...witnessing a new kind of revolution—the Information Revolution—ushered in by technology. This revolution is far more sweeping than any other revolution in history in its reach and influence, bringing fundamental changes in all aspects of our life. Information technology is the use of computers and software to manage information. As computers grew in speed and capability, a number of general-purpose database systems emerged. In the present context, I have great pleasure in presenting “Factory Time Attendance Management System (FTAMS)” program. This program is used by factories of all sizes. The FTAMS works with RFID time attendance devices to manage working hours of employees recorded in the devices in order to pay their wages. FTAMS could protect a factory from payroll fraud and provide both employer and employees with confidence in the accuracy of their wage payments. The present system is necessarily providing a convenient, simple, and comprehensive program on managing the time and attendance system for the benefits of employees and the factory. I wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you to your education. Writing this book has been a lot of fun for me and I sincerely hope that you get a lot out of it. I have tried to be balanced in presenting both the advantages and disadvantages of some of the new ideas. I encourage you to adopt a similar open and critical stance when reading this book. You are welcome to e-mail me at so.sereyboth@gmail.com with your thoughts and...

...A FINGERPRINT BASED BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATION AND IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM FOR TIME AND ATTENDANCE MANAGEMENT ABSTRACT This project is about designing a system that automates the whole process of taking attendance and maintaining its records in an academic institute. Managing people is a difficult task for most of the organizations, and maintaining the attendance record is an important factor in people management. When considering academic institutes, taking the attendance of students on daily basis and maintaining the records is a major task. Manually taking the attendance and maintaining it for a long time adds to the difficulty of this task as well as wastes a lot of time. For this reason an efficient system is designed. This system takes attendance electronically with the help of a fingerprint sensor and all the records are saved on a computer server. In order to mark the attendance, student/staff has to place his/her finger on the fingerprint sensor. On identification student’s attendance record is updated in the database and he/she is notified through a screen. .

...become a form of identification but it will be also be used as an attendance card. The proposed system will store different data like the subject of each students and its particular time and room, and what time the student attends their class as well as, what time they leave that particular class. B. Assumptions and Constraints The aim of the study is to develop a system that can check and manage the attendance of each student in an efficient and reliable way. This system will not only benefit the students but will also benefit the parents, faculty members and other students. Less work, easier way of looking for a certain student, check the availability of the student and to check if the student attends their class are the major goals of this project. To develop a system that can replace the old not-so-useful type of Identification system and develop a database that will store name and student number, the subject of a student in a particular time and what room, what time the student attends that class and leaves that class. C. Objectives The new identification system aims to prepare itself with efficient work to be able to compete and be a reliable source of information. In support of the school’s goal in having an up-to-date system of education. • To make the records easier to find and updates the database easily. • To check the availability of the students. • To keep in track of the students attendance. • To keep the data secured and cannot be changed by unauthorized...

...hypothesis that there are more short term effects and very few suffer any long term effects of divorce. Although few respondents answered yes to the short term problem of regression, many respondents answered yes to having suffered with the short term problems in their grades/attendance and long term problems in their relationships/marriage. The Effects of Divorce on Children These days marriages seem almost disposable. If one isn’t happy, divorce can be as easy as expending out a bit of cash, signing some papers andthe marriage is over! Divorce rates have been on the rise since the 1960s when 90% of American children lived with both their biological parents, now that percent has dropped to approximately 40% (Divorce, 2001). In fact, in 2011, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention reported a marriage rate of 6.8 per 1,000 total population and a divorce rate of just about half that at 3.6 per 1,000 total population (Marriage, 2013). When children are involved,the stakes become higher and ultimately they are the ones who suffer. The researcher questioned whether suffering effected children long term with relationships and/or short term with regression or grades and attendance....

...defined period of time. An incentive program is designed to lift performance outputs of a group of people by increasing their motivation. If I were a member of senior management I would be concerned about the negative impact of Park’s plan. It is obvious that there is a need to renegotiate, but the proposed change is a form of negative reinforcement. Studies show that negative reinforcement is not as effective at motivating employees as positive reinforcement. The original agreement was a form of positive reinforcement that in the beginning was thought to be a win-win for the employees and the company. I feel that the organization had the right idea, but will explain why it did not work later in this paper. In addition to the negative nature of the program I would also be concerned about “punishing” employees for absences beyond their control. For instance, if an employee experiences an illness or personal matter that takes them over their standard allowance, according to Park’s plan they would have their vacation decreased for the next period If they are beyond this allowance, these days would probably be unpaid and they would receive an attendance citation. To me this seems like a double negative. Also you must consider the timeliness of addressing attendance issues. Park’s program addresses present attendance issues in the future. An employee who experienced uncontrollable absences in the previous reporting period may have satisfactory attendance in the present...

...city. He believed that if we went out into the neighborhoods we would get a better response than having the meetings at city hall. I has been my experience we see a better turn out of residents if we had regularly scheduled meetings in a place that was familiar to our citizens. Having meetings in different locations, on different days and at different hours, would not be conducive to attendance or capturing the trust of our residents. After much discussion, Juan said he wanted us to do it his way. Some of the committee members just shrugged their shoulders and proceeded with his direction. The first meeting was held on a Tuesday night at the home of one of our committee members. One would initially believe that attendance was great for this meeting because of what appeared to be a full house. But if you analyzed the attendance, we had all the members of the committee, most members of the city council and only six residents from the neighborhood where the meeting took place. The second meeting was held a month later at the home of a different committee member and attendance was even worse than the first meeting. There were only five committee members and two residents present. It was finally my turn to lead a meeting and I became the rebel. I went against the direction of the committee chairman and had my meeting at city hall on a Sunday afternoon. We had...

...a year. Students are expected to complete all Aplia graded assignments by the specified due dates. There will be no extensions as the closing time is determined by computer. All assignments will be computer graded and scores and completion statistics will be reported by Aplia. Please see the Aplia documentation. Aplia assignments are the “homework” portion of the course grade and will be graded on the number of assignments completed and the percentage of correct answers as recognized by the computer. It is expected that students will spend approximately 2 to 3 hours, in addition to the time spent completing the Aplia assignments, preparing for each class. Additional time is required for the problems and analyses that are required. Attendance policy: There is a lot of material to be covered in this course. Therefore, it is important that every student attend every class, arriving on time. Attendance will be taken at the start of every class, and anyone not present will be marked absent. Three absences, for any reason, except University required activities, will result in a reduction of ½ grade for the course. Students who arrive late or who leave class during class time, for any reason, disrupt the class and will be considered to have been tardy. Three tardinesses will be considered one absence. Those students present on time and remaining throughout every class period will be granted a 3 percent bonus on their overall...

My mentor, Mrs. Crisp, portrays the ideal character and attitude to handle the fast-paced and demanding environment of the Attendance Office. Mrs. Crisp is a hard working individual, who is constantly putting others before herself to achieve peace and unity. It is truly unfortunate that many students will not get to know Mrs. Crisp in the manner of which I was able, as her optimism and humor always put a smile on my face. I will be forever grateful for having Mrs. Crisp as a mentor. The Attendance Office staff has also...

...Unit 15: M1 M1 – Access methods of achieving development needs within the time frame of the career plan Introduction For M1 I will be assessing methods that I will be achieving during the time period of my career plan. These methods will be based on my weaknesses and how I will be able to overcome them so my future plans can become more successful. I will also be comparing my career plan with my skills audit to see how they both perform in my future. Gaps in my skills For me to become a solicitor in the future I need to get into University with 300 ucas points. In order for me to get 300 ucas points I need to work very hard in college and try to achieve a distinction for this year to get into university quicker. The skills gaps that need to be obtained to help me are the ones which I am currently studying which are Business Level 3 B-Tec and also GCSE English level 2. I need these skills to enter University because they are required for the course I will be doing. GCSE English level 2 is a gap for me because I had previously gotten a grade lower in this subject and this can affect my future career plans if I do not change it. The way I will change this is by taking the English GCSE level 2 classes provided by college. I will have to retake the exams and work very hard to achieve the grade I want to get into university. It is important for me to identify my skills gap because if I do not then this can lead to a bad effect in my future career. For example if I do not move...

...Subject: Empowering the Parliamentary Oversight on issues related to Foreign Policy Summary A dire need exists to increase the involvement of Parliamentarians in the realm of Foreign Policy as advisory participants, which had been previously dominated exclusively by the Executive on the pretext of National Sovereignty. Despite the presence of noteworthy members on the Board of National Assembly’s Standing Committee on Foreign Policy, little progress has been made to advance the real aims of this Committee. Its failure can be attributed to multiple factors ranging from inherent institutional weakness to unavailability of adequate research facilities, leading to a prevalence of greater disinterest among the Board members, marked by low attendance, being witnessed during the meeting sessions of the Committee. Hence, an urgent call of action is required for maximum engagement of Parliamentary role in Foreign Policy formulation. Context The domain of foreign policy holds critical value for a country like Pakistan which is located at the crossroads of Great Powers like Russia & China. In addition, it also provides a route to Central Asian states which are endowed with massive reserves of oil & natural gas, providing significant economic incentives. Being a key ally of US in the on-going ‘War on Terrorism’ also enhances its strategic significance. As stated earlier, the Parliament’s role in the field of Foreign Policy had always been eclipsed by the Executive and the military...
