed solution is effective and efficient as the user will enter location details using the smartphone app and send it to the server. The server will search for the available parking slots, getting information from sensors and send it back to the user with the route directions. The user will follow that particular route and park vehicle at the area designated by the server. The proposed solution is a novel approach to solve the car parking problem using cyber-physical system.
