IMPROVING SECURITY IN MEETING ROOM BOOKING SYSTEM

Meeting Room Booking System is a web-based application system which is design to
simplify the tasks of secretaries and receptionists where they can record the meeting
room reservation online. This web-based application system also enables them to edit
and delete the application of the reservation. This system also leads them to improve
their task performance especially in doing the recording and reserving the meeting.
Thus by providing the security mechanism such as the use of password and use of
cookies, the administrator can made any administration tasks such as deleting, editing
and inserting without any interference from other users. Besides that, by using the
password, the system can identifY the access level of the user which has been assigned
by the system administmtor.
This system also aims to computerize meeting room reservation and an up-to-date
room reservation would be automatically maintained by the system. Besides that, with
additional features like online record searching and admin page to add he meeting
room database entry and valid user this system promises a better functionality, more
efficient utilization of resources and time saving especially to the secretaries and
receptionists.
In this project, the author also would like to study several topics such as creating
eiTectives web-based application and security issues in web-based application. For the
development of this system, the author has used the programming language that is
PHP, XHTML and PostgreSQL. The use of these tools has enabled me to team more
about it since these tools are very important for the web-based application. The author
has given a responsible to develop a Meeting Room Booking System that should
include the information of the room, location of the room, date and time available. The
method that the author applied for the development of this system is software
engineering method and waterfall model.
