A literature survey on digitizing the college administration ecosystem by developing single access point android mobile application

In the era of digitalization, we have witnessed a swift change from manual process of keeping and maintaining the records to doing the same using various technologies available, in a very easy and efficient manner, be it in the education or non-education sector. There have been individual systems available to manage and monitor various sub-systems in the academic sector (schools, colleges, universities) but today when we are moving towards creating a one-stop shop application accessible by every stakeholder of the respective system we couldn’t find any such application available; which in turn lead to the evolvement of a non-transparent, less effective and ambiguous academic administration system. Presently, the most common authentication scheme witnessed to confirm the identity of a person and uniquely defining ‘’who the person is?’’ is by using the biometric fingerprint scanning system. With the proposed system the student identity can be uniquely defined and also can be used in various administration processes thereby, enabling the college campus an e-campus with the purpose of making the student interaction with various services in the college, efficient, time-saving and transparent. This study explored the usage and applications of biometric fingerprint scanning system in integrating the services of the college ecosystem, to be availed by all the stakeholders at any point in time with a survey carried out in Delhi/NCR region of India.
