Design of an RFID based Students/Employee Attendance System

The record of student attendance in most universities is done by calling the roll. This kind of calling is not only waste of class time, but also cannot be a true reflection of the real student attendance. The use of an alternative new system is becoming a mandate to manage students and staff attendance. The Radio Frequency Identification is the technology which will be applied as infrastructure in the indoor environment to enable the college administration to get the advantages and to improve the university's monitoring framework, taking into considerations some factors such as time saving, reliability, efficient and easy to control. This paper automates those outline and execution of a students’/employees’/lecturers’ attendance management system using hardware and software in Al-Nahrain University in Iraq-Baghdad. This system is named Al-Nahrain University Student Employee Attendance Management System (AUSEAMS). This system initially uses a web based database coupled with RFID tagging system with acquire finish framework purpose the place the majority of the data may be manipulated. Preliminary simulation results of the proposed system confirm the validity of the system.
