Recently, various advanced technologies have been employed to build smart cities. Smart cities
aim to improve the quality of life by delivering better services. One of the essential services for any smart city
is the availability of sufficient parking spaces to ensure smooth and efficient traffic flow.
This research proposes a new framework for solving the problem of parking lot allocation, emphasizing the
equitable distribution of users based on the total number of people in each parking area. The allocation process
is carried out while considering the available parking lots in each area.
To achieve this goal, the study develops a set of seven algorithms aimed at reducing the gap in the number
of people between parking areas. Numerous experiments were conducted on 2,430 different cases to evaluate
aspects such as execution time and gap calculations, in order to assess the performance of the developed
algorithms.
The analysis of the obtained results indicates strong performance of the proposed algorithms. It also
demonstrates that the algorithms effectively solve the studied problem in terms of both gap reduction and
computational time. The MR algorithm achieved excellent performance compared to one of the best algorithms
in the literature, with an accuracy of 96.1%, an average gap of 0.02, and an execution time of 0.007 s.
