MULTI-AGENT INTELLIGENT SYSTEM FOR CONTROL OF PARKING SPACES IN CITY INFRASTRUCTURE

With the growing number of cars and limited space, many cities are realizing the importance of implementingintelligent parking systems to improve urban mobility and convenience for drivers. The level ofimplementation of intelligent parking based on various technological solutions is growing, but to achievemaximum efficiency, it is necessary to continue to develop technologies, integrate them with other systemsand take into account the needs of users. The purpose of the study is to develop a multi-agent intelligentsystem for monitoring and managing parking space reservations in the city parking network. The architectureof a multi-agent intelligent parking management system has been developed, which provides automaticaccess control to parking spaces taking into account the wishes of parking lot owners, driver orders, the trafficsituation in the city and safety requirements. The main element of the developed system is parking, whichis represented by a set of parking spaces equipped with automated parking space management systems (parkingattendants), a communication system and data collection tools (surveillance camera and weather stations).Parking spaces and parking attendants are managed by an intelligent control system based on multiagentneurocognitive architectures. A prototype of a hardware and software complex of a multi-agent intelligentparking space management system has been developed in the form of a client-server architecture.The server is responsible for collecting, processing, storing data and managing automated parking attendants.Two types of clients are connected to the server - a mobile application of the administrator and thedriver. The administrator has the ability to manage parking (set fixed prices or use server recommendations,book parking spaces for employees) and view statistics (current load, parking statistics, data on acceptedpayments, parking work forecast, recommendations). The driver has the ability to view the status of parkingin the area of interest (number of free spaces, waiting time for a free space, cost, recommendations for themost convenient parking) and book a parking space with the ability to pay online
