SmartParking: A Secure and Intelligent Parking System Using NOTICE

Parking is costly and limited in almost every major city in the world. Innovative parking systems for meeting near-term parking demand are needed. In this paper, we propose a novel, secure and intelligent parking system based on the concept and framework of NOTICE [WO07], a secure and privacy-aware architecture for the notification of traffic incidents. The proposed system, called SmartParking, is a service-oriented intelligent parking system through which drivers can view and reserve a parking spot on the fly. The parking process can then be a straightforward and non-stop process. More importantly, SmartParking is a secure and privacy-aware parking system. The proposed infrastructure prevents most security/privacy attacks. We address hardware/software architecture and implementations. The evaluation of this proposed system proves its efficiency.
