Requirements
Functional Requirements:
- Assign first-fitting spot - On arrival, find the earliest free spot that can fit the vehicle size across floors.
- Issue ticket on entry - Generate unique ticket with vehicle, spot, and entry time.
- Compute fee on exit - Calculate duration and apply active PricingStrategy.
- Lot full handling - If no suitable spot exists, indicate 'Lot Full'.
Core Objects & Relationships
Based on the requirements and use cases, identify the main objects of the system and analyze how they interact and relate to each other...
