Abstract :
Exam hall seating arrangement is a complex
task when allocation is to be done to numerous students.
Maintaining a proper exam hall setup is one of the major
concerns in many institutions. Automating this will
reduce manual work and less paperwork. Our proposed
work implements a PHP application with CRON job
using an open-source package – PHP Mailer to send
notification through email one-day prior to the exam
date. This work also includes auto-allocation of seats
based on the exam dates and timings, thereby ensuring
no two students are allotted to the same seat. This
project implements staff management, student
management and hall seating management. Report
generation is not achieved in many applications, and it is
manually done. This is achieved in our project using the
TCPDF open-source package, by generating PDF of the
seating arrangement. The hall invigilating staff receive a
mail with a PDF report showing details of every student
assigned to the hall. The students receive a mail one-day
prior to the exam and also an hour before the start of the
exam starting their exam date, allotted hall number and
block details.
