 ABSTRACT

Automatic Timetable Generator is a software used to generate timetable

automatically. Currently, timetable is managed manually in our college. It will help to
manage all the periods automatically, without clashing the schedule of other teachers. It will
be helpful for faculty to get timetable in their phone. It will also manage timetable when any
teacher is absent, late coming or early going due to some personal reason. System reduces the
paper work as timetable is generated in automatic way. One would be able to add, modify or
delete data of Student, Staff or Teacher stored in a database as needed.

Listed are some benefits of this system:

- To generate time table automatically so that it’s save a lot of time, of the institute
administration

- Save's the time table for further schedule whenever administration wants

- Student can receive message notification

- It keeps record of all the students, teachers and staff in database. This project will print
time-table which is generated by the software.

Modules that we are planning to have in our system will be: Admin, Student, Staff/Teacher,
Message and Timetable.

between the teacher and student.
1.1 Background
The title of our project is automatic time table generator this project helps to generate the
schedule of teacher. This project also helps to sending notification to the student it contains a
huge database all the student in database get the message through e-mail by using this project
we can easily add, delete, or modify staff teachers and students. Whenever the client required
it’s stored the detail of student and staff. it’s stored the detail of student and staff .it also
generate daily time table or semester time-table.it keep the record of all the student teachers
and staff which present in database. The management of teacher is not a easy task will
teacher is absent. So, this project helps to fix the problem. These projects also print the time
table which is generated by software. This project reduces the time and effort of teacher or
staff it also reduces the paper.

understandable application which could automatically generate the schedule with in a
second.
 The purpose of the software is to make user interactive and friendly application
through which user easily interact.
 It will reduce the paper work also.
 These projects save the time administrator.
1.4 Scope
 The scope of the project is to create a time –table Management system which is use by
colleges but we are creating this software according to requirement of our college.
 The aim of the project is to fulfilled the basic requirement of the college like
maintaining staff maintain student as well as subject class more efficiently.
 As it is a desktop application it depends upon huge databases of staff, student, class,
subject, etc.
 The main scope of a project is that it is interactive and the administrator interact with
student by sending message notification.

1.6 Applicability
 The one of the most powerful application of this system it scheduled the plan
automatically by its own without clashing the schedule of other teachers.
 It generates the time table in such a way that the schedule of different class and
teacher should not collapse it should run properly.
 It sends email notification to the student regarding the holidays, exam at all other
staff.
 After completion of these system, we will gain the best knowledge on error handling
skill handling the data base, this project will enhance our skill more.
 The main goal of the project is to make the task of the teacher easier firstly they have
to do it manually but after the successful creation of this system it is to ease the effort
and time of the administrator.

 SYSTEM DESIGN
3.1 PROTOTYPING MODEL
The Prototyping Model is a systems development method (SDM) in which a prototype (an
early approximation of a final system or product) is built, tested, and then reworked as
necessary until an acceptable prototype is finally achieved from which the complete system
or product can now be developed. This model works best in scenarios where not all of the
project requirements are known in detail ahead of time. It is an iterative, trial-and-error
process that takes place between the developers and the users.

Figure 3.1
3.2 UML DIAGRAMS
UML stands for Unified Modelling Language. It is a rich language to model software
solutions, application structures, system behaviour and business processes

3.2.1 CLASS DIAGRAM

Class diagrams are the main building block of any object-oriented solution. It shows the
classes in a system, attributes, and operations of each class and the relationship between each
class.

Figure 3.2.1

In a class diagram, the classes are arranged in groups that share common characteristics. A
class diagram resembles a flowchart in which classes are portrayed as boxes, each box having
three rectangles inside. The top rectangle contains the name of the class; the middle rectangle
contains the attributes of the class; the lower rectangle contains the methods, also called
operations, of the class.
3.2.2 DATA FLOW DIAGRAM
A Data Flow Diagram (DFD) is a traditional visual representation of the information flows within a
system. It shows how data enters and leaves the system, what changes the information, and where data
is stored.

Figure 3.2.2
A data flow diagram (DFD) is the graphical representation of the "flow" of data through an
information system, modelling its process aspects. A DFD is often used as the preliminary
step to create an overview of the system without going into great detail, which can later be
elaborated.
It differs from a flowchart as it shows the flow instead of control flow of program. A data
flow diagram can also be used for the visualization and flow of data processing. A data flow
diagram shows what kind of data will be input to and output from the system, where the data
will come from and go to, and where the data will store. It does not show about the timing of
the processes, or information about whether processes will operate in sequence or in parallel.
With the help of Data Flow Diagram and it is become easy to understand the flow of data
through the system with the right data flow diagram software. A data flow diagram maps out
the flow of information for any process or system. It uses defined symbols like rectangles,
circles and arrows plus short text labels to dhow the data inputs, outputs, storage points and
the routes between them.
3.2.3 ENTITY RELATIONSHIP DIAGRAM

The entity is the way of “thing” or “object” in the real world that is distinguishable from all
set of objects. The entity set is the set of entities of the same type that share same properties,
or attributes. The entity is represented by a set of attributes. The relationship is an association
among several entities. The relationship set is a set of relationships of the same types. A
association between entity sets is referred to as participation’s-R diagram is a relationship
between two entity sets. E-R diagram will express the overall structure of a database
graphically. E-R diagrams are simple and clear.
 Symbols used:
E-R Diagram consists of the following major components.

 CONCLUSION & FUTURE WORK

4.1 Future Work

 The scope of the project is to create a time –table Management system which is use by
colleges but we are creating this software according to requirement of our college.
 The aim of the project is to fulfilled the basic requirement of the college like
maintaining staff maintain student as well as subject class more efficiently.
 As it is a desktop application it depends upon huge databases of staff, student, class,
subject, etc.
 The main scope of a project is that it is interactive the administrator is to interact with
student by sending message notification.

4.2 Conclusion

 The disparity between manual and automated scheduling is huge in a number of ways.
 we can easily create schedule of staff and student.
 To deal with the ever-demanding field service market, it is advisable to invest as early
as possible in a field service software that includes an automated scheduling solution
to keep your workers on board seamlessly and efficiently.
 Although it sounds too much investment for a start-up field service business, there is
no doubt that an automated field service scheduling solution is a long-term asset that
will enable your field technicians to do their jobs more efficiently, and exceed your
customer expectations faster and with higher quality.
