...witnessing a new kind of revolution—the Information Revolution—ushered in by technology. This revolution is far more sweeping than any other revolution in history in its reach and influence, bringing fundamental changes in all aspects of our life. Information technology is the use of computers and software to manage information. As computers grew in speed and capability, a number of general-purpose database systems emerged. In the present context, I have great pleasure in presenting “Factory Time Attendance Management System (FTAMS)” program. This program is used by factories of all sizes. The FTAMS works with RFID time attendance devices to manage working hours of employees recorded in the devices in order to pay their wages. FTAMS could protect a factory from payroll fraud and provide both employer and employees with confidence in the accuracy of their wage payments. The present system is necessarily providing a convenient, simple, and comprehensive program on managing the time and attendance system for the benefits of employees and the factory. I wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you to your education. Writing this book has been a lot of fun for me and I sincerely hope that you get a lot out of it. I have tried to be balanced in presenting both the advantages and disadvantages of some of the new ideas. I encourage you to adopt a similar open and critical stance when reading this book. You are welcome to e-mail me at so.sereyboth@gmail.com with your thoughts and...

...php/IJECE RFID Based Attendance Management System Shashank Shukla, Shailee Shah, Pooja Save Department of Information Technology, Thakur College of Engineering & Technology (TCET) Kandivali-400101, Mumbai University, India Article Info ABSTRACT Article history: Received Jul 19, 2013 Revised Oct 8, 2013 Accepted Oct 30, 2013 Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio waves to transfer data from an electronic tag, called RFID tag or label, attached to an object, through a reader for the purpose of identifying and tracking the object. RFID technology is a matured technology that has been widely deployed by various organizations as a part of their automation systems. In this project, an RFID based system has been built in order to produce an attendance management system. An automated attendance management software will not only make the entire process simple, but will also provide a well-structured and analyzed report of the pattern of student attendance and time management, which can further help in allocating and using the human resources in an organization to the maximum possible benefit. This system consists of two main parts which include: the hardware and the software. The hardware consists of a motor unit and RFID reader. The RFID reader, which is a low-frequency reader (125 kHz), is connected to the host computer via a serial to USB converter cable. The Time-Attendance System GUI is developed...

...are one of the momentous recent developments in information and communication technology that is one way of improving instructive issues. It introduces new types of attending attendance techniques like just by tapping the "Boxes" that implicates the students on a touch capable device specifically a Smartphone. Today, the current condition of the instructors is that they felt hassle in a manual calculation. They seemed in a need of another way to make their life easy in calculating the student’s attendance and for them to have a reliable results and information. This problem aims the faculties to have a system that will satisfy their needs and for the students to access in an easy way to their attendance records. This may one way of solving and providing the needs of faculties and students in an effective way of getting attendance and acquiring important information which is convenient and accessible for the users to whom which can have it right away.

...Although the team has been successful from a performance standpoint, the University of Miami does not have the same success in attendance records for football games. According to the National College Athletics Association, the Hurricanes did not rank in the top thirty for attendance in division one college football games in 2009. The University of Miami only averaged 47,551 fans per game, while the University of Michigan had the highest average attendance of 108,933 fans per game. Moreover, even the University of California, which is the thirtieth place team, had an average attendance greater than the University of Miami: 59,472 fans per game. How could one of the top college football programs in the country struggle to fill its stands with fans? Perhaps the Hurricanes stadium does not have the capacity to hold as many fans as the other top college football stadiums. The Hurricanes currently play at Dolphin Stadium, which can only hold 75,540 fans. Prior to the Dolphin Stadium, the Hurricanes played at the Orange Bowl, which had an even smaller capacity of 72,319 fans. The capacity of both of these stadiums would have allowed Miami to rank in the in the top twenty for attendance during the 2001 football season. Since the University of Miami can have more fans attend football games, I researched what potential variables could lead to higher attendance statistics. The results...

...records of attendance from falling out of popularity. Not that people are afraid of going through changes, and certainly not because there aren’t any other alternatives, but only because no one has cared. In reality, this method is fast becoming obsolete; in fact that time is already now. So in contrast with this modern day and age, when most tasks have long since been automated, many may even call this approach still being used in school today as history. The paper method was convenient for a while until it became such a clutter just keeping them. Also, this type of record-keeping is not the most reliable as they are in constant danger of being damaged and being lost in passage or in handling. Records in paper can be cheated too –and trees could have been spared for more reasonable purposes especially when their numbers are thinning down. Manufacturing is more efficient and faster than ever. Not so long ago the components needed for automating the most common systems were being produced in a much slower pace than in today’s standards, which explains too why the cost was higher back then. But nowadays the production shows no sign of slowing down; it is even increasing exponentially. On the other hand, the prices drop down and the demand grows in scale. Thus the same will be true for automating an access and attendance monitoring system: it is not as expensive as one might think. Also it is appropriate in this generation of students that attendance keeping is...

When Jesus multiplied the loaves and fish, he did not only feed the peoples physical hunger but their need to be concern for one another and sense of community as well John’s gospel focuses on Jesus’ divinity. Jesus’ signs (healing, feeding etc) point to something beyond the physical. The sharing of the bread expresses God’s love and “love always means abundance”. There is never enough until we give it away. August 5 1st Reading – Exodus 16:1-4, 12-15 2nd Reading – Ephesians 4:17, 20-24 Gospel – John 6:24-35 "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger." Jesus tells those seeking him that their reason for doing so is the wrong one. Food that nourishes their bodies needs to be replenished; hunger pains will again the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst be felt.

...ABSTRACT ‘AUTOMATED ATTENDANCE SYSTEM ’ is designed to collect and manage student’s attendance records from RFID devices installed in a class rooms. Based on the verification of student identification at the entrances system, the RFID tag can be embedded in the ID card of the individual. First to activate a new session(hour) the teacher swipes her RFID tag this marks a new attendance session during which the students can swipe once to increment their attendance. The RFID module operate in 125Khz range, when a tag passes through its vicinity, the module senses its presence and extracts its unique serial number and passes this code into microcontroller which matches the code to the correct person and increments the attendance of the particular person.

..._________________________________________________________________________________ Automatic Biometric Student Attendance System: A Case Study Christian Service University College Dr Thomas Yeboah Dr Ing Edward Opoku-Mensah Mr Christopher Ayaaba Abilimi ABSTRACT In many tertiary institutions in Ghana such as Christian Service University the attendance of students is very important factor since it forms part of the students’ assessment and evaluation. It has therefore become imperative that proper measures should be put in place to ensure that no student signs for another. It has been observed that at Christian Service University College lecturers sometimes give the attendance book to students to sign without actually supervising them to see whether the right student is signing or making sure that no student signs for another. Moreover, if a lecturer wants to supervise the signing of the attendance book to make sure that the right student is signing and no student signs for a friend then the lecturer may end up by wasting a significant amount of the lecture period on the signing supervision. Furthermore, in the larger classes lecturers sometimes use their own ideology and principles to award the attendance marks (5%) that counts towards continuous assessment for students because they find counting each individual student’s attendance laborious, boring and even error prone. This means that the 5% marks obtained by students from attendance sometimes does not give a true picture about the student and therefore proper...

...“Attendance Monitoring in EARIST” INTRODUCTION The emergence of electronic paradigm for learning compared to traditional method and availability of almost all information on the information superhighway(Internet), nowadays have caused students to be less motivated to come to the lecture rooms than ever before. Laziness on the part of students, nonchalance to school work, extra social activities that have no importance in aiding the objectives of the institution and a lot more, may prevent students from attending lectures. Sequel to these, lecturers and administrators in most developing countries have had to come up with ways to ensure a healthy participation from students, and make sure that the student-lecturer interactive relationship is kept intact. This in some cases have come in simple forms like roll calls, while in more interesting cases, can be formats like surprise quizzes, extra credit in class, etc. These strategies are however time consuming, stressful and laborious because the valuable lecture time that could otherwise been used for lectures is dedicated to student attendance taking [8] and sometimes not accurate. In addition to all these challenges, the attendances are recorded manually by the tutor and therefore are prone to personal errors. There arises a need for a more efficient and effective method of solving this problem. A technology that can solve this problem and even do more is the RFID technology. RFID is an automated identification and data...

...Theoretical Background A.R.A (Attendance and Room Automation), as the title suggest, this project is about automation. In applying creating this project we, the proponents, aim to integrate multiple devices to produce a system that would automate a room as well as attendance checking. But what is automation? According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, automation is “the technique of making an apparatus, a process, or a system operates automatically. The theory of automation states that “there are three building blocks of automation (1) a source of power to perform action, (2) feedback controls, and (3) machine programming.” (http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/44912/automation/24840/Modern-developments#toc24841) Power source, being a self-running device, it is necessary for it to have its own power source. The feedback control is the sensing part of the system; this will be the one that gathers the input to be processed delivers the output and will run the actuating device. Last would be the machine programming, provided by the proponents for the whole system to run. Theoretical Framework Each of the devices is supported by different theories which we hope we would be able to integrate. A microcontroller “is a small computer on a single IC containing a processor core, memory, and a programmable Input/Output peripheral.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcontroller) We will be using this device as the brain of the system. We will be using the memory of the IC to encode...
