ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to present very special thanks to my supervisors, Mr. Sohail Safdar who had guide me since the beginning of Proposal Writing subject. Thanks to him for provide guidance, advice, and useful feedback regarding the final year project either in documentation parts or technical parts. In addition, guideline and briefing on how to produce a good quality report for this project also provided to me.

Next, I would like to thank to my academic supervisor Mr. Albert Yong who willing to take some time every tri-semester to advice me on how to manage time in order to finish the final year project on time. In addition, he also provides me with useful information in the way on how to study well.

Besides that, my thanks also go to my parents who keep on encouraging me while I facing problem and when I going to give up. Without their support, I may not be able finish my final year project on time. Their supports are truly appreciated.

Last but not least, my sincere thanks and appreciation go to my moderator, Mr. Lee Chen Kang who gives me a chance to express and present my final year project idea. And very thanks to him for take some time in evaluating the quality of my final year project either in the documentation part or technical part.

ABSTRACTS

This project document aims at introducing the presentation phase of a system. There are four chapters introduced in this project documents which is introduction part, literature review part, proposed method/approach part, and conclusion part. This project is about to study on biometric technologies and develop a hybrid student attendance system that based on fingerprint recognition of student in order to verify their attendance. In this system, desktop-based attendance system will be developed for student to scan their fingerprint with provided hardware for a purpose to verify their attendance in all classes. At the same time, web-based attendance system will be developed for admin/lecturer to view and analyze student attendance by generate the attendance report. The main purpose to develop this project is to replace the current traditional attendance system by provide faster, accurate, and efficient system. With this new fingerprint recognition attendance system, it can eliminate some problems such as buddy signing, loss of attendance sheet, and control student skip class rate. In developing this project, evolutionary prototyping had been applied as methodology that guides the direction of whole project development. Besides that, few fact-finding methods are used to collect the data for analysis such as survey questionnaire methods, review journals method, and observation method. This project is planned to develop using Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, Structured Query Language (SQL) Server, GrFinger Software Development Kit (SDK), and Microsoft Fingerprint Reader. Other than that, system analysis and design technique is used to illustrate necessary diagrams for purpose to illustrate the whole system in more clear way. Lastly, the implementation of this system will definitely provide more efficient, reliable, and accurate way to manage the student attendance data.
