Abstract

Taking an attendance register for a meeting has traditionally been accomplished by means of a paper and pen. Technology provides opportunities to implement software systems to accomplish the same objectives. This paper presents an electronic register, Trackie, which was developed for Android devices. This software system can be used by lecturers to take an attendance register in their classrooms or it can be used in any meeting for that matter. This client-server solution where the server device, which is managed by a lecturer or administrator, for example, is used to manage all details of the attendees. Trackie Client which resides in the attendee’s device, can be used as a pen to sign the attendance register that is located on the server device. Trackie can be used independently or in conjunction with Trackie Client. Once the administrator has turned on the server, the attendee is able to sign in using his digital pen, Trackie Client. The attendee then gets automatically added into the attendance register in the administrator’s device, namely, Trackie. All attendees can sign in simultaneously, which saves time for signing an attendance register. If the attendee sign in successfully, Trackie Client will notify him, otherwise he will be notified that he is not registered.
