Design and Development Meeting Schedule Management Application using the RAD Method

Scheduling meetings in an agency of government agencies are important. The problem that has existed so far is that recording a meeting schedule that still uses books and is prone to loss is one cause. Schedules that clash between parts or areas with limited space are also the cause. In this paper propose the development of a meeting scheduling system that can help overcome these problems. The main objectives of this work are twofold: 1) to assist in meeting scheduling, and 2) to minimize the risk of document loss. System development method used is the Rapid Application Development method, it chose which because it adapts from the waterfall model. An advantage of RAD is that it emphasizes a short software development cycle, uses a component-based construction approach and creates full functionality in 60-90 days. System analysis uses UML such as use case diagrams and activity diagrams. In this paper, an architectural design process and interface design are also carried out. We do implementation using the PHP, HTML 5, and JavaScript as a programming language with the MYSQL database. Based on the results of black box testing that has been done, it can be concluded that all functions can run well and as expected.
