ElectroLab: Electronic Laboratory System

Nowdays, technology is often looked for more efficient solutions to several challenges in our life. In universities 'managing the labs' information manually consumes a lot of the lab-user's time and effort. It is also hard to search for a lab in a timely manner or for one that has specific hardware (HW) and software (SW). Moreover, maintaining every lab and device is done randomly upon one's request, which is not regulated nor appointed. Users are frequently increasing and the procedure is getting more complicated and difficult to coordinate between them. So, This work aims to make an Electronic Laboratory (ElectroLab) System for laboratories in the College of Computer and Information Sciences (CCIS) at Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University (PNU), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Whereas the system provide different information required about each laboratory in interactive way. Using ElectroLab system all the paper work will be replaced and offer a set of key features that manages computer-related information which will prevent any deficiencies and waste of time. These key features include laboratories scheduling, reporting technical problems, control and overseeing labs equipment. Whereas, It provides different information required about each laboratory such as hardware, software, schedules, instructors. Presenting such information will help both the Information Technology (IT) Staff and faculty members in keeping track of computer laboratories and will help the management process.
