Automated System for Management of Examination Processes

Examination plays a vital role in any education system. It has been observed that most of the activities being managed in any examination cell or by any examination conducting authority are traditionally manually conducted activities. With the availability of computers and internet, it is time that the examination activities are automated. This will not only help in automation of the routinely conducted activities but also help in utilizing the manpower available for enhancing the processes and their skill sets. It will help in efficiently utilizing the resources available for conducting an examination in the organization. The paper focuses on the activities that can be effectively managed in the context of an Examination Cell. An automated system will benefit both students and exam cell coordinators to easily handle the manual processes involved. Automation of the various routine, manual and repetitive activities will help in optimal utilization of the infrastructural resources as well as manpower resources.
