ABSTRACT

Managing the student accommodation application process in Federal University of Technology is a complex and time-sensitive task. This particular project deals with the problems of allocating hostels to student in Federal University of Technology and to avoid the problems which occur when carried out manually.

The aim of this research is to produce a system that will automatically allocate rooms to students in a fair way, even if demand exceeds supply. Information for this research will be collected from two forms of data which are primary data and secondary data. This can be achieved by semi-structured interviews, unstructured discussion and exploitation of the services of the library from textbooks, journals, internet and other materials to garner a better understanding. The implementation technology will be J2EE. The likely result of this research will be hostel allocation software for Federal University of Technology.
