DESIGNING PARKING SYSTEM-BASED VB.NET AND MYSQLUSING RADIO FREQUENCY AND IDENTIFICATION (RFID)

Parking system has become a significant need for a university. A good parking system is useful to ensure the user's vehicle safety. The current parking system applied in Universitas Muhammadi- yah Ponorogo is still manual. Instruments of the study are observation, interview, and software development method used is waterfall method.
