Routine Management System

Abstract

Routine management system (RMS) is a Java based software used to automatically generate timetable. Currently at the Islamic University of Technology, timetable generation follows a manual process. Thus, there is a high probability of making errors in overlapping timetable period or slot and definitely a valuable amount of time is wasted as there are many things to be considered. Routine Management System (RMS) comes with the intension to reduce the workload of the users, facilitate their operational duties and finally save their time. It will help to manage all the periods automatically. The user is only required to set a timetable for a batch and accordingly all related timetables (Teachers, Rooms and Labs) will automatically be set by the system. By using this software, a user can select the VIEW section to view and print each timetable related to a particular batch, teacher, room or lab in an easy and simple manner. Users can manage these modules by adding, dropping and editing them. Routine management system (RMS) also contains an embedded database which stores the records of every batch, room, lab and teacher with their respective timetables. The system is a comprehensive timetable management solution for Islamic University of Technology (IUT) aiming solely to help overcome the challenges in manually setting the academic timetables.
