Abstract
The attendance management of the organization is an essential activity of their mundane life, has necessitated the need for revolutionary automatic attendance record-keeping and tracking systems. Paper surveys the emerging automated tools and applications which are popularly dominating this activity and fulfilling the requirement of accurate attendance marking systems. The technological era has gravitated more towards biometric attendance systems, but there are myriad other technologies that have been neglected thoroughly. The author identifies, extract, classify, and highlight all the evolving AMS (Attendance Management System) and have analyzed and compared their performances precisely and conscientiously. This survey identifies assorted AMS as biometric, NFC (Near Field Communication), RIFD (Radio Frequency Identification), Bluetooth, and cloud computing-based attendance systems. This article not only provides the literature review on the earlier work, but also provides an analytical report related to cloud-based AMS, discussions, and future recommendations.
Highlights
Right from the manual marking systems to the automatic biometric marked attendance portals, the attendance management systems have evolved significantly over the years
Attendance correlates with employee performance and it provides the relationship between student attendance and their academic performance
The author compared the results of the manual system and their proposed system on 80 users and the results show an accuracy rate of 94% besides this they compare the processing time of the manual attendance system with the proposed system result in 17.83 seconds for manual attendance system and 3.79 seconds for biometric attendance system
Summary
Right from the manual marking systems to the automatic biometric marked attendance portals, the attendance management systems have evolved significantly over the years. It uses eyes feature or retina scanning using the camera for their verification and authentication. User data is stored in the electronic device known as RIFD tag and to retrieve the stored data from the tag RFID readers are used In this technology students just have to scan their card in the reader, it automatically fetches all the information of the student and marks their attendance in the database.
