Design and build expert system applications using forward chaining methods to manage web-based space management

Abstract

The presence of facilities and infrastructure to support educational activities in tertiary institutions is essential in order to discover the benefits of these facilities and infrastructure for college residents. In a university, space management entails planning, arranging, managing, and controlling the available space. Singaperbangsa University is one of the universities that offers a variety of facilities, including suitable classrooms, hall rooms for events requiring a big audience, and meeting rooms. However, the mechanism for booking conference rooms is still manual. This makes licensing more difficult since they must go back and forth to the division in charge of scheduling and the occurrence of competing schedules, which forces university authorities to repeat the conflicting schedule. The WEB-based Forward Chaining approach is used in this study. The forward chaining method was chosen because it is thought to be suited for space management, which is still done manually in the licensing of space use. Singaperbangsa University's present room loan service procedure is still in manual form, written on paper in a division in charge of documenting it. The recording must still come to the room, but it cannot be done in a more structured fashion to avoid a schedule that uses the room at the same time and in the same location. The data for this study was collected from January to December 2020. SDLC will be used to design the system. The Laravel programming language was used to create this system, while MySQL was used to create the database.
