  1. ParkNet: WiMaxMarco Gruteser, WINLAB Rutgers UnivIvan Seskar (WINLAB)Max Ott (NICTA)Thanasis Korakis (NYU Poly) November 3, 2010 http://www.winlab.rutgers.edu/ http://www.geni.net

  2. Motivation: Cruising for Parking • US: $78 billion cost of congestion (time & gasoline) • Cruising for Parking: • Brooklyn: 45% • Soho: 28% • LA – Westwood village (small business district): • 730 tons CO2 • 47,000 gal gasoline • 950,000 VMT • Source: D. Shoup

  3. What if … Real-time Parking Availability Statistics? • Drivers: Guide drivers to regions with available parking • Cities: • Setting prices • maximum stays • where to install parking meters • More informed travel decisions: public transit vs carpool vs car

  4. Idea: Drive-By Sensing of Parking Spots Parking Availability Estimation Rangefinder + GPS Valid Parking Spot Map Wireless Service

  5. Challenges • Mining sensing data for parking spots • Identifying legal spots • Accurate positioning Requires extensive real-world data collection

  6. Today’s Demonstration 6 ParkNet Cars Wimax @ Brooklyn Poly

  9. ParkNet with GENI • GENI has proven valuable by • Allowing cost effective experimentation with delay-tolerant data collection protocols on Wimax/4G cellular networks • Battle-hardened hardware and relevant domain knowledge  • Providing tools for executing and orchestrating experiments across a set of mobile nodes • Tools to deploy and keep alive long running experiments (almost hands-off) • Monitoring & instrumentation plane to obtain and manage large amounts of measurements (data)    • Results to date • Science: MobiSys best paper award • Outreach: MIT Tech Review, CBC Online, etc • We look forward to experimenting at more WiMAX sites and with more vehicles as GENI grows
