Abstract
In one example implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a host processing device, timestamps from a vehicle processing system of a target vehicle, the timestamps being determined based at least in part on parking area data for a target parking area and vehicle data for the target vehicle. The method further includes calculating, by the host processing device, an arrival rate and a service rate based on the timestamps. The method further includes calculating, by the host processing device, a probability of parking availability for the target parking area based at least in part on the arrival rate and the service rate. The method further includes controlling, by the host processing device, the vehicle based at least in part on the probability of parking availability for the target parking area.
