1.6 Organization of the Study
This research project is made up of five chapters.
Chapter
One gives an introduction to the research work, giving background
information of the project including problems, scope, objective and
significance of this study.
Chapter Two is the literature review. It
gives a detailed review of the manual system of keeping records, pros
and cons, and proposed approach to solving challenges of existing
system. It does this by analysing previous research work conducted by
other researchers.
Chapter Three is the system analysis and design
stage. In this chapter, a system is developed to solve problems posed by
existing system. An in-depth analysis on proposed system is carried out
to show exactly what functionalities and modules will be added. A
database will also be created to support various data entries.
Chapter
Four is the system implementation and documentation. Requirements for
the system are outlined, each unit of the study is also tested ensuring
correctness. A system maintenance will also be in place.
Chapter Five
is the summary, conclusion and recommendation. This will encompass all
discussed in the research work. Recommendations will also be made as to
further improvements to the system.
Appendices will contain some source code of the application as well as screenshots of the application.
1.7 Definition of Terms
1. Biometrics: This is the physical or behavioural attribute unique to each and every individual.
2.
Fingerprint Scanner: This is an electronic device used to capture the
biometric fingerprint characteristic of an individual.
3. Source Code: This is programming instruction written in a programming language when implementing the system.
4. Biometric Identifier: This is the specific behavioural or physical human attribute used in biometrics.
5. Flowchart: This is an algorithm in a diagrammatic sequence.
6. Database: This is an organized set of related data usually in rows and columns.
7. Fingerprint impression: This is a close up image or ink-print of a fingerprint.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTThis research work, Design and Implementation of an Attendance System using fingerprint scanner, focuses on computerizing and managing the attendance of students during lecture or event periods. This is very imperative as the cons of the traditional pen to paper attendance system far outweigh the pros as management of student attendance has become a hassle due to increasing number of students during various lecture periods. This study would discuss in detail, how the inconveniences posed ... Continue reading---

CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]2. Capacitance: This type of sensor acts in a parallel state with one parallel plate acting as the electrically conductive layer and the other plate acting as the non-conductive layer (Setlak, 2005).3. Ultrasonic: This sensor uses a high frequency sound wave to penetrate the fingertip skin. The measurements from such penetration results in the fingerprint image. (Majid and Saeed, 2005).Good fingerprint imaging comprises of two main properties:a. Salient: This means the fingerpr ... Continue reading---

CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 3 ]4.5 System Test-RunIn this stage, the software is tested for bugs and correctness. There are various ways the system was tested.a. Unit Testing – This is the testing of the smallest running program in the system. This is to ensure that a section works a certain way before implementing other units. The fingerprint attendance management system was implemented module by module. Each module was tested before implementing another module.b. Integration Testing – This is ... Continue reading---
