Reliability analysis of an IoT-based smart parking application for smart cities
Abstract
The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices demands robust structures for processing and storing trillion gigabytes of data. Part of those data can be used for evaluating the solution's effectiveness and to improve it. Hence, a reliability analysis based on the solution's produced data is important to validate it and find weaknesses to solve. Therefore, in this paper we process the data generated by a sensor-based smart parking system to present a reliability analysis. This system is implemented placing ultrasonic sensors, a web service, the FIWARE platform, and a mobile application to Android devices, in a three-layer architecture. We evaluate how many errors occur in a certain time window, the success and error rates and the most common kind of error produced. Finally, we conclude that even with some instability our sensing approach is effective with a worst case success rate greater than 96%. Moreover, we find out that our system works in an open environment with tropical climate conditions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
