Abstract: – In recent times the concept of smart cities has gained great popularity. Thanks to the evolution of Internet of things the idea of smart city now seems to be achievable. Consistent efforts are being made in the field of IOT in order to maximize the productivity and reliability of urban infrastructure. Problems such as, traffic congestion, limited car parking facilities and road safety are being addressed by IOT. In this paper, we present an IOT based cloud integrated smart parking system. The proposed Smart Parking system consists of an on-site deployment of an IOT module that is used to monitor and signalize the state of availability of each single parking space. A mobile application is also provided that allows an end user to check the availability of parking space and book a parking slot accordingly. The paper also describes a high-level view of the system architecture. Towards the end, the paper discusses the working of the system in form of a use case that proves the correctness of the proposed.
Keywords: – Cloud Computing, Cloud of Things, Internet of Things, Smart City, Smart Parking.

The concept of Internet of Things (IOT) started with things with identity communication devices. The devices could be tracked, controlled or monitored using remote computers connected through Internet. IOT extends the use of Internet providing the communication, and thus inter-network of the devices and physical objects, or ‘Things’. The two prominent words in IOT are “internet” and “things”.
