Abstract :
One of the challenging problems for many vehicle owners in big metropolitan cities is where to park their vehicles. If the parking slot availability is known in advance one can save precious time and fuel wastage. In this paper we would like to propose an RFID based parking slot allocation system wherein an intended user is informed about the parking slot availability at a particular parking location via Short Messaging Service. The slot availability details are collected using an RFID system and are updated periodically into a Web server via Internet for a registered user. If needed, the user can reserve his parking slot via SMS.
