Optimizing car parking allocation on university campuses.
Streszczenie
The paper addresses the challenges of parking allocation in university environments, focusing on reserved and unreserved parking policies. It introduces a model to minimize walking distances for users, considering various constraints. The study utilizes parking data from the University of KwaZulu-Natal to demonstrate the application of the model.
