Abstract:
A device configured to receive a resource reservation request that identifies a user and a resource. The device is further configured to generate a resource allocation that includes an association between the user, location information for the resource, a resource identifier for the resource, and a token value. The device is further configured to associate the resource allocation with a time interval indicating a deadline for using the resource allocation. The device is further configured to receive a reservation verification request from a network device. The device is further configured to determine the location information for the network device is within a predetermined distance from the location information for the resource, to determine the resource identifier matches the resource identifier for the resource, and to determine a current time is within the time interval. The device is further configured to generate resource allocation instructions authorizing access to the resource.
