“…The developed system showed no clashes in scheduling the duties for the faculties. The paper [2] specifies the two allocation algorithms Student Seating Allocation (SSA) and Supervision Duties Allocation (SDA). The SSA and SDA algorithms discussed in the paper is used to allocate the seating allotment and duties during an exam.…”

Maintaining the validity and fairness of exams in educational institutions depends on effectively arranging invigilation duties. This study examines different invigilation duty scheduling techniques and a new system developed to enhance the procedure. Due to the complexity of modern examination systems, more advanced and automatic scheduling methods must be used instead of the manual allocation used in traditional procedures. The study reviews known algorithms, from straightforward rule-based approaches to sophisticated optimization methods. After that, a developed system is shown which makes use of simple algorithm to decide on scheduling wisely. Using real-world data, the suggested method is assessed and contrasted with existing algorithms, indicating its ability to achieve efficiency, fairness, and invigilator satisfaction.

“…While the contributions of [1] and [26] have significantly contributed to the effective separation of seats for examinees taking similar subjects in examination halls, they did not address the allocation of supervision duties to invigilators. To rectify this, the authors in reference [27] put forth an application designed to automate both the examination seating arrangement and the allocation of invigilation duties. Despite the elegance of the applications proposed in [1], [26], and [27], it is worth noting that they lacked a crucial functionality, which is the ability for examinees to remotely access their assigned seat numbers.…”

This research presents a web-based application developed to address the issue of "Giraffing" during examinations. The application in addition to the automating the examination seating arrangement so as to ensure that students enrolled in the same courses are not seated next to each other during the examination, it also includes a messaging feature that sends text messages to the students a five minutes before the start of the examination. These messages serve as reminders and provide important instructions, such as the examination time, location, and any specific materials required. By proactively communicating with the students, the application aims to minimize instances of lateness and confusion, ensuring that students are well-prepared and informed before entering the examination hall. The application, built using Laravel and Vue.js, incorporates key modules to facilitate the management and execution of the seating arrangement process. The greedy graph colouring algorithm and connection matrix served as the underlying methods for generating optimal seating assignments, effectively minimizing proximity among students with shared course enrolments. The message feature was facilitated by Termii API. To evaluate the application's functionality, thorough testing was conducted within the university environment. A selected number of students participated in the testing phase, ensuring the application's effectiveness and performance in real-world scenarios. Notably, the application successfully fulfilled all requirements, including the generation of a graphical representation of the seating arrangement and the timely delivery of text messages to students. These messages provided students with essential examination details and other relevant information, sent precisely five minutes before their scheduled examinations.
