EFEKTIVITAS PEMUNGUTAN PAJAK PARKIR DI KOTA SAMARINDA: TINJAUAN DARI PERSPEKTIF HUKUM DAN KEBIJAKAN

Parking tax is a significant source of Local Revenue (PAD) in Samarinda City, but its implementation faces various challenges. The regulations governing parking tax aim to provide a clear legal framework, yet taxpayer compliance remains low. Weak supervision, limited technology, and low public awareness are the main factors hindering tax collection effectiveness. The use of digital technology in the parking system can enhance taxpayer compliance and reduce revenue leakage. Improving human resource capacity and conducting educational campaigns to raise public awareness are also important. Implementing policies that provide incentives for compliance and strict sanctions for violations is expected to optimize parking tax revenue and improve public services and city infrastructure.

Constraint Optimization Model for Dynamic Parking Space Allocation.

Managing car parking systems is a complex process because multiple constraints must be considered; these include organizational and operational constraints. In this paper, a constraint optimization model for dynamic parking space allocation is introduced. An ad hoc algorithm is proposed, presented, and explained to achieve the goal of our proposed model. This paper makes research contributions by providing an intelligent prioritization mechanism, considering user schedule shifts and parking constraints, and assigning suitable parking slots based on a dynamic distribution. The proposed model is implemented to demonstrate the applicability of our approach. A benchmark is constructed based on well-defined metrics to validate our proposed model and the results achieved.

Economic Analysis of On-Street Parking with Urban Delivery

The surge in online shopping has dramatically increased the demand for short-term curb access for package pickups and deliveries, leading to heightened competition for limited curb space. This paper addresses the problem of how the unique parking demand of deliverers, particularly their parking duration for delivery attempts linked to parking space availability, affects the dynamics of urban curb parking systems. We develop continuum models of a curb parking system and perform analytical analyses to understand the dynamics and steady-state properties of the system under the influence of increased urban deliveries. We conduct comparative statics to examine how various curb management measures, such as pricing, parking duration caps, and dedicated delivery bays, influence the equilibrium conditions, followed by comparisons of the theoretical capacity of these measures. We further demonstrate the working mechanism of delivery bays and their role in forestalling specific failures within a hybrid system with both general parkers and deliverers. Finally, we investigate curb management strategies in nonstationary operational contexts and prescribe the optimal strategies therein. Our findings offer valuable insights into the unique properties that deliverers introduce to curb parking dynamics, highlighting the need for a strategic reevaluation of current management practices. We find that pricing strategies for metered parking to general parkers prove to be more efficient and flexible compared with other interventions. Notably, our analysis suggests that when curb parking pricing is optimally calibrated, the necessity for dedicated delivery bays diminishes. Furthermore, we reveal that optimal curb management strategies could diverge in response to surges in demand, depending on whether the increase sources from general parkers or deliverers. To be effective, the sizing of delivery bays must align with the underlying causes of parking scarcity.

Spread of parking difficulty in urban environments: A parking network perspective

AbstractSpread of parking difficulty can be regarded as a special cascading failure process of urban parking systems. A comprehensive understanding of this process can be greatly helpful to build a more robust parking system. Parking network, a specified complex network, is proposed to model, simulate, and analyse the failure process of urban parking systems in this paper. This model is applied to the analysis of parking systems in an abstract city grid and the downtown area of Luohu, Shenzhen. The results demonstrate that the parking network can capture subtle variations among various parking cruising behaviours or strategies from a network perspective. To enhance the utility of the parking network, an auxiliary indicator named “Parking Difficulty Index” is introduced to help assess the failure degree of urban parking system, estimate the optimal timing for parking guidance intervention, and evaluate the effectiveness of various guidance strategies in mitigating parking difficulties.

Deep learning and saliency-based parking IoT classification under different weather conditions

The world’s population is growing at an exponential rate, which has created a slew of new issues in our daily lives. Among these challenges is the difficulty of finding available parking spaces. To overcome this obstacle, an effective system for detecting vacant parking spaces is crucial, particularly in densely populated areas. Even though there are numerous parking detecting systems on the market today, they all have their own set of restrictions. There are primarily two types of parking systems available. The first is a hardware-based system that uses hardware to detect whether a space is vacant or occupied, and the second is a smart parking system that uses cameras to classify parking status. Vision-based parking systems are becoming increasingly popular due to benefits such as flexibility and cost efficiency. However, due to challenging weather conditions and various occlusions caused by objects, such systems are challenging to develop. The limitations of a vision-based parking system must be addressed for it to become more accurate. To date, many researchers have attempted to incorporate deep learning-based parking systems with various algorithms but none of them has focused on reducing the complexity of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) training through unsupervised pre-processing steps. In this study, an attempt is made to reduce the complexity of CNN by integrating salient features as a pre-processing step for normalizing weather conditions. It has been observed that salient features-based pre-processing makes the system more robust in terms of accuracy and time efficiency.

Sunscreen pollution is abated during the COVID-19 “Anthropause” of 2020 in two U.S. National Parks: Cape Lookout National Seashore and Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park

From March to June 2020, governments across the world imposed lockdowns in an attempt to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 during the early phase of the pandemic. This period of time in which human activity slowed worldwide has been coined the “Anthropause”. The goal of this study was to determine if sunscreen pollution abated during the Anthropause and to identify the severity of the pollution when tourism/recreation recovered at two coastal units of the U.S. National Park System: Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park in Hawaiʻi, U.S.A. and Cape Lookout National Seashore in North Carolina, U.S.A. Active ingredients of sunscreen products were measured in water and sand samples at both locations, including oxybenzone, octinoxate, octocrylene, octisalate, homosalate, and relevant breakdown products of some of these ingredients. A risk assessment was conducted on Anthropause and post-Anthropause contaminant levels for both locations to determine if there was a threat reduction during the Anthropause, and whether tourism recovery in the post-Anthropause period served as a threat to coastal wildlife. Both national park units exhibited an almost absolute reduction in the levels of sunscreen contamination during the Anthropause period, a striking commonality considering the geographic expanse separating the parks. Once travel restrictions were lifted, a large influx of tourists ensued at both locations, resulting in a relatively sudden and dangerous increase in the levels of sunscreen chemical pollution. This study supports the argument that unmanaged tourism is a source of coastal sunscreen pollution that poses a threat to the localized continuity of species populations and biodiversity, especially to coral reefs and fisheries.

Limitations of existing park quality instruments and suggestions for future research

Public parks are critical urban infrastructures offering health, environmental, social, and cultural benefits to people. However, the idea of park quality has lacked a clear operational definition and normative standard for measurement. We provide critical insights into existing park quality instruments and advocate for an alternative approach. First, due to the significant diversity in parks, inherent ambiguity and subjectivity in the idea of quality, and previous instruments’ inconsistent operationalizations of park quality, we recommend that future research shift its focus from creating instruments for universal application and standardized measurement to developing an inventory or list of park quality indicators that researchers and practitioners can selectively choose for their unique park contexts. Second, through our multidisciplinary examination, we identify five limitations in existing park quality instruments: (1) lack of attention to the histories of marginalized communities, (2) overemphasis on physical activities and public health, (3) lack of attention to ecological function and biodiversity, (4) lack of subjective measurements, and (5) insufficient consideration of multiple parks or a park system. Overall, a more flexible and site-specific approach to park quality measurement and the adoption of new indicators of park quality are expected to accomplish a more comprehensive and fairer assessment of park quality, contributing to park equity research and practice.

IR Sensor based Smart Parking System

Nowadays congestion of traffic level increased with the increase in population. As the population increases, the utilization of vehicles also increases. It's becoming a difficult task to find a slot to park the vehicle. To overcome this problem, a smart parking system is introduced. Previously, there were some approaches to this system where Bluetooth and GPS tracker were used to find the empty slots, and different sensors were used for indoor and outdoor parking. In some approaches there was no security for the user’s details. Whereas in the proposed system, every slot has a number which makes it easier for the user to find out the empty slot. IR sensors are used to detect the vehicle and the empty slot is displayed on LCD as well as cloud server where the user’s details are secured. Smart parking system is an IoT based system which includes Raspberry pi, LED display, Cloud Server, Monitor and IR Sensors that are available in each parking slot. The proposed system leverages the advantages of IR sensor technology to accurately detect the presence of vehicles in parking spaces, provides real-time information to the users, and improves overall parking efficiency. The paper discusses the system architecture, sensor deployment strategies, and implementation, thereby showcasing the potential benefits of IR sensor-based smart parking systems.

Moving Vehicle Number Plate Detection

Abstract: The ability to detect and recognize vehicle license plates is a crucial task in various applications such as traffic management, law enforcement, and parking systems. In this project, we propose a system for moving vehicle license plate detection using image and video processing techniques. The system employs a combination of computer vision algorithms and machine learning models to accurately locate and recognize license plates from moving vehicles in real-time. The input images or video frames are preprocesses to enhance the regions containing license plates and reduce noise. This preprocessing step may include operations such as resizing, grayscale conversion, noise reduction, and contrast enhancement. Next, object detection algorithms such as Haar cascades or deep learning-based techniques like YOLO (You Only Look Once) are utilized to detect candidate regions in the image/frame that potentially contain license plates. After candidate regions are identified, a series of image processing techniques such as morphological operations, contour detection, and character segmentation are employed to isolate and extract the license plate characters. Machine learning models like Support Vector Machines (SVM), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are then applied to recognize the characters on the license plate.

Low carbon optimization dispatching of energy intensive industrial park based on adaptive stepped demand response incentive mechanism

In order to reduce the operation cost and carbon emissions of the energy intensive industrial park (EIIP) system, a low-carbon optimal dispatching method considering the parameter adaptive demand response (DR) incentive mechanism is proposed. Firstly, the carbon capture system (CCS) and power to gas (P2G) equipment are introduced into the EIIP. Meanwhile, according to the different regulation types of loads’ DR capacity, a stepped DR incentive mechanism model including three parameters of interval length, compensation base price and price growth rate is proposed; Secondly, a bi-layer optimization model with the objective of minimizing the operation cost at the energy supply side and maximizing the energy efficiency at the load side of the EIIP is established. The DR Mechanism parameter optimization layer is constructed outside the two-layer optimization model, so as to establish a three-layer optimization model of the stepped DR mechanism considering parameter adaptation; The Kepler optimization algorithm (KOA) is used to optimize and implement the adaptive changes of mechanism parameters, further demonstrate the mechanism in the low-carbon optimal dispatching of EIIP; Finally, the simulation results based on multiple scenarios show that the proposed method improves the effectiveness of EIIP system operation economy and reduces carbon emissions.

A novel trading optimization strategy of source-load bilateral thermoelectric spot based on industrial parks interior

With the continuous reform of the electricity market in the whole world, internal trading models in parks are generally studied in terms of load peaking, load flexibility and energy management. In this paper, the regional differential trading method is adopted for industrial users with different energy needs, and the interests of all parties within the industrial park are considered. Spot transactions involving surplus energy on both the supply side and the demand side are considered, and the weight allocation of transactions in each park is coordinated. Firstly, the way of circulating waste heat and power within the industrial park is analyzed from the composition of the trading system of the industrial park. The demand side is transported heat and electricity while the energy storage device is considered. The contact line is modeled on the basis of the energy transmission line characteristics. Secondly, the industrial park is disaggregated regionally using cascade analysis within the target area to decide load regulation mode between systems and modules. Thirdly, regional differences in trading are adopted for industrial users with different energy needs while the interests of all parties within the park are considered. Both sides of the supply side and the demand side participate in spot trading of surplus energy. The allocation of weights is coordinated for trading in the various industrial parks. Finally, The DICOPT solver optimizes operating costs and takes into account energy abandonment penalties. In the waste heat power transaction in the industrial park, the remaining power can be saved by 9.78 %, and the waste heat can be saved by 4.35 %. Numerical results from instances indicate that this method surpasses traditional trading approaches, aligning with the rigorous standards of scientific research.
