Design and Implementation of A Web-Based Hall Allocation System For Examination
ABSTRACT
Presently in today’s institution, there is a geometric rise in the number of students admitted with a ratio in the number for each department and level of study.
This variation in the number of students has posed a problem in allocating halls into consideration for examination. Based on this, there is so much need for a system that would alleviate such a problem.
The project work “Design and implementation of a web-based hall allocation system for examination” tends to allocate halls for examination by taking into consideration the availability of space to match the number of students in each department for each level.

INTRODUCTION
This present era has been termed to be an information age. An age where the demand for information dramatically increased. The computer has been the most useful thing for getting or accessing information nowadays.
The unending global and social change that we find ourselves in as a result of rapid transformation from the industrial age to an information age brought about the introduction of computers into the information industry.
This introduction (the use of computers) has rapidly affected all areas of life ranging from homes, industries and of course the educational system.
