Cell module

The Cell Management Module within our prison management system serves as the central hub
for overseeing and controlling all facets related to individual prison cells. It's like a detailed map
that stores key information about each cell, including its location in the facility, how many
people it can hold, who's currently occupying it, and what amenities or facilities it offers. This
module plays a crucial role in efficiently assigning inmates to cells that match their security
needs and available space. It ensures that no cell gets overcrowded and that the right security
measures are in place. This module keeps a careful eye on maintenance tasks within each cell. If
something needs fixing a broken door, a leaky faucet it helps staff report these issues, assigns
tasks to the maintenance crew, and keeps tabs on the progress until everything's back in good
working order.
Additionally, in cases of emergencies within a cell, whether it's a fire alarm, a medical
emergency, or a security concern, this module is the go-to for quick reporting and organized
management of the situation. It records what happened, who responded, and what was done to
resolve the issue, ensuring that incidents are handled promptly and efficiently to maintain safety
and security within the prison walls.

User requirements Business rules

1. Cell Allocation and Management: 1. Cell Occupancy:

- Users should be able to assign inmates to
specific cells based on various criteria such as
security level, capacity, and availability.
- They should be able to view and update
the occupancy status of cells in real-time.
- A cell's capacity should not be exceeded,
and the system should prevent assigning more
inmates than the specified capacity.
- Only cells in an appropriate state (e.g., not
under maintenance) should be assigned to
house inmates.

2. Maintenance Tracking: 2. Maintenance Handling:

- Users need a system to report and track
maintenance tasks associated with cells.
- They should be able to assign maintenance
tasks to staff members and monitor their
progress
- Maintenance tasks should be addressed
promptly, and unresolved issues might restrict
cell usage.
- Only authorized personnel should be able
to assign, modify, or complete maintenance
tasks.
3. Emergency Incident Reporting:
- Users should have a mechanism to report
and record emergency incidents that occur
within cells.
- They need the ability to categorize
emergencies and track the response and
resolution.
4. Access Control and Security: - Users
should have role-based access to ensure
sensitive information is only accessible by
authorized personnel.
- The system should maintain an audit trail
to track user actions and modifications made
to cell data.
3. Emergency Response Protocol:
- Emergency incidents should be reported
immediately, triggering a predefined response
protocol.
- Information about emergency incidents
should be logged accurately for future
analysis and follow-up.
4. Data Integrity and Security: - Data should
be stored securely and backups maintained
regularly to prevent loss of critical
information.
- The system should enforce referential
integrity to ensure accurate relationships
between cells, maintenance, and emergencies.

Explanation: Cell modules has many entities but we took only the most useful ones which are:
CELL, MAINTENANCE and EMERGENCY.

Entity Relationships:

1. One-to-Many Relationship from CELL to MAINTENANCE:

 - Each CELL can have multiple MAINTENANCE records, but each MAINTENANCE record
is associated with only one CELL. This is a typical one-to-many relationship. We've represented
this by having a foreign key in the MAINTENANCE table that references the primary key of the
CELL table.

2. One-to-Many Relationship from CELL to EMERGENCY:

- Similar to the maintenance scenario, each CELL can have multiple EMERGENCY records,
but each EMERGENCY record is linked to only one CELL. Again, we have a foreign key in the
EMERGENCY table pointing to the primary key of the CELL table.

3. Many-to-One Relationship from MAINTENANCE and EMERGENCY to CELL:

- From the Cell's perspective, there is a many-to-one relationship with both MAINTENANCE
and EMERGENCY. Each MAINTENANCE or EMERGENCY record is associated with exactly
one CELL.
