| dc.description.abstract | Information technology industry is one of the fast growing sectors in the world making it more
vital. This is because it has simplified tasks being done and helped find solutions to a variety
of problems within different societies. Printing is an essential service in a setting like Makerere
University, this is because students on a daily basis do course works and other related activities
like reports, proposals among others, all these need to be always printed to be presented for
either marking or evaluation by their respective lecturers, however many students especially
the new entrants have faced a very big challenge in locating some of these printery service
centers. This is mostly because most printery stations have no clear names and directions to
easily locate them.
This report therefore presents a solution to this problem faced by many first time Makerere
University students when searching for printery services within the premises of the university.
To come up with this solution, we used qualitative methods such as interviews to collect data
from the printery station owners. Which we analyzed critically, and used the data along with
rapid application development methodology to implement our proposed solution. The proposed
solution was successfully implemented and the use of this application will heavily benefit the
students with easier navigation for printery services wherever they are within the university.
This report is divided into 6 chapters where the first contains the project introduction, the
second contains the literature review, the third contains the methodology, the fourth contains
the findings, system analysis and design details, the fifth contains the project implementation,
testing and validation and lastly, the sixth with the conclusions, recommendations and future
research. | en_US |
