Design and implementation of a lecture alert system for computer science department

Description

Abstract

This project is on Design and implementation of a lecture alert system for computer science department. A lecture alert system has been developed using web-based technologies known for their portability. This backend system was interfaced with an SMS API. The SMS API application known as Application Programming Interface (API) generates updates and reminders from a time schedule stored in a database thereby making the system a time-triggered application. This project work designed a lecture alert system that uses SMS to enable lecturers to know when they have lectures and also deliver the venue, department, day, date and time to their phones. The proposed system allowed for easy and enhanced communication between the administrator in charge of messages and the users (recipient), to ensure the proper dissemination of information. The design and implementation of a lecture alert system was accomplished using HTML, PHP and MySQL
