From the abstract: "This project researched the feasibility of implementing a reservation system for the most congested portions of the day on Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park. The team investigated public opinion of reservations, observed and collected data for numerous metrics and constraints regarding implementing reservations and also designed the reservation process. The team used simulation modeling software and a cost-effectiveness analysis to recommend the required infrastructure for an optimal reservation system."
