SIGSv2: Enhanced Student ID Generator and Management System

Abstract

Electronic ID systems in educational institutions had advanced technologically and are used for integration to other information systems. To utilize this advantage, an automated generation and management of ID cards was developed. In its implementation, however, it was found out that the system lacked capabilities needed for a more effective process. So, an enhancement had carried out to improve the system’s capabilities. Data was gathered using interviews, process observations, and questionnaire. The respondents evaluated the acceptability of both old and the new systems in terms of efficiency, reliability, functionality, and usability based on ISO 9126 software metrics, and they agreed that the new system exhibited superior performance. Further, comparison results revealed that the new system significantly improved in terms of efficiency, functionality, reliability, but had not achieved significant improvement in usability, particularly, on the user interface. With the deployment of the enhanced system, a more robust solution in generating and managing identification card was achieved that led to a more efficient delivery of service.
