Different activity is expected from these types of customers.1.The ordinary customer must press a button on the control pillar, and a ticket is printed andissued. The ticket must be printed within five seconds. A ‘Take Ticket’ display is flashed on thecontrol pillar. When the customer pulls the ticket from the control pillar, the barrier is raised. Ifthe car park is full, no ticket is issued, and a ‘Full’ display is flashed on the control pillar. 2.The fixed ticket holder does not press the button, but insert their fixed ticket into a slot on thecontrol pillar. A check is made that the ticket is valid for this car park and has not expired. If allthese checks are passed, then the barrier is raised. The checks must take no longer than fiveseconds. A record is made of the time of entry. Exit the Car Park 1.Fixed ticket holders do not have to go to the pay station, when they are ready to leave the carpark, they go to the exit and insert their ticket into a slot on the exit barrier control pillar. Thebarrier is raised and a record is made of the time at which the ticket holder left. 2.Ordinary ticket holders should go to the payment station to pay for their trip. To do so, theticket is inserted into a slot, the bar code is checked and the fees will be calculated. Uponsuccessful payment, the customer can go to the exit and insert their ticket into a slot on the exitbarrier control pillar.

Collin's Car Parking Management System_2
The City administration has a contract with security companies to visit the car parks at regular intervals.The contract specifies the number of visits per day to each car park and the minimum duration of eachvisit. When a security guard arrives in a car park, he or she puts a card into the card reader and the dateand time of arrival is recorded. When the security guard leaves, he or she puts the card in again, and thedeparture time is recorded. (This card also allows security guards to enter and leave the car park in thesame way as fixed ticket holders. However, this is not used to record the arrival and departure ofsecurity guards, as they may not be able to enter with a vehicle if there is a queue of cars at the barrier.)Entity Relationship Diagram
