Parking Managtment System in Central Business Districts

由于违规停放的街道车辆的存在直接导致了停车问题，有效和可持续的停车策略应该能够改变这些街道停车者的态度和行为。因此，停车行为分析在停车场管理系统中起着重要的作用。本文建立了停车管理系统的仿真模型，该模型由停车位置选择子模型、停车绩效子模型和停车信息子模型组成。通过该模型，我们可以对停车收费控制、停车法规的执行、停车位的提供和停车引导系统的引入等停车管理系统的主要因素的效果进行评价。即利用该模型，我们可以计算出每个停车场的等待时间和占用情况、用户的总效用、停车场所有者的利润等。在此模型的基础上，本研究提出了一个理想的停车管理系统，该系统可以有效地管理包括路边停车在内的所有停车车辆。此外，本研究还探讨了有效的停车管理政策，并对现有停车管理系统的有效性进行了实证研究。

As parking problems are directly caused by the existence of illegally parked on-street vehicles, effective and sustainable parking strategies should have a way to change the attitude and behavior of such on-street parkers. Therefore, an analysis of parking behavior plays an important role in a parking management system. This study has developed a simulation model to evaluate a parking management system, which consists of a parking location choice sub-model, a parking performance sub-model, and parking information sub-model. This model enables us to evaluate the effect of control of parking fee, enforcement of parking regulation, provision of parking space and introduction of parking guidance system, which are the major factors of a parking management system. That is, using the model, we can calculate the waiting time and occupancy at each parking lot, users' total utility, and profits to owners of parking lots and so on. Based on the model, tihs study has proposed a desirable parking management system which is effective to manage all parking vehicles including on-street parking. Moreover this study has discussed the effective parking management policy, investigating the validity of a present parking management system which is obtained empirically.
