It means that these independent
sub-systems can be substituted. The gate
hardware can be the product of any possible
company. There are also many RFID
hardware providers. Moreover, to suitably
manage and monitor the parking place, the
manager may need the attendance
information of different users according to
each business application. Hence, different
type hardware or products need the general
interface to communicate with the main
management system. To provide the
interactive ability of different systems or
hardware, Modular Gate-PC Controller and
Embedded Gate Hardwareis proposed to be
the intermediary software to hardware
interface (gate to PC interface). In addition,
RFID API and RFID parser are used to be
the middleware between any possible RFID
Systemand the Modular Parking
Management Platform.Furthermore, to
communicate with the independent business
application, the software API is included in
the Modular Parking Management Platform.
In the following section, each module in the
proposed system, Modular RFID Parking
Management System,is introduced
