The basic idea is to employ fog nodes, which are placed at parking lots and intersections, to process parking lot utilization and traffic information, and then communicate this information


to other vehicles through the use of RSUs. The researchers — who are based at institutes in China, Canada, Brazil and Portugal — also suggest that a remote cloud data centre could be


employed to provide a wider overview of the parking area, and to enable a level of global optimization in the decision-making process. The ability to allocate parking spaces more effectively


may lead to reduced driving time, which should lead to more efficient fuel use and reduced vehicular emissions.
