Design and Implementation of a Web-based Document Management System

By Samuel M. Alade

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijitcs.2023.02.04, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2023

One area that has seen rapid growth and differing perspectives from many developers in recent years is document management. This idea has advanced beyond some of the steps where developers have made it simple for anyone to access papers in a matter of seconds. It is impossible to overstate the importance of document management systems as a necessity in the workplace environment of an organization. Interviews, scenario creation using participants' and stakeholders' first-hand accounts, and examination of current procedures and structures were all used to collect data. The development approach followed a software development methodology called Object-Oriented Hypermedia Design Methodology. With the help of Unified Modeling Language (UML) tools, a web-based electronic document management system (WBEDMS) was created. Its database was created using MySQL, and the system was constructed using web technologies including XAMPP, HTML, and PHP Programming language. The results of the system evaluation showed a successful outcome. After using the system that was created, respondents' satisfaction with it was 96.60%. This shows that the document system was regarded as adequate and excellent enough to achieve or meet the specified requirement when users (secretaries and departmental personnel) used it. Result showed that the system developed yielded an accuracy of 95% and usability of 99.20%. The report came to the conclusion that a suggested electronic document management system would improve user happiness, boost productivity, and guarantee time and data efficiency. It follows that well-known document management systems undoubtedly assist in holding and managing a substantial portion of the knowledge assets, which include documents and other associated items, of Organizations.

Development of a Computational Model for Cassava Food Processing Using Coloured Petri Net

By Samuel M. Alade Olufemi D. Ninan

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2023.01.05, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2023

A food system is composed of a complex network of activities and processes for production, distribution, transportation and consumption, which interact with each other, thus leading to changeable behaviour. Most existing empirical studies on cassava processing have focused on the technical efficiency analysis of the cassava crop processing techniques among processors indicating that the modelling of the events and operations involved in the processing of the cassava crop is highly limited. In this context, different strategies have been used to solve difficult environmental and agro-informatic systems model-based problems such as system dynamics, agent based, rule-based knowledge and mathematical modeling. However, the structural comprehension and behavioral investigation of this modeling are constrained. In this regard, formal computational modeling is a method that enables modeling and simulation of the dynamical characteristics of these food systems to be examined. In this study, the system specification is designed using Unified Modelling language (UML) to show the structural process and system design modelled and simulated using Coloured Petri Net (CPN), a formal method for analyzing the behavioural properties of complex system because of its efficient analysis. For the purpose of observing and analyzing the behaviour of the cassava food process, a series of simulation runs was proposed.

Design and Implementation of an Improved Obstacle Avoidance Model for Land Mower

By Samuel M. Alade Adebayo S. Afonrinwo

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijitcs.2022.05.03, Pub. Date: 8 Oct. 2022

The paper presents the design, simulation and evaluation of an improved obstacle avoidance model for the lawnmower. Studies has shown that there has been few or no work done has on the total minimization of computational time in obstacle avoidances of land mower. Sample image data were collected through a digital camera of high resolution. The obstacle avoidance model was designed using the Unified Modelling Language tools to model the autonomous system from the higher-level perspective of the structural composition of the system. Automata theory was used to model two major components of the system, which are the conversion of the colour image to binary and the obstacle recognizer components by neural network. The model was simulated using the and evaluated using the false acceptance rate and false rejection rate as performance metrics. Results showed that the model obtained False Acceptance Rate and False Rejection Rate values of 0.075 and 0.05 respectively. In addition, the efficiency of the proposed algorithm used in the present work shows that the time taken to avoid obstacles was faster when compared with another existing model.
