University RFID-Enabled Event Management Information System(URFID-EEMIS)
Ab Rahman, Anis Afzan · 2009
This dissertation focuses on the research and development phase of University RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)-Enabled Event Management Information System, which aims to automate the current method of conveying information such as venue of class changed, class postponed/cancelled, date of quiz and tests, due date of assignment or project, and event update to the students ofUniversiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP). The key objectives for this University RFID-Enabled Event Management Information System (URFID - EEMIS) includes capturing the unique ID stored in each RFID tags from the registered students, then validate the information with the database from backend system and display information to the students. Based on the author research, RFID technology is suitable to be used in the system due to its unique characteristics compared to other available technology nowadays. It is hope that this system can be used as an alternative tool to convey the information or messages to the UTP students in future. Methodology that will be used in developing University RFID-Enabled Event Management Information System is prototyping-based methodology. The author chooses this methodology because it can provides a system for the users to interact with very quickly, even if it is not ready for widespread yet. In addition to that, prototypingbased methodology helps to more quickly refine real requirements. ll1
