Automatic Exam Seating & Teacher Duty Allocation System

Examinations are the most crucial section of any educational system. They are intended to measure student's knowledge, skills and aptitude. At any institute, a great deal of manual effort is required to plan and arrange examination. It includes making seating arrangement for students as well as supervision duty chart for invigilators. Many institutes performs this task manually using excel sheets. This results in excessive wastage of time and manpower. Automating the entire system can help solve the stated problem efficiently saving a lot of time. This paper presents the automatic exam seating allocation. It works in two modules First as, Students Seating Arrangement (SSA) and second as, Supervision Duties Allocation (SDA). It assigns the classrooms and the duties to the teachers in any institution. An input-output data is obtained from the real system which is found out manually by the organizers who set up the seating arrangement and chalk out the supervision duties. The results obtained using the real system and these two models are compared. The application shows that the modules are highly efficient, low-cost, and can be widely used in various colleges and universities.
