Recent trends in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) embrace several smartphone applications in a variety of educational and industrial domains in the last several years. This research focuses to solve one of the promising problems of an educational domain to take attendance smartly using the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system. Current attendance system in King Abdul-Aziz University (KAU) Saudi Arabia is partly solving the attendance problem. There are several problems in the existing attendance systems such as time-consuming, the chance of mistakes, truancy issues, no contact with parent/guardian and not efficient because of roll call as taking manual attendance. The proposed RFID based attendance system will provide robust, secure and automatic attendance. The proposed system will use modern technology and support to institutions and parents to deal with most of the problems of existing attendance systems. There are several other benefits of RFID based system such as web-based and mobile interfaces, daily absent report, an automatic SMS alert to parent/guardian, reduce administrative work, improve the ratio of attendance, economical and highly efficient. The case study method will be used as a research design. The proposed system is developed and tested in KAU Saudi Arabia. The proposed system will have both web and mobile interfaces. The web interface will need the Internet to access the proposed system and the mobile interface will use the Android platform for the testing scenarios. The user will access the system to generate customized reports to review the status of students for a particular course. It is anticipated that the proposed system will significantly improve students' monitoring mechanisms hence enabling both parents and teachers in making appropriate decisions.

Student presence in the classroom could be a very important issue so as to monitor student’s performance within the class compared to their studies. It turns into the main reason that the college management keeps up a standard that a student can just go to in the test if his/her participation is higher or equivalent to a few rates (70% to 80%). In the traditional attendance system, this can be the waste of time to note and marking every student's name in the attendance register. Hard copy of the marked register might get lost even. By using the latest updated android technology, a teacher can take attendance easily and can provide student's semester marks and student can able to see it with their unique Id. Using this technology, marked attendance will be saved in the phone yet as in server also and it checks and can be shared. With the stored information, can perform attendance percentage calculations and can remind by sending SMS to their guardian to stay them refresh regarding their kid’s attendance in the Institute. Technology’s in this application are Angular-6, ExpressJs, NodeJs and MongoDb.

Automated Information Systems has played a major role in the growth, advancement, and modernization of our daily work processes. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a safe and secure web based attendance monitoring system using Biometrics and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology based on multi-tier architecture, for both computers and smartphones. The system can maintain the attendance records of both students and teachers/staff members of an institution. The system can also detect the current location of the students, faculties, and other staff members anywhere within the domain of institution campus. With the help of android application one can receive live feeds of various campus activities, keep updated with the current topics in his/her enrolled courses as well as track his/her friends on a real time basis. An automated SMS service is facilitated in the system, which sends an SMS automatically to the parents in order to notify that their ward has successfully reached the college. Parents as well as student will be notified via e-mail, if the student is lagging behind in attendance. There is a functionality of automatic attendance performance graph in the system, which gives an idea of the student's consistency in attendance throughout the semester.
