Nomenclature.

NotationInterpretation

Number of time panes opened in the parking lot every day
Distance between parking lot 1 and parking lot 2
Expected arrival time (pane) of traveler
Parking duration (panes) of traveler
Parking reservation time of traveler
Arrival number at parking lot 1 between the arrival time interval of traveler and
Occupied spaces number in parking lot 1 when traveler arrives
Reserved panes number in parking lot 1 when traveler reserves
Modes, including “arrival priority,” “reservation priority,” and “service order optimization” and modes, including “arrival priority”-, “reservation priority”-, and “service order optimization”-
The total number of parking spaces in the parking lot 1 ( indicates the number of parking spaces)
In mode , the probability of a traveler parking at the position of parking lot 1
In mode , the probability that any pane of parking lot 1 is occupied after the traveler completes the parking reservation
0-1 variable, in mode , whether the traveler successfully finds parking space in the parking lot 1
0-1 variable, in mode , whether the traveler gets the parking position at pane in the parking lot 1
The value of time
Unit search time without information guidance
, the search time reduction factor under information guidance
Car velocity
Walking velocity
In mode , the travel cost of traveler
In mode , the search cost of traveler
The total system cost of the mode
