Abstract:
Administrators conventionally write information on paper or on a notice board to monitor subordinates’ activities within an organization. Unfortunately, the information cannot be stored and retrieved for future use. This paper presents a case study for the implementation of a smart notice board. The analysis focuses on the presence and transition of staff work activities. The staff activities are evaluated to allow administrators to be aware of their work status. Based on the smart office board design, we propose a context-aware monitoring model in a smart office environment. This model provides a platform to gather useful information of staffs during their working hours. Therefore, top-level administrators can identify staff status (present, absent or busy) and perform statistical analyses on staffs’ availability. Thus, they can plan, schedule, make decisions and prepare reports instantly.
