DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PRISON ONLINE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PRISON ONLINE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

ABSTRACT

Web-based prison management system is an online application software that helps in maintaining and manipulating prison record. This application is designed and hosted in the internet. Prison management system (PMS) provides features where (a prison warder) can access and update inmate details, register new inmate and perform other require task concerning prison activities. These systems also provide features where visitors to prison can perform functions like; visiting request, suggestion and send feedback. Visitor request are attend to by the warder in charge who could be the administrator, and visiting arrangement sent to visitor via mail. Hence the research work is aim at changing the present manual management systems of the institution to a web-based system.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.0     BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The advent of computer and evolution in its science has really brought changes in all institution of life. Ranging from when the ideas of the first electronic computer was conceived and designed, to this era of super-computers phenomenal changes has been remarkably noticed. Its (compute) importance in helping humans manage and manipulate data cannot be overemphasized. Computer plays a significant role for searching, retrieving updating of records at high speed and storing large amount of data.

It should however be noticed that the intelligence behind the physical computer depend on data that are stored in its internal memory such data are invoke by command whenever they are needed for their desired functions.

In this project I am building software for prison management. This particular type of software or system is sorely developed to maintain and manage the activities in an established prison with the arm of improving the efficiency of working in the prison. The software is referred to as prison management system (PMS).                   

The primordial intent for prison establishment is to provide an avenue where offenders of law are kept for a period of time and their attitude corrected or rehabilitated through series of activities and restrictions to rights. Hence such place (prison) is referred to as “rehabilitation centers”. Since offences are crime related the activities of such an institution becomes much more critical. Information about offenders is very important and as such need to be carefully maintained and managed. Owing to the fragile nature of man, maintaining and updating this information in the mind and on papers only, is grossly inadequate, this cannot satisfy the establishment of such instruction, and they will be no good record system. With the number of prison increasing by the second, much more information is needed to be stored and maintain. Hence the idea of a web-based prison management system is very important. Prior to the advent of prison management system, prison record and information are writing manually. This is really strenuous and the risk involved in loosing information was at a higher degree. In most cases, these may be minimal space to pack old records as such discarding these is the usual option adopted. When in future the need arise for such discarded records, they do not get it anymore. But with prison management system, it is a different ball game. With just a punch of a key, records are displayed with details and updating of records is done with ease there by making it easier to keep track of inmates.

Previously, inmates got to be checked and re-checked each time they roared admitted his/her disinterred or transferred. At each station, officers would ask the inmate his/her particulars and match his face with each photo. Now, each inmate is tagged upon admission into prison. This tag is scanned each time he is admitted, discharged or transferred. Tag also allows officers to monitor the movement of the inmate within the prison in real time. These reduce the need for constant roll calls to keep track of the inmates.

Hence in the most general sense, this research is aimed at developing a prison management system that is a collection of registers and reports for the effective management of prisons. This system will contain modules like, nominal roll, case register, interview request, input register and an automated release daily generator.

1.1            STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Inmate information management system in previous times was time consuming due to numerous processes involve in warrant authentification. Moreso, the system of managing inmates information were simply desktop mode. Restriction from unauthorized cold be rarely in preventing this process which terms proposed security treads to the record units in prison at large.

This may result to lack of efficiency which may impossible create an avenue for jail break.

However, this project is focus on designing the web based system that will be used for efficiency prison inmate information management system within the prison in order to control security.

1.2            OBJECTIVE OF STUDY

The project is aimed at: 

• To design a web-base system for prison inmates information management system 
• To investigate the rules of criminal system (CJS) in prison information management system in Nigeria.
• To fine out the challenges involve in the present inmates information management system.
