Project 2

Arabic Brain Communicator (ABC) ABC is a brain-controlled typing system designed to

facilitate communication for people with severe motor

disabilities in Arabic.

Communication is an essential part of

human interaction. Unfortunately, for

people with severe motor disabilities,

such as Amyotrophic Lateral

Sclerosis (ALS) and spinal cord injury, the

ability to communicate independently is restricted; as current

Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)

technologies require some form of muscle control. This project

aims to facilitate communication in Arabic for people with

severe motor disabilities by building a Brain-Computer Interface

(BCI) application using the Emotiv neuroheadset, to provide

mind-controlled typing and picture based communication.

The headset collects EEG signals from 14 channels on the

surface of the scalp. Unlike medical EEG systems, the Emotiv

neuroheadset is affordable and easy to use. The system will use

the P300 component, an involuntary response to sensory

stimuli, to detect the actions to be performed by the user. The

system offers three main interfaces: key and picture boards,

which would be optimized for faster and more accurate typing.

Configuration of those is incorporated for the use of caregivers.

The originality of this project lies in the use of novel input

method, brain activity, and the creation of a complete Arabic

AAC system. Hence, providing a practical communication

method for Arabic speaking individuals with motor disabilities

by allowing them to type or convey a message by thinking, as it

does not require the movement of any muscle. To the best of

our knowledge, no Arabic BCI applications currently exist.

Research conducted in this project provides valuable insights for

the design of future BCI applications, and will help bridge the

gap in Arabic AAC technologies.

Albateel An Intelligent Tutoring System for Improving Linguistic Skills

for Arabic Language Learners.

“Albateel” is an Intelligent Tutoring

System that aims to improve students’

Arabic linguistic skills by taking each

student’s individual needs into

consideration to produce efficient

learners in the classroom through the use

of adaptive learning technologies, namely the Micro-adaptive

approach. Differences between students’ learning levels present

one of the most important challenges that face teachers in the

classroom, this becomes especially difficult when a student has

a learning difficulty (e.g. dyslexia). Our project intends to fill

this gap by helping elementary students of the fourth, fifth and

sixth level in learning Arabic linguistic skills in a simple and fun

way, using stories, exercises and games. This tool is based on

educational theories of cognition and learning which we

gathered from a special education expert. The motivation

behind it is to allow electronic education to incorporate the

value of the interactivity afforded to a student by an actual

human teacher. We are still in the testing phase on Albateel, we

hope to test it out in three different schools in Riyadh. After the

testing phase, our experts will analyze the results, and provide

us with feedback on any system problems, and we will then fix

them accordingly in order to publish it in Apple’s App Store.

Hotel website creation, management

and reservation system

Numerous hotels abandon the prospect of creating

and maintaining a website because of the cost

involved in hiring a developer to create the site

followed by significant expenditures associated

with maintaining the web site and constantly

updating it to keep pace with new technology.

However, such hotels suffer a substantial loss in business since

nowadays people prefer to search on the internet for hotels and rely

on their websites to obtain detailed information about location,

amenities, room availability and prices. Potential customers are also

more comfortable in making, modifying and cancelling room

reservations online rather than by directly calling the hotel

management.

Our product will help hotel managers and customers. Our product will

enable a hotel to avoid the cost of hiring a developer yet not deprive

it of the benefits of having its own website, we are developing a

software package that allows the hotel management to create and

maintain their own website. The use of this package requires nothing

more than the most basic computer skills. The hotel can purchase a

following some simple installation instructions provided in a user

manual which will accompany the package. The software will provide

the following functionalities:

Posting and editing of general hotel information (location, nearby attractions, contact information, amenities, pictures, etc.).

Posting and editing of room information, including uploading of pictures and listing of prices.

Allowing viewers to check on room availability and prices.

Allowing viewers to make reservations and emailing them confirmations.

Allowing customers to modify or cancel reservations and emailing them confirmations.

Emailing alerts to hotel management about new reservations or changes/cancellations of existing reservations.

Allowing hotel management to make, modify and cancel reservations.

Allowing viewers to subscribe to/unsubscribe from a hotel listserv.

Allowing hotel staff to send emails about hotel events, special deals, etc., to subscribed users.

iReal Estate iPhone application provides available estates in

Riyadh and their information on an offline map

Finding houses and departments

that match people needs and

preferences is one of the common

problems. Many tenants and buyers

usually spend many hours crossing

around looking for homes which often doesn't match their

needs.

Based on that, we started this project with the goal to dedicate

our knowledge in technology to help them in finding their

preferred home since there are not much advanced applications

that provide effective search service.

Our project is to develop iphone application to facilitate homes

searching to help them save time and effort by providing a list of

available estates in Riyadh on an offline map ! Besides, estates

information like: estate owner, price, photos, ...etc.

In Addition, the application will help them to keep track of new

estates that match their needs by notifications. Moreover, the

application will participate in search task by notifying them if

they are near to estates that match their needs.

In Addition, the application allows them to save and share

estates. And for owners, the application allows them to manage

their estates.

To achieve this we are using PHP and Objective-C programming

languages and other web technologies.

We hope that this application make a change in real estates’

environment and best serves buyers and owners in easy,

intelligent way.

ABG Test Analysis An intelligent medical mobile application

The idea of this project based on the

establishment of an application for the

interpretation of the arterial blood gases

(ABG), which is a test that measures the

acidity of blood (pH), oxygen partial pressure

(PaO2), and carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2) in the

blood extracted from an arterial blood vessel. It is used to

evaluate a patient’s respiratory system, metabolic functions,

and blood acidity.

The problem that comes with ABG test is how to interpret the

test results, inexperienced doctors in critical care often find it

very difficult to interpret the results because the interpretation

process can be complicated and the decision that needs to be

done regarding the patient is very critical. Moreover, based on

the test results doctors at the ICU or the ER often need to

perform some calculations in order to give the patient the

proper amount of medication, performing such calculations

manually can degrade efficiency.

To meet these needs we implemented an ABG application which

is a mobile application running on iOS, specifically on an iPhone

device for the complete analysis for the ABG test which can help

the medical personnel not only to find the accurate

interpretation, but also to perform related calculations which

will increase accessibility and efficiency, where all they need to

do is only to input the gas values taken from the machine

measuring the blood gases and the result will appear in

minimum time possible.

Real-time Fire Detection System

Fires are known for their fast growth and its capability of

causing many deaths and economic losses annually around the

world. For these reasons, it was important to develop systems

that are capable of alarming when fires start to keep it under

control. However, most of the common fire detection systems

depend on smoke sensors primarily, and as smoke sensors are

restricted to the existence of a ceiling or a wall it is not capable

of detecting fires in open large areas, like public gardens and

parking areas. Therefore, according to the prior stated facts; this

project was started with the aim of implementing a more

efficient and trustworthy fire detecting system.

The proposed system will be using computer vision through

studying the fire’s colour, shape, and motion in the detection

stage. In details, the system work will start by continuously

acquiring images from a web camera. Then, the image

processing algorithm used in this system will subtract the

motion area from the background from each adjacent frame

“image” and then start searching for the fire properties (colour,

shape, and motion) on the resulted area. After that, if the

system detected a fire, the notification system will start by

immediately sending SMS and Email messages to the previously

registered contacts, who are supposed to be the place owners

or the security staff of the area, to warn them to take an action

before the growth of that detected fire.

In conclusion, this system is expected to provide more safety

and to reduce the losses caused by fires in public open places.

Wedding Planner

Naturally, human are known as

forgettable, and not easy to remember

their daily task even if they don’t suffer

from any pressure. So, how is for

brides with a lot of pressure, and with

no experience. Therefore, we start to

look and search which functionality

that would help the brides to take

some of the pressure of their shoulders by managing bride’s time and

budget.

The goal is to build a mobile application that helps the girl who

will get married in organizing every aspect of her wedding; especially

if she doesn’t have enough time like if she student or an employee, or

enough experience by providing some functions that result in saving

time , saving effort for thru looking for her wedding fixtures.

Therefore, the application will provide many useful functions like

an optional reminder for their tasks and their important

appointments. A to-do-check list is provided in the application to

enable the bride to manage her tasks and remember them easily by

checked it once it complete. It provides a guest list to give the bride

categories to make it easy for the bride to know which are the fixtures

she needs and provide many choices for her. It will also help her

manage her budget by comparing the actual budget with the

calculated one from the tasks, once it exceed the limit an alert

message appear to warn her that she exceeds the limit, which is

helpful especially for her thought to be organized base on her

limitation

At the end a reliable mobile application that brides can relayed on

to manage their budget, saving their time and effort will be produce.

It will be easy to get and easy to use, their audience will be from

different ages and it will cover their needs based on it data that cover

most popular stores in Riyadh city in different regions, experience

Masar Pilgrims Health Care Tracking System

In 2012, the total number of pilgrims reached around 3 million. During the Hajj period, pilgrims tend to visit several holy places at

certain times for a short period of time. This means, for those who require medical care during this period, treatment might be delivered to them by multiple healthcare providers at distributed healthcare organizations.

Masar is a web-based application that helps improve the provision of pilgrims' medical care during Hajj. It automates the treatment flow, task assignment, and highlights any conflict. In terms of information provision, the system shows the medical history, treatment progress, medications, and involved users. In addition, the workflow system constructs an independent layer that connects the distributed infirmaries systems and databases so that the different health organizations, in the areas where the Hajj is being held, could keep up with the patient’s progress from one visit to another.

In terms of implementation of this project, Skelta Business Process Manager (BPM) tool was used, which is based on Workflow technology. Skelta BPM provides a process designer

to model the treatment guidelines in which a generic treatment flow was modeled. This logic was then automatically maintained and represented in a web application. The interface throughout the treatment flow was designed and customized according to meet different users’ needs as they interact with the patient. These interact with a database created to store patients’ clinical information. The intended users of this system are the healthcare providers (i.e. Doctors and Nurses), Receptionists, and Administrators. With this interface, healthcare providers are able to easily register, store, and retrieve pilgrims' clinical information.

Masar is currently under development and the results so far are very promising. This project aims to extend the functionalities of the Hajj system used by the MoH to better serve pilgrims during Hajj.

IT Practical Training System

Practical training is important for IT students to practice what they have been studied, and improve their skills. Because of this, Information Technology

Department in King Saud University plans to provide the practical training course as a part of its curriculum and have agreements with many organizations to train students. However, practical training was recently implemented at the department, and the process of the application done manually, which makes a lot of difficulties and obstacles for both students and staffs who work on organizing the process.

In the second semester the department announces the names of the organizations that provide training to the students. The student can choose from these organizations or she can contact any other organization. After she writes her wish list, she should be involved in a long paper based process to apply in the training course and she has to contact training committee to finalize their registration. The committee member collects and evaluates a lot of papers and forms; also they should have an easy access to students’ data to follow up with them during the training time. However, in the ordinary websites the submission problem only can be solved.

The department decided to perform this process using an available online system, unfortunately all systems are dedicated to individual companies which they do not match IT department requirements.

From these obstacles, the idea of this project came, to make the application process in the practical training easier. The aim of our project is to develop a Web-based practical training system to handle all the processes starting from students’ application to assigning each student to an organization by the staff member. The system serves four types of users: the head of practical training, the committee members, secretaries and students. We reached the aim through several objectives:

- Make the registration online: The students can apply for the training online by uploading, editing all required information and documents, and submitting her wish list without any other papers or documents.

- Make the communication easy: For the students easily to know about the important announcements and comments about organizations. For the committee members, saving time and effort by organizing events schedules and posting automatic announcements on the site, which linked with a twitter account. Also, making the communication between faculty members simpler by sending emails and arranging for meetings.

- Make the management of practical training easier and efficient: Submitting all requests online and having an automatic process for accepting and rejecting requests. Moreover, the organizations’ information can be added and edited online. At the end of the training, having statistics about the training process.

RFID based Student's Attendance

Monitoring System

Students’ attendance has been a university

requirement for many decades because most of

the learning process happens in class; listening

to the lecture, doing reading assignments, etc.

However, the availability of lessons online for

most courses makes students less motivated to

attend lectures, which badly affects their

academic performance. Therefore, monitoring students’ attendance is

crucial in supporting students’ retention and performance.

In the Information Technology (IT) female department at King Saud

University (KSU), the manual procedure to take students’ attendance

is performed either by calling students by name and marking their

presence on the attendance sheet, or by passing the students’

attendance sheet to sign it. Unfortunately, these methods are often

time-consuming, error-prone (the former), and subject to cheating

(the latter). Also, the loss of the attendance sheet may yield to

inaccurate data, and nonregular students may have the chance to

avoid punishments (e.g. being banned to attend the final exam).

Furthermore, analyzing manually students’ attendance sheets by the

instructor to determine cases of students who exceeded the allowed

percentage of absence and report them to the administration can be

time-consuming and error-prone.

Therefore, we propose to develop a web-based application, called

RFID-SAMS (RFID based Students’ Attendance Monitoring System)

that will automatically record and manage students’ attendance in the

IT department at KSU. RFIDSAMS will use Radio Frequency

Identification technology that uses radio frequency electromagnetic

fields for the purposes of automatic identification and tracking. The

technology is made of three main components: RFID tag, RFID reader,

and antenna Each student will be assigned a RFID tag. Classrooms will

be equipped with RFID readers. When the instructor wants to take the

attendance, she activates the RFID reader and asks students to place

their tags near the reader. The reader will automatically retrieve the

data from the tags then send the data to a central database in a

remote server, over the Internet, and then the students’ attendance

status will be updated. The database will be connected to the website,

which keeps record of the students’ attendance in all classes in

addition to other functions.

Attentive I Eye-Gaze Interactive Therapy of Attention Deficit

Disorders

Individuals with ADHD can be easily distracted,

have memory problems and difficulty

maintaining their focus on one task. As far as

the neurobiologists have reached, there is no

cure for this disorder; however, it could be

managed1. Treatment of this disorder often

contains a combination of medicine and behavioral treatment.

Psychological treatment is recommended to avoid the side effects of

the medicines. Recent advances in interactive technologies have led

to innovative approaches in the design of serious games that focus on

behavioral therapy of people with ADHD.

This project aims to support behavioral therapy with novel interactive

gaze-based serious games that provide specialists with eye gaze

measures such as intensity of gaze and patterns of visual attention.

These metrics benefit the therapy process by providing insights into

the progress of the child and quantitative measures of visual

attention.

The ‘Attentive Eye’ game suite was designed in iterative cycles of

design and evaluation that determined the final set of games for

inclusion in the software to improve focus, filter out distractions,

sustain attention, develop memory skills, and finish tasks. It was done

in collaboration with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and involved

experimental reviews of the feasibility of using gaze as an interaction

approach. Tobii X120 was used to capture the eye gaze of the users. It

incorporates illumination, sensors and 3D modeling of the eyes to

track eye movements and process gaze using the pupil center corneal

reflection technology. The captured raw gaze data was processed and

filtered to be used as game control. Figure 1 briefly demonstrates the

system.

The 'Attentive Eye' game suite is a

novel contribution to the assistive

technology research domain. For

rehabilitation practitioners, it is

amongst the few systems that use

eye gaze to control games intended

for the therapy of individuals with

ADHD. Moreover, the mode of

interaction with visual attention

enriches the games' potential to

provide an engaging behavioral

therapy program for the users and

quantitative measures of progress

and accurate tracking for health care providers and practitioners.

Smart Travel Planner Eye-Gaze Interactive Therapy of Attention Deficit

Disorders

The increasing trend towards globalization is

motivating more and more people to travel and

inspiring them to visit multiple places in each

trip. Consequently, organizing one’s journey has

become a considerably complex and time-

consuming process requiring one to choose

among several transportation options, places to

visit and hotels to stay in. Furthermore, one has to factor in meal

breaks and calculate routes with the least travel durations in order to

make the most efficient use of the limited time available.

The system is a mashup of the following APIs: Google Maps, Google

Places, Expedia and Wikipedia. SOAP web services and javascript have

been utilized to retrieve data from the Expedia API and the other APIs

respectively. Route calculation is based on Dijkstra's algorithm.

Unlike other similar applications which essentially work as calendaring

programs, our system is unique in that it integrates the information

and functions needed for travel planning within a single application

and provides additional functionality by taking into account the users’

preferences, blocked times and conflict resolution. Moreover, the

Smart Hajj System

The Hajj is one of the pillars of Islam and is considered one of the largest and greatest annual gatherings in the world. . Muslims from all over the world gather in the Holy city of Mecca for pilgrimage (Hajj). Due to this mass

gathering the hajj organizers and the health sector as well may face many problems. Our graduation project describes a technology a solution designed to overcome the problems and to ease the hajj journey for the pilgrims and all the entities that deals and communicate with them in a daily bases.

The system is called, Smart Hajj and is designed by utilizing the Smart Card technology available today via developing a smart card based system, where the smart card represents an essential element and stores pilgrims’ permits and medical record to reduce fraud, minimize time wasting and ensure data portability, along with developing a second smart card that contains the physician's information to insure the authenticity, and to prevent tampering with pilgrim’s medical information.

The Smart Hajj System (SHS) provides a technology solution aimed to decrease the previously mentioned Hajj problems. The system is composed of three main components:

Sugar Counter Application

According to International Diabetes Federation, up to 366 million people have diabetes. Saudi Arabia, United Arab of Emirate and Kuwait are among the top ten of highest prevalence and without effective prevention and control programs, diabetes is likely to continue to increase globally.[1]

There are two types of diabetes; type one and type two. Type one develops when the body is unable to produce any insulin. Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body is able to produce insulin, but not enough for it to function properly, or when the cells in the body do not react to insulin.

Standard care of diabetic patient consists of regular visits with their diabetes care physician, adherence to a special diet, and medication. For many diabetics, managing their diabetes is not only a confusing process, but also time consuming and overwhelming. Diabetic patients need to inject insulin few times a day by using insulin pumps or insulin pens, they have to calculate the amount of injected insulin according to their food intake and moreover doses should be adjusted according to pre-meal sugar.

Motivated by the diabetes epidemics in Saudi Arabia and the above-mentioned problems, the idea of Sugar Counter Application (SCA) was raised. The purpose of SCA is to develop an efficient mobile

Trie AMD A Trie-based Apriori Motif Discovery Approach

Motif discovery is the problem of finding recurring patterns in biological sequences. Finding such patterns, also called motifs, gives an indication of important functional roles for our body which is also our

DNA sequence. This is one of the most interesting and long-standing problems in Bioinformatics.

TrieAMDT is a web-based application with a user-friendly interface; the user can upload input sequences in different formats. He can write sequences directly in a text box, upload his own file, or gain access to GenBank files through a system repository database that will be updated by the system administrator periodically. The system supports different input formats (e.g., FASTA). Discovered motifs are represented in a graphical format for an easier visualization for the results. The tool gives the user the flexibility to store and print the discovered motifs along with some statistical results, or even send the results as a report by e-mail so that he doesn't have to wait for the results.

The tool allows the user to adjust system parameters (e.g., minimum support, error rate, and maximum widow size for the discovered motifs). Finally, the system administrator can update the database repository and user information and can keep track of log files..

The tool should help biologists and scientists to use the developed TrieAMD approach in order to discover sequential motifs in biological data. According to the published results, the new approach has a better accuracy performance than other approaches for discovering sequential motifs in real data sets.

Smart Speaker An Arabic Augmentative and Alternative

Communication System for Adults with Speech

Impairments and Normal Cognitive Abilities

The Smart Speaker is an Arabic intelligent speech-synthesized hand-held Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) application for Apple’s iPad and iOS platform. It helps Arabic native speakers who have speech impairment with normal cognitive abilities in their functional speaking needs by converting their Arabic typed texts to voice.

The main objective of Smart Speaker is to model a human performance in speech learning and generation, and increase the speed of keystroke to emulate the speed of oral speech by using various techniques. Furthermore, Smart speaker avoids the requirement for a special AAC device and allows direct downloading from App stores with low cost.

Smart Speaker is classified as an intelligent application since it predicts typed words and sentences based on the user’s previous behavior, adapts its prediction to the user’s different locations, and auto complete user words and phrases automatically. Smart Speaker introduces other techniques as well to increase the speed of keystroke in order to emulate the speed of oral speech. These techniques are: a short-cut option, listing recently used messages and categorizing phrases. The results indicate that the role of intelligence components in AAC should not be underestimated.

KSU-Connect Soft-Phone for Internal Calls within the IT Department

KSU-Connect is a software program for making telephone calls over the Internet using a general purpose computer, rather than using dedicated phones, landlines and numbers. Our proposed system is designed to behave like a traditional telephone and the aim was to develop it using open source to replace the old fashioned communication

system currently in use. To implement the system, an open-source Softphone system was customized and its functionalities were extended to meet the user needs. The system performs all the basic synchronous telephony functions in addition to some asynchronous functionality such as the ability to send text messages, share files, and start conference calls. The staff and faculty members found the system very useful and suggested additional features, such as linking the system to their own calendar to receive calls and adjusting their status according to their schedule. Moreover, they requested a directory classified into categories according to their employment positions and pre-assigned extension numbers to each for easier searches as well as calls.

Effects of Recording Factors in EEG

Based Authentication Systems

Biometric authentication is an evolving field in computer science that has been introduced a few decades ago, where new technologies and techniques overcome the withdrawals of their predecessors. Recently researchers discovered a new unique biometric feature called electroencephalography (EEG), which is the brain electric activity along the scalp [1].

Various studies such as Hema C.R , Paulraj M.P and Harkirenjit Kaur ‘s study *2+ and HU Jian-feng ‘s study *3+had evaluated this new technique and its eligibility for authentication using various feature extracting methods. These studies showed a great potential of using EEG as standard authentication methodology. However, the permanence of such biometric is still debatable, whether EEG signals are affected by an individual’s emotions, his\her mental health, or the surrounding environment.

In our study we investigate whether emotional change (scare or disgust) would affect the value and strength of EEG signal, and thus alter the accuracy level of such method. In this experiment we recruited 15 participants and conducted two sessions for each, in which the first session was to record the baseline of EEG using Emotive EEG headset [4] under normal conditions, where each participant was asked to imagine pushing a cube. In the second session the participant watched a 2-minute scene of a horror movie, and then the actions performed in session one were repeated.

Plagiarism and IT students in King

Saud University

One of the serious cases and ethical issues in the academic field is doing plagiarism. Plagiarism happens when an

impersonator represents others’ work as his/her own work without citing the source[1] .From other perspective, plagiarism can be defined as submitting other work (part of or all) without any acknowledgement to the works’ authorship*3+. In academic filed, many reasons lead students to commit plagiarism, for instance, the lack of student’s awareness about university’s plagiarism rules and regulations [2]. There are a lot of ways within an academic context to do plagiarism such as using the web contents in copying and pasting, or from books, journals, other student work, and course textbook [4].So, in this paper we want to promote the awareness of plagiarism law adopted at King Saud University in department of IT. This work addresses reasons that motivate students to commit plagiarism, and provides suggestions to solve this academic problem that can help KSU’s students and faculties in many cases. To accomplish that, we distributed two surveys: one for students and other for teachers. Students’ survey focuses on course assessment tools that are subject to plagiarism likes (number of sheets and projects that has been plagiarize) and reasons behind doing that with suggestions provided to avoid plagiarism in each material. The plagiarism types that covered are: make copy from other

The impact of the colors used in

educational multimedia for children

It is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the effect of colors have been used in the educational multimedia. Many studies have shown that the effects of color on mood, health and way of thinking, that preference

for a certain color to another lies in the mechanism of its effect on human emotions and feelings. These studies have revealed that the human eyes absorbs light and transforms it into another form of energy being able to see the color, and this energy affects even blind people and their feelings. The colors is a knowledge by itself and the psychologists researchers have shown the effects of colors and they conducted a several studies which have proved their effectiveness and their impact on the human mind especially children. The child can see the color since the day he was born, with the progress of its growth, his eyes will be used to receive huge amounts of information about the world around him.

Due to the correlation of colors in a child's life and their effects on the child's mind and feelings, as reported in the previous studies by psychologist’s researches, the colors may have a positive impact on child absorb information and may be

To discuss this effect we conducted a pilot experiment for 10 children from 5 to 6 years old, to measure the reception of information under the effect of different groups of colors. This experiment consists of three tests, in each test we will show education multimedia designed from this group of colors: warm colors, cool colors and neutral colors "black and white". We will show in education multimedia different groups of different numbers appear on the screen for one minute then close the screen. After that we will ask the children about that numbers, to measure the percentage of remember the numbers that shown. In each test we change the order of color screen to get the good pilot experiment.

The effect of the applications on

studying and memorizing the Holy

Quran for children

Recitation and memorization of the Holy Quran is very important in each Muslim's life. Children need to prepare themselves to recite the Quran in a correct way for the five times prayer every day. Unfortunately, many children feel bored when they recite and memorize the Quran in the traditional way of the manual method. For that reason the technology came up with many applications that support the way of learning and memorizing the Holy Quran to motivate the children to be creative in the recitation.

Based on this, a comparison test applied on two groups of children aged between 3 to 7 years old. The first group has been taught using the traditional way and the other group taught by explaining the story of the Surah using the pictures then studying the verses and memorizing them.

After applying this experiment, it was found that the amount of memorizing has increased where the children have memorized 6 Verses instead of 3. Also, they understood the meaning of

each Verse by linking it with the story. In addition, the number of mistakes in the memorization has been reduced.

Using technology and the new techniques in teaching the Quran provide an exciting environment for the children especially that enable them to recite and memorize the Quran depending on their selves. Moreover, the children will understand the verses in an attractive way by linking the story of the Surah with pictures that reflect the meaning.

Warehouse control for Dunkin Donuts

Dunkin Donuts central warehouse supports all stores in Riyadh, which makes several tasks such as receiving and keeping track of items from the warehouses to branches harder. Right now, Warehouses’

controllers record manually all stored items. Store managers have to be notified when ordered items from the warehouse are ready by keeping phones close. These traditional techniques affect the efficiency of the work by causing computing errors and delay in submitting and delivering orders to and from the warehouses and stores. For these reasons, we concluded that Dunkin Donut needs more efficient system in handling these processes.

The goal of this project is to produce a web-based system that facilitate the communication between a Dunkin Donuts store managers and the warehouse controller. Implement a database to keep records of all items needed to make it easy to the warehouse controller to follow up incoming and out coming items. Help to decrease suffering from wasting time on counting and observing items coming in and out from the warehouse.

DD Online Warehouse System

Dunkin Donuts Online Warehouse System replaces the manual warehouse management system with a web-

based system. The system will help stores’ managers and the warehouse controller to manage their procedures in an effective and efficient way.

This system allows the store managers to log in to their accounts to orders items from warehouse controller.

As for the controller of the warehouse the web-based system provides him the ability to fully manage the work in an automated manner. Thus, the system offers proper functions to respond to the requests from the mangers. Also, provide many facilities to perform his usual tasks such as adding new items, updating items quantities, ordering shipment, viewing reports and printing them.

Summer Training Providing KSU Students the ability to register and apply

for a summer training location provided by the

university online

The Department of Information Technology offers students a

Summer Training Program in order to achieve the department’s

mission of providing high quality education through the

combination of theory, practice, and real-world experience.

Instead of filling out application forms manually it can be done

at home online. This will provide convenience for students and

the summer training program staff.

Our web based system will provide a system with high quality

performance that will do processes and management of the

summer training program in an easy, fast and effective way. It

provides services to two different types of users students and

Administrator. This project gives the student the ability to

register in the system and in both circumstances

(accepted/rejected) the system sends automatically an email

informing the student of the results. For security we have

encrypted the password before being saved in the database.

Other functions provided for the student is login, logout, apply,

register, view student profile, update student profile and view

announcement. As for the administrator, the project provides

many services for the administrator. The administrator has her

own control panel where she can post announcement, add

training locations and update Student list using a search engine.

In addition, the administrator can upload xml file that contains

names of new student to add it directly to the systems database

without the need to insert row by row.

The outcome of this project was that we were able to implement all required functions successfully and in a sophisticated way. In conclusion, this website should be an asset to students and faculty members responsible for summer training by organizing the procedure of applying and registering. Also, maintaining information about the students who applied for the program for future use (e.g. seeing what locations that students prefer, if the IT department needs to increase/ decrease the number of chairs etc.). Even though all main functions work properly we as a group are still working on it to make it better.

Train to Gain System Providing KSU Students the ability to register and apply

for a summer training location provided by the

university online

One of the new courses in the IT department is summer

training. Summer training is a course that helps the students to

apply their knowledge and skills which they learned in a real-life

and in team working.

However, this course has some difficulties and conditions; for

instance, in this course the student must follow steps to take

the admission of the department. There are terms before and

after registering, forms which submitted manually, contestants’

qualifications must be compared to choose the best and so on.

All these terms require a lot of files, student's congestions too.

As a result, we asked ourselves why not we build a web-

based system that will help managing the summer training

processes between the IT department and the student.

Therefore, this system is expected to make Student

registration easier by automated checking if the summer

training course preconditions are met or not. Also, it will create

students to apply for training location provided by IT

department. Also, Train to Gain System will be able to give the

administrator some privileges like updating the students list,

the registered students.

In conclusion, all these services will be provided in

convenient ways to make all the summer training consequences

faster and easier.

Summer Training Summer training registration system

Our aim from this project is to simplify the process of applying

for summer training in King Saud University. All applying steps

and applications processing and management are done through

website. A web-based system will reduce time and effort spent

when doing these processes manually. The system provides

services to students as well as to the IT-department.

Students will first need to register in the system. If a student

has finished the summer training course pre-requisites she will

receive an activation email. Students log in to their home page;

Announcements, Update profile, and Apply for summer training

are the options provided. In case student has already applied

and got accepted at an organization it will be displayed clearly in

her home page, thus student can find out more information

about it. The system allows students to get to choose their

dedicated organization and apply; acceptance or rejection is

done through the system, which would save most of time

wasted in previous traditional methods.

An administrator who will represent the IT-department can

perform several tasks to manage the system and students’

applications. Student information and organizations can be

added, edited or deleted. To facilitate these operations a search

engine is provided with flexible search options.

Since students’ applications’ approval or rejection are done

through the system without the department interference, it’s a

possibility that a student may upload invalid document (i.e.

English certificate). To overcome this problem our project

provides the administrator with extra service, admin can reject

student request and allowing her to apply again; that’s by

choosing from a set of predefined problems or specifying other

reason, student is informed through her email.

In conclusion, the project provides a big approach in the

university both students and the department staff will benefit

from it. It gathers all application services at one place!

Uncle Nabeel’s Bakery

Technology has its enormous impact in the academic sector and the teaching field in particular. However, most of whom get those technological benefits are university students and above with higher educational levels. Therefore, lack of educational

applications for younger populations exist nowadays, which provoked us to develop Uncle Nabeel’s bakery as a windows based desktop application targeted for elementary students to help them understand the concept of fraction numbers and how to deal with them. This application was designed to facilitate the process of learning Fractions and their Operations in an enjoyable bakery environment for “normal” elementary students within the age of eleven to twelve years old, with background knowledge in using computer. Moreover, students are supposed to have significant mathematical skills. Uncle abeel’s bakery was developed using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

Sammar and Abood World

Due to the difficulty of learning Mathematics for some children, our project "Sammar and Abood world" aims to design and develop Arabic educational desktop application for children between 5 to 10 years old to improve their skills in

Mathematics. The application makes the learning process more fun and exciting by adding visual effects such as sounds, avatars and colorful backgrounds. Also, it is provide short and simple statements that motivate the children to continue learning depending on their selves. Furthermore, the application is considering User experience and applying HCI rules to enhance the interactive learning. The application can be used at home or in the classrooms under the supervision of an adult. Sammar and Abood world contains 3 levels which are counting, addition, subtraction and fraction. These levels are look like a variety of stores in the market (Pets shop, Toys shop and pizza restaurant). On each level, the child can learn and play game. The game evaluates children's skills in that level. At the end of the game, the application determines the final grade for the child.

iNanny Children tracking solution/ special device design

Nowadays, parents are getting more worried about their children, so they prefer to keep them close making their free space narrower and their choices less. Therefore, in ordered to give the children more space and keep their parents calmed, we produce our application iNanny that provides children tracking for the parents and

family contact for the children. Moreover, because many parents would not buy smart phones for their children we came up with a device specially design for the children to use our application in. A parent needs to be sure that his child is safe all the time, therefore iNanny will help children to overcome any possible emergency.

Goals:

Provide the parent a service to track his child’s place anytime anywhere.

Enable the child to be in contact with their parents either by text or video/audio call.

Help the child to overcome an emergency situation.

Family members can keep in touch despite their geographical location by using group messaging.

A device to install iNanny child’s interface in, taking under consideration that kids will use it so it should fit their daily activities. The child can check-in his location, contact his parent via text or call, find (police station, hospital…etc) nearby and most importantly press the panic alert button where the application will automatically call his parent.

Parent’s interface of iNanny on an iPhone application that provide all the functionality a worried parent may need to check upon his child such as checking child’s place, contacting him via text or call. She can even create a group chatting with her children if she has more than one in her account. She also can add a relative residence place to appear to the child when needed.

In conclusion, we expect that this project will allow the children to have new experiences and be more independent whilst their parents will be happier for their children to see the world and feeling calm about them simultaneously. We do love our children and get worried about them, but we also want them to live their lives and experiences, so let iNanny be their nanny.

Endless Happiness

The actions that person do to seek his own interest may never cause satisfied results to others; it could sometimes harm them. However, those good deeds you do to bring happiness to other rational beings will typically affect them positively.

In our projects we will shed the light upon tiny manners that share the value of caring of others and thus making them pleased. It will be observed throughout our project that the action's impact could never be measured relying on how big action is, those small behaviors that we perform spontaneously to delight others can cause positive changes. Its impact will also go beyond the others to the one who made them happy, so he will be pleased as a result of pleasing others. We will produce our concept as a movie called " جارية سعادة " or Endless Happiness.

Tweekos شبكة اجتماعة إلدارة مهامك ف أسبوعن

Life is full of exiting experiences such as reading a new book, learning Chess, and watching a marathon of documentary films. One main problem of not accomplishing the finish of these activities is not to set a clear deadline and even if a deadline is determined, logging them and following up the progress might be a little bit messy. Also, there is no rewarding mechanism in which you will feel happy and excited when you finish your task.

Tweekos is a mobile application running on Android smart phones. It is a social network where people share their to-finish tasks. Tweekos comes from Two Weeks, which are the given amount of time to a person to conduct an activity. Tweekos reward you when you finish your task by gaining a ‘Tweeko’, which is a form of point collection and people will be rated based on it.

Tweekos is productivity and entertainment tool by which it manages the time, encourages achieving tasks through rewarding, and helps finding people with the same interests and competing with them.
