Desenvolvimento de um protótipo ciber-físico baseado em agentes para um smart parking

Abstract

Systems for managing and allocating parking spaces aim to reduce urban traffic and improve the occupancy of parking spaces. Some applications used, in isolated forms, Multi-Agent Systems (MAS), Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) and Cloud Computing (CC). Integrating these technologies is critical to build smart parking applications. This article presents an implementation of an architecture that integrates MAS technologies for the allocation of vacancies, CPSs for detecting cars and a cloud based database for storing information. The integration took place through a cloud API communicating a management system to the physical device and the database which was proved to be efficient to communicate the devices.
