ABSTRACT
Now a days, it is highly possible to adapt mobile computing in various applications. The
portability, open source nature of smart phones and android development platform has made the
development of application software for various environments as handy. Smartphone applications
are resulted in paper less work, easy to use and time saving in nature. The wireless
communication technology of smart phone enables the information transfer from the current client
to remote database server, where ever the network range is available
The Attendance Management System is a mobile computing software application, which focusses
on an activity or function, which is based on management information system of academic
institutions. In this work, the systems functionalities are categorized as a group and the similarities
in grouped functionalities are designed and developed with reuse of software components.

1. INTRODUCTION
In the current scenario of various educational institutions to manage and maintaining student
information is very tough task for any one. The whole academic record of the student information
consist of monitoring their performance and progress changes periodically which is very huge
workload on lecturers to handle and keep on updating the progress report of each and every
student in against of their respective scheduled classes. The traditional way of taking attendance
through the lecturers is a manually in a register book in which they are used to do a manual
calculation to maintain monthly attendance database of the students. Such system takes so much
time to generate record and many times its creates an error also as it follow manual traditional
system
1.1. Problem Definition
Apart from this error problems some time many more problems are generated like lost of
attendance register book or manually fake data inserted through unknown recourses which are
really not authorized for that work. In order to reduce all these problems and concern overcome
through this problem, a smart mobile based application is generated to increase its efficiency
as well as its security by sending all information about the students to the authorized web based
admin panel server as it linked in the proposed mobile application. It is a beneficial step in
every way for our future E-schools.
It consist of five modules such as admin controlling, teachers authentication, student
authentication, displaying digital register, submitting final report to the given admin web based
server. This android based application used by the teacher to login and through its subject id
and class id display the digital register for the particular class students and finally submit it to
the authorized admin panel. As it already defined that the admin panel is totally web based
secured web site which is authorized to make changes in any of the database of the students as
well as the teachers

10
Therefore, it is crucial to reinforce the use of the mobile based attendance application to register
system in order to improve the traditional process of recording and reporting the student’s
attendance in the higher educational organizations
1.2.PROJECTOVERVIEW
All the above systems are time consuming and unsafe. In the proposed project Android based
attendance system is designed which is less time consuming, safe and easy to implement
because-
User Friendly: - This software is user friendly as it is simple to use and the user doesn’t need
any special training to use this software. Data evaluation, data storing and retrieval is easy and
doesn’t need any heavy calculation or method. The UI is simple and easy to understand.
Easy and Fast report generation: Reports are generated automatically fast in an easy way
after each month for the teacher to keep a track on the students attendance record and notify
the students with minimum attendance to attend classes.
Minimal paper work: There is no paper work required. Data are stored automatically in the
system. Evaluation are done automatically. Hence it is cost effective too.
Time Saving: Data storing, data retrieval, data evaluation is done at minimum time hence it is
time saving producing data with minimal errors.
1.3. Hardware Requirement
Processor : All compatible
Memory : minimum 512mb RAM
Network : internet connection

11
Others : mouse, keyboard, system
1.4. Software Requirement
Platform : All compatible
Framework : Android

2. LITERATURE SURVEY
2.1. Existing System
Todayfaculty take attendance through pen paper based with is the oldest method of
taking attendance. In has many cons and it limit the access of seeing and tracking
students overall attendance
Problem with current scenario
In the present system all work is done on paper. The whole session attendance is
stored in register and at the and of the sessionthe reports are generated. We are not
interested in generating report in the middle of the session or as per the requirement
because it takes more time in calculation. At the end of session the students who
don’thave 75% attendance get a notice.
Limitations of Present System
2.2. ProposedSystem
The purposeof developing attendance management system is to computerized the
tradition way of taking attendance. Another purposefor developing this software is
to generate the report automatically at the end of the session or in the between of the
session
Features:
 User friendly
 Reports are easily generated
 Very less paper work
 Computer Operator Control

13
2.3. FEASIBILITY STUDY
This system is feasible because of the following reasons:
Economically Feasibility: This software is economic from school or colleges point of view.
It is cost effective as use of paper has been eliminated .It is time effective since evaluation of
attendance and report generation is done in less amount of time with minimal errors.
Technical feasibility: This software is technically feasible since there are no extra hardware
requirements. The only requirement is an android smartphone with minimum version 4.2 jelly
Bean.
Behavioral Feasibility: This software is very simple to use. The user doesn’t need any special
training to use this software. The software has been designed keeping the users point of view

3.7. TESTING
(1) Unit Testing: Unit testing focuses verification effort on the smallest unit of
software design- the software component or module. The unit test is white-box
oriented. The unit testing implemented in every module of student attendance
management System. by giving correct manual input to the system,the datas are
stored in database and retrieved. If you want required module to access input or
get the output from the End user. any error will accrued the time will provide
handler to show what type of error will accrued
(2) System Testing: System testing is actually a series of different tests whose primary
purpose is to fully exercise the computer-based system. Below we have described
the two types of testing which have been taken for this project. it is to check all
modules worked on input basis .if you want change any values or inputs will
change all information. so specified input is must.
(3) Performance Testing: Performance testing is designed to test the run-time
performance of software within the context of an integrated system.
Performance testing occurs throughout all steps in the testing process. Even at
the unit level, the performance of an individual module may be assessed as
white-box tests are conducted. This project reduce attendance table, codes. it
will generate report fast.no have extra time or waiting of results .entered correct
data will show result few millisecond. just used only low memory of our system.
Automatically do not getting access atanother software. Get user permission and
access to other applications.
:
 Unit Testing
Unit testing focuses verification efforts on the smallest unit of the software design, the
module. This is also known as “Module Testing”. The modules are tested separately. This testing
carried out during programming stage itself. In this testing each module is found to be working
satisfactorily as regards to the expected output from the module.

54
 Integration Testing
Data can be grossed across an interface; one module can have adverse efforts on another.
Integration testing is systematic testing for construction the program structure while at the same
time conducting tests to uncover errors associated with in the interface. The objective is to take unit
tested modules and build a program structure. All the modules are combined and tested as a whole.
Here correction is difficult because the isolation of cause is complicate by the vast expense of the
entire program. Thus in the integration testing stop, all the errors uncovered are corrected for the
text testing steps.
System testing
System testing is the stage of implementation that is aimed at ensuring that the system works
accurately and efficiently for live operation commences. Testing is vital to the success of the system.
System testing makes a logical assumption that if all the parts of the system are correct, then goal
will be successfully achieved.

55
Validation Testing
At the conclusion of integration testing software is completely assembled as a package,
interfacing errors have been uncovered and corrected and a final series of software tests begins,
validation test begins. Validation test can be defined in many ways. But the simple definition is
that validation succeeds when the software function in a manner that can reasonably expected by
the customer. After validation test has been conducted one of two possible conditions exists.
One is the function or performance characteristics confirm to specifications and are
accepted and the other is deviation from specification is uncovered and a deficiency list is created.
Proposed system under consideration has been tested by using validation testing and found to be
working satisfactorily.
 Output Testing
After performing validation testing, the next step is output testing of the proposed system since no
system could be useful if it does not produce the required output in the specified format. Asking the
users about the format required by them tests the outputs generated by the system under
consideration. Here the output format is considered in two ways, one is on the screen and other is
the printed format. The output format on the screen is found to be correct as the format was designed
in the system designed phase according to the user needs.
For the hard copy also the output comes as the specified requirements by the users.
Hence output testing does not result any corrections in the system.User Acceptance Testing

56
User acceptance of a system is the key factor of the success of any system. The system
under study is tested for the user acceptance by constantly keeping in touch with the prospective
system users at the time of developing and making changes wherever required.
3.8. ADVANTAGES OF PROJECT
Collect and store data automatically
With the help of software, data can be automatically collected and stored. Those data can later be
used for calculating attendance of the employees or students. Thus attendance can be managed
well.
Serve as a helping hand to administrative tasks
The software helps to cut off administrative tasks. Management of attendance is a tedious task for
administration. But it becomes easier and faster by the usage of online attendance software.
Helps to eliminate errors caused by humans
Humans are prone to make errors. Some of the errors may be serious to handle. Using software,
human errors can be eliminated completely.
Possible to update and maintain attendance records
It is a difficult task to update and maintain attendance manually. One can easily update and
maintain attendance records with the help of software. And those records will be accurate and free
from errors.
Saves money by improving employee performance and productivity

57
Attendance software can restrict unnecessary movements of employees. Laziness of employees
can be reduced and thus helps to increase productivity. Hence software can increase profit for
your organization. Productivity and employee performance is increased by the implementation of
attendance software in institutions. There will be less possibility for absenteeism as well after this
software is installed.
3.9. DISADVANTAGES
 Increased Equipment expense:
Organization has to spend more money on device, badges and passes. But in manual way of
taking attendance, there is not much expense involved. All they require is a register and a pen to
mark the attendance.
 Difficult to maintain and repair
As it is a software, there is a need for proper maintenance. It is difficult to maintain and repair a
software. Though it might be rare, once it is damaged, there would be expense for the sake of
repairing.
 System is ineffective if there is no power supply
Software becomes useless if there is no power supply. The whole system works on power. But
this is not the case with the manual way of taking attendance.
Just like a coin is having two sides, each and everything in the world has negative as well as
positive sides. Depending upon the requirements, each company will have different software.
Only thing that can be done is to keep in mind these drawbacks and manage it well for efficient
management of attendance.

58
4. CONCLUSION
By this system Attendance marking and report generation becomes easy. Less
chances of malfunctioning are there. The system has reached a steady state
where all bugs have been eliminated.
The system is operated at a high level of efficiency and all the teachers and user
associated with the system understands its advantage. It was intended to solve as
requirement specification. In future this system can be implemented to automate
most of the educational systems and it can be designed for cross platform.
This project is intended to replace the age old system of attendance register with
a digital register which can show its worthiness by its features and ease of use.
With due course of time we intend it to establish a connection with the college
server so as to access and update the attendance over the college LAN. Features
like sending warning messages to the students with low attendance, and a student
portal to check their attendance are planning to get added.
