CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Computers have transformed the world and will continue to do so. In all
they do, they make a positive impact on people's lives. It is used for storing and
processing data; because of their processing power and storage capacities, they may
serve as massive knowledge bases and be used for a variety of transactions.
Computers have grown in importance in everyday life as they have become a daily
need. Their rise has compelled every business and educational institution to move
away from paper-based methods and toward automated solutions.
Technology is rapidly evolving, and today every establishment and
institution in the country employs modern technologies in order to serve clients
quickly and efficiently, improve, provide accurate tabulation systems, and
anticipate fall counts and forecasts as soon as possible, and solve a variety of
problems.
There have been numerous technologies that have aided various profitable
firms. Using Android as a mobile operating system is similar. Android is a highly

customizable and user-friendly operating system that powers more than one billion
devices worldwide, ranging from phones and tablets to televisions, cars, and more.
Many things can happen as a result of the said OS's many advantages, and
it is becoming more possible and, most importantly, portable. This project is for
academic institutions, and it aims to use a mobile-based tabulation system. For all
of the school's events and competitions, there is a structure in place. Every time the
school has sporting events or pageant contests, they tabulate and generate results
using pen, paper, and boards, which is difficult to compute and takes a long time.
The school's sports and cultural office will be in charge of the events, and the
project will be handled and maintained by that office with the help of the
institution's IT staff. The team has opted to design an android tabulation system
based on the aforementioned supporting statements. The project will assist the
school, particularly during pageants, by allowing them to calculate, tabulate, and
generate the contest results in a timely and accurate manner.
1.1 Statement of the Problem
Event Coordinators these days are using manual recordings of results in
many events. The following are the said problems when dealing with the manual
recording on events:

1. Records might get damage due to some reasons like: getting wet, getting
torn apart.
2. Records might get lost or misplaced.
3. Manual recording takes much more effort and time.
4. Records may look messy due to erasures and wrong inputs by human
errors.
1.2 Objectives of the study
This capstone project aims to design, develop, implement, and maintain a
tabulation system. The researchers will conduct the study with the desire for the
fulfillment of the following objectives:
1. To prevent damages due to human errors.
2. To secure the records and prevent data loss.
3. To lessen the burden from manual tabulation process.
4. Records will be printed out to have a neat outcome.

1.3 Conceptual Framework
Figure 1: Input–Process-Output Diagram
1.4 Delimitation of the Study
The project will be implemented based on the requirements provided and
needed by the end-users. The output of the project is a Pageant tabulator system ;
the said application can also be installed on desktop and laptop with android
emulator.
The Pageant tabulator will only run online with the help of Wi-Fi or Mobile
Data. The participants in this study are selected administrators who will run the
system, as well as judges and candidates.

1.5 Significance of the Study
The system will be a big help for the judge, and Admins/Management. It
will be of great assistance for the user decision making and for the judges in
calculating the scores of every participant such as solving the final results.
Who will benefit of our study?
To the Contestants:
The study will give them accurate and complete scores of tabulations.
To the Emcee:
The study will give the emcee the venue to view the result of the events
in different categories.
To the Judges:
This system aims to give accurate and effective system in tabulating the
scores in different categories. With the use of the new system, it is
beneficial for them in terms of: they don’t need to manually calculate
the scores in each category, less time to be spending in calculating score
and paper less material requisition. The outcome will lead into more
efficient and better services to the school.

To the Researchers:
This study will give the researcher an outlet to further develop their
programming skills. This study will also improve the research and thesis
writing skills of the researcher.
To the Future researchers:
This will serve as basis if they conduct a study about event tabulation
system.

CHAPTER 2
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
2.1 Android Based Events Tabulation System
According to Waqas Ahmed on Feb.2014 Android based Event tabulation
(2014) Task automation has become quite popular among mobile users thanks to
apps like Tasked. Tasked allows you to configure different scenarios based on
current location, time, event and so on, and automatically trigger different actions
based on those scenarios. For instance, if you want your phone to automatically
switch to silent mode when connected for charging or need to turn off Wi-Fi when
you’re on the road, you can easily achieve that using Tasker. This Mobile-based
events tabulation System is if you have a technology or have an application it is
easy for the users to give score and calculate the score of every contestant in every
category.
2.2 Statistical Export and Tabulation System
According to this website Statistical Export and Tabulation System (SETS)
by: Clifton Road Atlanta give data users the tools to access and manipulate large

data files on their personal computers. SETS 2.0 have been optimized for use with
Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT.
Users can order the SETS Designer Kit, which contains software to create,
build, and edit large data sets, as well as the SETS Interface. Users may also choose
to install only the SETS Interface to access data already in SETS.
2.3 Electric Tabulation System
According to H. Hollerith this website the Electric tabulation System (2014)
who have not come directly in contact with a census office, can form any adequate
idea of the labor involved in the compilation of a census of 50,000,000 persons, as
was the case in the last census, or of over 62,000,000, as will be the case
In the census to be taken in June, 1890. The fact, however, that Congress at
its last session in “An Act to provide for the taking of the eleventh and subsequent
censuses,” fixes the maximum cost of the next or eleventh census, exclusive of
printing and engraving, at $6,400,000, will perhaps impress one with some idea of
the magnitude of such an undertaking.
Although our population is constantly increasing, and although at each
census more complicated combinations and greater detail are required in the various
compilations, still, up to the present time, substantially the original method of

compilation has been employed; that of making tally-marks in small squares and
then adding and counting such tally-marks.
While engaged in work upon the tenth census, the writer’s attention was
called to the methods employed in the tabulation of population statistics and the.
enormous expense involved. These methods were at the time described as
“barbarous, some machine ought to be devised for the purpose of facilitating, such
tabulations. This led the writer to a thorough study of the details of the methods
used, which were no doubt the most approved ever employed in compiling a census.
After a careful consideration of the many problems involved and considerable
experimenting on quite a large scale, the method which forms the subject of this
paper is confidently offered as a means for facilitating this work. Work of a census
can be divided into two main branches: that of enumeration, and that of compilation
or tabulation.
2.4 Public Test of Vote Tabulation System
According to the order of the Cuyahoga County board of election this
website the test conducted May 16, 2014, at 9:30 a.m. in the Ballot Tabulation
Center of the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections Warehouse, 1890 East 40th
Street, Cleveland, OH 44103. The test is open to the public. Public Test of Vote

Tabulation System (2014) automatic tabulating equipment will be tested to
demonstrate the accuracy of the vote tabulation system.
2.5 Kofoid tabulation system
According to “Kofoid” tabulation system developed by: Kofoid (1907b, c,
1909, 1911a) and employing four landmarks: the sulcus, the cingulum,
the apex (usually determined by the apical pore complex), and the ant apex. The
plates immediately anterior to the cingulum constitute the precingular series; the
plates immediately posterior to the cingulum constitute the post Cingular series; the
plates contacting the apical pore complex make up the apical series; and the plates
in the region of the ant apex constitute the ant apical series.
2.6 Agjudgetayon –Automated pageant scoring and Tabulation System
According to Fedena MIT (2015) Automated pageant scoring and
tabulation System Developed at the University of Northern Philippines for use in
the Miss CCIT (College of Communication and Information Technology) Pageant
and the University wide Miss UNP Pageant. Allows any number of judges to enter
their scores for varying rounds throughout the pageant. Upon completing each
round, and ultimately the pageant, PDF reports can be generated and printed the

reports have lines for the judges to sign indicating that their scores are accurate.
This ensures a complete paper trail of the final pageant results.
Synthesis
Event tabulation system enables the automatic calculation of the scores
rendered by the user and provides a lesser time and effort in generating the event
tabulation. The system helps a lot to the judges which are the ones who process the
scores in an event. Considering this as an automated, it makes the work of the user
fast, less paperwork and less efficient. The application tabulates the event of the
scores of each category of every event. In line of this, the time will be track
accurately and provide efficient and fast result generating the score.
The proposed Event tabulation system focuses on the calculation of scores
in different category in the event providing efficient and reliable computation.
Tabulation of events using the application technology gives accurate and reliable
data that gives awareness for the user who process the events tabulation and will be
given an answer because of the mobile-based event tabulation system. The
application provides faster and efficient event tabulation. In addition, it provides a
green light to the researcher to make the system.

CHAPTER 3
METHODOLOGY
3.1 Requirement Analysis
This stage entails gathering information to analyze and determine all that is
required. The assessment's goal is to evaluate the project's efficiency, relevance,
effectiveness, and sustainability, as well as to examine the project's impact in
respect to the overall goals.
The assessment's goal is to look at the project's efficiency, effectiveness,
relevance, and long-term viability, as well as to document and measure the project's
influence on the overall goals and intended outcomes. The study employed an
evaluation checklist or survey questionnaire to see if there were flaws in the
system's implementation, whether the users enjoyed it, whether it was effective,
and if there were any areas that needed to be addressed in the ongoing system. To
determine the extent of the improvements, a re-evaluation of the application is
recommended.

Regarding the Mobile-Based Event Tabulation System, the researchers will
conduct consultations and interviews. This information will be used or made for
features that will be put in the system to help run the program successfully and
efficiently.
3.2 Analysis and Design
All actions that aid in the transition of requirement specifications into
implementations are included in analysis and design. This will assist the researcher
in the development of the system design and methodology. Assist the user in
comprehending how to engage with the technology.
Use-Case Diagram
The Use-Case Diagram is used by the researchers to show and describe how
users interact with the system. The use-case diagram uses actors and use cases to
depict the system's functionality. A use case is a set of actions and functions that
the system must carry out, and "actors" are the individuals or entities who perform
those actions and tasks. This part will also serve as a guide for the researcher when
he or she chooses specific needs to incorporate into the proposed system.
Data flow Diagram
The researcher uses the Data Flow Diagram to illustrate the
processing steps as data flow through a system where it describes the inputs,

outputs, how the data flows in the system, and where the data is stored. This
diagram will serve as a guide for the researcher to facilitate the implementation and
manufacture of the proposed system.

3.3 Implementation
Following extensive testing by the proponents of the planned system, it is
now time for implementation to begin. The project will be implemented on an
android device, and the input gathered will be used to make improvements to the
functionality and features. However, certain proposals may not be implemented
since they are outside the scope of the project.
The language to be use for the development for the system is Java
programming language that is class-based and designed specifically to have
minimal implementation dependencies.The researcher created the proposed
system's user interface using various system models such as PHP, MySQL, and
Bootstrap.
3.4 Testing and Evaluation
During the system's testing phase, the proponents conduct a survey of IT
professionals and system respondents in order to correct some mistakes and choose
some further suggestions. The survey serves as a summary of the system's findings,
conclusions, and recommendations. The proponents of testing want to know if the
system satisfies the study's goals and provides user pleasure.

The proponents do an evaluation to determine whether the user accepts the
proposed system and if they are satisfied with it. Some of the assessors offer
remarks and recommendations for the system's new improvement. The developers
apply the acquired feedback from users through conducting a survey and evaluation
whether to consider any modifications in the functions of the system's features for
the satisfaction of respondents and to satisfy the study's objectives.
3.4.1 Instruments Used
The researcher selected a checklist questionnaire that contains the list of all
the system’s functionalities and will using the 5 Points Likert Scale in data
collection to determine the respondent’s satisfaction with the proposed system. On
the Likert scale, respondents had the option of rating the generated system as
Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor, or Very Poor. Respondents could only select one
option for each question and mark a check on their chosen option to assess their
level of satisfaction while using the developed system.

Verbal Interpretation based on the Likert Scale
Scale Range Response Verbal
Interpretation
5 4.50 – 5.00 Excellent Very Satisfied
4 3.50– 4.49 Good Satisfied
3 2.50– 3.49 Fair Neutral
2 1.50– 2.49 Poor Unsatisfied
1 1.00– 1.49 Very Poor Very Unsatisfied
3.4.2 Statistical Tools Used
In this method, the researcher used Sample Mean statistical tools to compute
and interpret the gathered data during the testing of the developed system.
Sample Mean- to get the average rating of the system’s functions.
x
̄ = ( ∑ xi) / n
Where: x
̄ = sample mean

∑ = summation
xi = all the X-values
n = number of items in the data set
3.5 Deployment
The main goal of the deployment phase is to deliver the application to the
research site, allowing the teachers and students to start using it for testing purposes.
The created application will first make sure that it is free from errors or will undergo
debugging so that it can run successfully on the android devices. If all goes well in
accordance with the end user’s satisfaction, then it will be deployed and be used for
an actual event tabulation In the University.
