1.1 Project Context


The existence of many sophisticated computer systems and various innovations that we
find in this age of technological innovation justifies the saying that necessity is the mother of all
inventions. The need to share information in a so called global network and mans desire to
communicate from long distances called for the birth of the World Wide Web. In this time
internet revolution where everybody wants to be connected anywhere at any time, many of the
mundane tasks and businesses that people conducted were made feasible. Things like buying and
selling various products can now be done online. The consumer no longer needs to moves from
his location. A few clicks from his mouse will suffice enough to do the job. You can now also
earn a degree by taking an online education.
It is no wonder that booking hotel rooms can now be done in a more convenient way
today. If a certain traveler is planning to visit a foreign place, it would be hard for him if he does
not.

PHP stands for Pre-Hyper processor which is a server side scripting language that
is used for forwarding data from websites to the server or retrieve data from a database
linked to the website. In the system, PHP was used to apply data from the forms on the
website and then compare it with the researchers used it to retrieve the data from the
forms on the website and then compare it with the database or create a new database
entry.
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language and is another scripting language.
This scripting language is only used for designing and developing a website. The
researchers used HTML to create the skeleton or structure of the system in terms of
design and layout.

Said that today, the rst inter-organizational tracking & tracing
systems facilitate timely identication and handling of disruptions along
the supply chain. However, these systems typically operate at SCM and
ERP level and therefore lack knowledge and control over production
processes. This paper bridges the gap between logistics and production IT
by proposing a novel architecture for coupling the manufacturing
operations as dened in IEC 62264 with an EPCIS-compliant real time
tracking & tracing system. The system leverages logic-based complex
event processing for detecting critical disruptions in the supply chain and
initiates rescheduling of production. It is shown that in the presence of
unexpected events the rescheduling algorithm minimizes delays and
inventory costs while avoiding nervous schedules caused by frequent
changes. As proof of concept a reference implementation of the
architecture is realized within a discrete production line.

to

accomplish.

According to the manager in the establishment, because they keep on


doing their job manually, it resulted to a very messy office, lots of papers
around the desks and sometimes important documents disappear. From the
information gathered, the proponents came up with an idea of proposing a
system that is relevant to the needs of the establishment, highly efficient to

2.3.12. Lagman D, (September 2012), Lan-Based Reservation System for


Hacienda Gracia Resort and Hotel.
A resort is a place used for relaxation or recreation, where visitors
are being attracted to take their holiday or vacation. It refers to places,
towns or sometimes commercial establishments operated by a single
company. On the other hand, a hotel is differentiated as an establishment
that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis. Computer programmers
are continuously developing a system application to better serve resort or
hotel guests because some hotels and resorts are becoming fully automated
while others are still striving for the similar setting.

The researchers introduce a LAN-Based Reservation with Billing


System for Hacienda Gracia Resort and Hotel to improve its reservation
and billing system. The advent of new technology gave rise to easy and
hassle-free interaction between and among humans. This is why most
hotel and resorts prefer to employ computerization in their business.

CHAPTER 3
METHODOLOGY AND DESIGN
3.1 Organizational Assessment
In the year 2003, the institution gave high priority to the need to offer hospitality
courses. In the same year, Systems Plus College Foundation answered this necessity by
establishing a College that catered various discipline in the field of hospitality. Thus, this
realization paved the way to the inception of the College of Hospitality Management.
The first two programs, Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management
(BSHRM) and Bachelor of Science in Tourism (BST), Opening its doors to these
pioneering students marked its first year as a novel College of the institution.
Since then, SPCF and the College of Hospitality Management (CHM) braved itself
to be one of the Higher Learning Institutions (HEI) in Pampanga that produces highly
qualified graduates in the field of hospitality management.
The study focuses on managing the hotel reservation process that will allow the user
to check available rooms in the hotel, manage reservations and book a hotel room online.
The Centralized Billing Module, a system that computes all of the purchases made by the
guest/guests in the hotel. Because it is developed for the hotel reservation, they can
control all of the expenses made by the customer within the hotel, summarizes the bills
and extra charges of the guest and also they can view the status of every hotel rooms.

3.1.1

Operational Feasibility
The researchers have observed problems in the processes of
making a hotel room reservation. The problem that the staff and
customers encountered was the unmanaged customer database,
manual registration when making a reservation and it will be a
waste of time for the customers going to the hotel and knowing
that there are no available room to reserve. That is why the
researchers have come up with a module for the study which
allows:

The hotel admin to manage customer database,


maintenance, announcements and services offered.

The front desk officers to view the status of every hotel


rooms, manage reservations quickly and manage every
requests and needs of a customer.

The customers to easily check online for available


rooms to book.

3.1.2

Technical Feasibility
The proposed system is a web and mobile based system
which gives the user ease of use. The only main requirement in
order to run the system is to have a stable and adequate Internet
connection, a smartphone and a computer system. So when tested
and implemented at the locale, the only things needed are a
Page | 29

Bachelor of Science in Information Technology

personal computer, a smartphone and a stable Internet connection


and network infrastructure which are all already present at the
locale and would not be need to be purchased again.
3.1.3

Schedule Feasibility
In tackling the development of the system, the researchers
decided to allot a certain amount of time to different tasks that
need to be undergone in order for the successful development of
the system. The allocated one (1) month for extensive data
gathering in order to properly grasp the essence of the hotel
reservation process. During the data gathering, prototypes of the
system were conceptualized.

3.1.4

Economic Feasibility
Making a reservation in a hotel would be a lot easier due to
the system. For example instead of going directly to the hotel the
customer can check the website with their phone or in a computer
to see if there are rooms available and what services do they offer.
On the other hand the benefits of the research to the admin and the
staff would be mainly non tangible. The benefits includes the
increase in processes of making a hotel reservation, increase in
online advertisement, generating the remaining and additional
balance of the customer and checking of the status of every room
could be easier and faster to process. Through the system the
admin and the staff would be working more efficiently.
