They are retrieval failure, interference failure to store and motivated forgetting. So, it is considered to have tools in order to prevent those. This happens almost everywhere, including when the drivers forgot where their car has been parked. Furthermore, the increase of parking fee is also considerable. The purpose of this research is to design a prototype system for mobile web as one of the helpful tools for car parking location reminder using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology that implemented at the parking building. The research is conducted by direct observation of the current system, do a comparison of similar applications, design the architecture of the system, make the programs, create a mock-up and mobile web as a prototype. The result of this research is a prototype of parking location reminder using RFID-based on mobile web. The mobile web displays information menu such as the location and the parking information. Based on the research, it is concluded that the mobile web can be used as one of solutions for parking location reminder and allows users to view information such as the parking duration and the parking fee estimation.

INTRODUCTION According to Loftus (2012), one of the world’s most renowned experts on human memory, humans have four major reasons why forgetting occurs. Those four factors that cause people often to forget are the retrieval failure/decay theory (disability to remember something because the trace of memory about that thing has been removed), interference: proactive and retroactive (disruption against the thing that will be remembered), failure to store (a thing that will be remembered again but has never been stored in memory) and motivated forgetting (cannot remember something because the brain is deliberately omitted from the memory due to factors such as trauma). Based on the data from Kompas Media (2011) that is adopted from Jakarta Transportation Agency, it is stated that the number of vehicles is increasing each year. Based on Jakarta Governor Regulation 120/2012/September 18 th , 2012, the car-parking fee increases to Rp. 3.000,00 up to Rp 5.000,00 for one hour and Rp. 2.000,00 up to Rp 4.000,00 for the next one hour (Table 1). The data shows us that the time is being very valuable right now. Currently, the existing parking system in Indonesia, especially in Jakarta, only serves to record the entry and exit of motor vehicles, especially cars. Based on the existing system at the moment, it needs a better system development in order to allow cars user to simply find the parking location and access parking information rapidly. Table 1.
