4) Parking Availability Information and Reservation GUI:
This is the client application deployed onto the driver0 s hand
held device. This client GUI enables the driver to obtain infor-
mation on availability of various parking facilities throughout
the city as well as to reserve a parking lot within the suitable
parking facility area over the Internet. If reservation is suc-
cessful, driver is asked for making payment based on duration
of reservation. After the payment has been made, the image
of the parking facility area displaying reserved parking slot is
delivered to the client application.
