Abstract
Student housing is adapting to meet the requirements of modern education. Safety has a significant impact on modern education in many different ways including physical well-being, emotional and psychological health, legal and ethical responsibilities and parental confidence. To keep student housing safe, ensuring the effectiveness of access control policies is vital. Student housing provides seat wise residence facilities to the students. Generally, students and allowed guests can enter and leave the student housing frequently. It often becomes difficult to keep track of each entry and exit manually. Therefore, unauthorized entry and exit can happen. This raises security concern. Several access control policies are currently being implemented. Biometric access control, smart card and video surveillance are some of them. A case study of access control policy using smart card is shown in our work. Our smart ID card-based housing system allows only valid person to enter the student housing, keeps track of each entry and exit and digitally manages seat allocation. RFID based card is used as smart ID card. Each student and guest who has permission to enter the student housing has the card. RFID reader reads the card to verify a student or a guest. Detail information of the student or guest is instantly visible to the security guard during entry or leaving the housing. Security guard can check the entry and exit history and assigned ID cards. Our system also gives student housing authority the convenience to manage and allocate seat digitally. Seat management includes creating and updating seat number, room number. Seat allocation includes assigning seat to the students, exchanging seat between students. Introducing our system to a student housing can increase its security by keeping tracks of all entries and exits and it can also help the housing authority to manage and allocate seat without any paperwork hassle.
