WEB BASED CINEMA SEAT ALLOCATION SYSTEM - CASE STUDY KADA PLAZA ABSTRACT A computer reservation system or central

reservation system is a computerized system used to store and retrieve information and conduct transactions related to air travel, hotels, car rental, or activities. These systems typically allow users to book hotel rooms, rental cars, airline tickets as well as activities and tours. They also provide access to railway reservations and bus reservations in some markets, although these are not always integrated with the main system. For these systems to be accessible on mobile phones and computers outside the premises of the airport, cinema, train station or stadiums, they need to be on the internet or a network. This project focuses on the design and implementation of a web based cinema management system for the allocation of seat tickets online. The system would feature the registration of users, use of serial numbers and pins gotten from scratch cards sold and a printed slip. The system would have a store of all the seats and automate the generation of fresh serial numbers and pins.

CHAPTER ONE- INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY A movie theater or movie theatre (also called a cinema, movie house, film house, film theater or picture house is a venue, usually a building, for viewing movies (films . !ost but not all movie theaters are commercial operations catering to the general public, who attend by purchasing a ticket. The movie is projected with a movie projector onto a large projection screen at the front of the auditorium. !ost movie theaters are now e"uipped for digital cinema projection, removing the need to create and transport a physical film print. #igerian film industry had always been making films on celluloid and the films were screened in cinema houses across #igeria and later released on $%& for various homes. %owever, the release of the &traight'to'video movie (iving in )ondage in *++, by #-. $ideo (inks owned by .enneth #nebue launched the %ome video market in #igeria. #nebue had an e/cess number of imported video cassettes which he then used to shoot his first film on a $ideo 0amera. #ollywood e/ploded into a booming industry in the late 1+2s and pushed foreign media off the shelves. 3t is now an industry marketed all over Africa and the rest of the world. Thus the use of cinemas has a long history and reveals the general acceptance of cinema use. )ut the seat reservation and management of movies needs to be computerized.

LITERATURE REVIEW 2.4 INFORMATION MANGEMENT SYSTEM An information management system or management information system (!3& provides information that is needed to manage organizations efficiently and effectively. !anagement information systems are not only computer systems ' these systems encompass three primary components7 technology, people (individuals, groups, or organizations , and data9information for decision making (4weiri, ,22: . !anagement information systems are distinct from other information systems in that they are designed to be used to analyze and facilitate strategic and operational activities in the organization. Academically, the term is commonly used to refer to the study of how individuals, groups, and organizations evaluate, design, implement, manage, and utilize systems to generate information to improve efficiency and effectiveness of decision making, including systems termed decision support systems, e/pert systems, and e/ecutive information systems. A management information system is also a set of processes that allows companies to move information through their business operations. )usiness owners and managers use the information to make decisions, among other things. The e/panding variety and use of information technology'''particularly computers'''allows companies to automate this critical business function. (;ikipedia, ,2*, .

2.1 EFFECTS OF USING COMPUTERIZED INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS 0ompanies are able to highlight their strengths and weaknesses due to the presence of revenue reports, employees1 performance record etc. The identification of these aspects can help the organization improve their business processes and operations. 5iving an overall picture of the organization and acting as a communication and planning tool. The availability of the customer data and feedback can help the organization to align their business processes according to the needs of the customers. The effective management of customer data can help the organization to perform direct marketing and promotion activities. 3nformation is considered to be an important asset for any organization in the modern competitive world. The consumer buying trends and behaviours can be predicted by the analysis of sales and revenue reports from each operating region of the organization. (4weiri, ,22: !anagement information systems have changed the dynamics of running businesses efficiently. 4ecentralization is one of the biggest advantages< it allows monitoring of operations at low levels and frees up resources for departmental managers to devote time to strategic activities. 0oordination of specialized projects and activities is much better and decision makers in the organization are aware of issues and problems in all departments. Another advantage of !3& is

that it minimizes information overload, which can be "uite common with conventional businesses in the modern era. 3nformation systems have to be designed and managed in such way that it aggregates information, monitors the organization=s activities and operations and enhances communication and collaboration among employees. This ensures better planning for all activities and better ways to measure performance, manage resources and facilitate compliance with industry and government regulations. 0ontrol helps in forecasting, preparing accurate budgets and providing the tools and vital information to employees, top management and business partners. 2.2 COUNTRY WIDE CINEMA INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The system covers all cinemas in a country, but depending upon needs, it can integrate cinemas of other countries as well. Any cinema has one or more rooms, and each room contains a set of seats. A room can be built and integrated in the system through a room 4esigner interface, managed through a web based cinema manager interface. 3n future releases, this system will provide an interface allowing e/isting cinema management systems to easily adapt to communicate with the system. 6eople should use this system to find particular movie'sessions by various search criteria like country, area, city, time, and cinema or movie title. ;hen entering the web'page the system automatically sets the search conditions to the

local area, and a time interval spanning the rest of the current day. ;hen the user has entered search criteria he or she will be presented with a list of session' links that fulfill the criteria or an empty list. 0licking a session link returns a graphical presentation of the room of the session, at which seats can be selected9deselected, a total prize displayed and a booking'commit button. A booking number will be displayed at the screen. The user can bring along this booking number and have the tickets printed later. Also, this booking number is essential if the user should have his9her money back due to session'cancellation, disease or other problems. 3f a user does not pay before some time limit, specified by the local cinema, before the session begins, the reservation will automatically be cancelled and the corresponding set of seats becomes available for other users. ;hen the movie has been on for some time'span, which is also set by the cinema manager, booking or buying a ticket for that particular session is no longer possible. %owever, the session information is kept for some time to handle any customer're"uests or 'complaints. >pon payment, printing the corresponding tickets is possible at any computer connected to the internet and a printer, or at any cinema covered by the system. 3t is the user=s responsibility to take care of the tickets because a given ticket, representing a seat, can only be printed once. (&teward ,2**

The system provides functionality for a cinema manager to schedule future movies at his9her own cinema, i.e., entering sessions into the database, as well as changing the scheduling and correcting errors in scheduling.

2.3 ONLINE MOVIE THEATRE TICKET BOOKING SYSTEM This is a online web site on which user as well as theatre owner register themselves and use this site to update movies in theatre and search for particular location of theatre as well as book tickets for particular movie. Also theatre authority can check by ticket number for valid user. 2.4 DATA BASE DESIGN STRUCTURE FOR AN INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR A MOVIE THEATER According A local movie theater is interested in building a database information system. The database will keep the information about the customers, sales, etc. The system will enable the management to analyze the progress of the business, create financial reports, etc. An important aspect of this project is to develop a web application that will allow the customers to check the schedule of movies and purchase tickets on'line.

DATA TO BE MANAGED An information management system generally manages data. 3n the case of a cinema management system, the following data would be managed. 2.!.1 MOVIES This data would include a listing of the movies to be shown in the cinema, details of the movie such as title, cast, and introduction including a short clip perhaps. All these could be assessed on the system.

2.!.2 SEATS The number and details of seats are registered on the system. This enables automated allocation or manual choosing by users on the system. This fle/ibility allows for preference in choosing a seat. 2.!.3 VIEWER DATA The data of the viewer also needs to be managed as the viewer would provide personal details including a passport photograph. 2." PAYMENT SYSTEMS %ere we discuss the available payment systems which could be used in processing payments for a web based cinema information management system. 2.!.1 ELECTRONIC PAYMENT AND ONLINE ELECTRONIC PAYMENT FOR TICKETING Fing, (,2** e/plained that online electronic payments are not tantamount to electronic payments. 3n the emergence of e'commerce, credit cards have long been represented by electronic means of payment, credit cards in shopping malls. !any hotels and other places and items could swipe of the card, 6G& terminals ?egulations, AT! cash forms of payment. And online electronic payments, online payments also known as electronic currency, broadly speaking, refer to a transaction in the online e/change of funds< 3t is a network'based electronic financial, a business card transactions for all types of electronic tools

and media, the electronic computer and communications technologies as a means -lectronic data (binary data stored in the bank1s computer system and through the computer network system in the form of the flow of electronic information transfer and payment. -lectronic 6ayment &ystem is the basis for online payments, and online payments system development is a higher form of electronic payment. 3t makes electronic payment may, at any time, through the 3nternet directly to the transfer, settlement and form e'business environment. 2.!.2. USE OF SCRATCH CARDS WITH PREDEFINED PINS AND SERIAL NUMBERS 3n online shopping online electronic payment function is the key issue to ensure the consumers are fast and convenient, we have to ensure the safety and secrecy of the parties to a transaction, which re"uires a complete electronic trading systems. 0urrently, several online electronic payment systems used which include internet )ank 0ard 6ayment &ystem 3ncluding online credit card, smart card (30 card payment systems and are established in accordance with the standards set shopping and payment system. Thus using scratch cards which have been automatically generated and printed without patterns vulnerable to hackers presents another alternative method of paying for seats in a cinema. These scratch cards could be purchased as a regular feature like normal recharge cards. Gn logging on to the site, users could then fill in their personal information along side the scratch card details to get a seat reserved.

CHAPTER THREE DESIGN ARCHITECTURE FOR WEB BASED CINEMA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 3.1 INTRODUCTION 3n this section, we present the design of our proposed system with technical details such as flow charts, use case diagram and data base table structures. ;e also present an analysis of the e/isting system, kada plaza with the properties of the new proposed system with the aim of solving those problems discovered. 3.2 ANALYSIS OF THE E5ISTING SYSTEM The ticketing system of kada plaza is done in the cinema arena. The payments are done there in cash and choices of seats are not presented. The data of the viewer is not entered properly into the system for future references and the process is generally slow as persons have to "ueue up to be attended to. 3.3 PROBLEMS OF E5ISTING SYSTEM From the general flow of data in the current system, we found the following problems

(ack of comfort' the whole seat allocation system is manual. >sers are not able to book and register seats from their comfort zone. There is no provision for reserving seat by pro/y. This makes the overall process slow.

4eleting and adding new seats proves to be complicated as manual records need to be updated and it does not reflect on all points of contact.

There is no digital data of a person entering the cinema hall which could be useful for security purposes.

4esign and printing of tickets is not fully automated but designed as a template and printed for all seats pending who takes the seat

0ash is paid on site which makes physical cash present in the site and this proves to be risky in crime zones.

3.4 PROPOSED SYSTEM The web based cinema seat allocation system will have the following features #etwork access 8 this means it could be used either on the internet or on a local area network ((A# . ?emote seat reservation 8 seats could be reserved by individuals from their homes before coming to the cinema. They also get to see the list of movies viewing on a particular day.

Automatic management of seats 8 the system would have a panel for automatically generating seat numbers and id. This would also aid the adding or removal of seats.

6rinting of tickets would be automated showing the picture of the person reserving a seat.

5eneration of serial numbers and pins for cinema scratch cards would also be possible with option for printing. These cards would be paid for and used in reserving the seats.

@.: ARCHITECTURE FOR PROPOSED NETWORK 3n this section, we use a use case diagram to show the overall use of the system summarizing each function and process carried out by a user of the system. The main users are the customer and administrator. The roles of the customer include purchasing a scratch card, entering data online, making a seat reservation and printing out the acknowledgement slip or ticket. The role of the administrator is to register pins and serial numbers, register and mange seats and see who seats have been assigned to incase of any fraudulent acts. The figure below shows the use case diagram of the web based cinema seat allocation system.

CHOICE OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE - PHP

&hafik M ?amsey (,22C , defined 6%6 as a server'side scripting language designed for web development but also used as a general'purpose programming language. 6%6 is now installed on more than ,2 million websites and * million web servers. Griginally created by ?asmus (erdorf in *++:, the reference implementation of 6%6 is now produced by The 6%6 5roup. ;hile 6%6 originally stood for 6ersonal %ome 6age, it is now said to stand for 6%67 %yperte/t 6reprocessor, a recursive acronym. 6%6 code is interpreted by a web server with a 6%6 processor module which generates the resulting web page7 6%6 commands can be embedded directly into an %T!( source document rather than calling an e/ternal file to process data. 3t has also evolved to include a command'line interface capability and can be used in standalone graphical applications. 6%6 is free software released under the 6%6 (icense, which is incompatible with the 5#> 5eneral 6ublic (icense (56( due to restrictions on the usage of the term 6%6. 6%6 can be deployed on most web servers and also as a standalone shell on almost every operating system and platform, free of charge. Gn !ay ,,, ,222, 6%6 A, powered by the Nend -ngine *.2, was released. As of August ,22E this branch is up to version A.A.+. 6%6 A is no longer under development nor will any security updates be released. Gn Fuly *@, ,22A, 6%6 : was released, powered by the new Nend -ngine 33. 6%6 : included new features such as improved support for object'oriented

programming, the 6%6 4ata Gbjects (64G

e/tension (which defines a

lightweight and consistent interface for accessing databases , and numerous performance enhancements. 3n ,22E 6%6 : became the only stable version under development. (ate static binding had been missing from 6%6 and was added in version :.@. A new major version has been under development alongside 6%6 : for several years. This version was originally planned to be released as 6%6 C as a result of its significant changes, which included plans for full >nicode support. %owever, >nicode support took developers much longer to implement than originally thought, and the decision was made in !arch ,2*2 to move the project to a branch, with features still under development moved to trunk. 6%6 was used in the development of this project for the following reasons *. 6%6 is an open source programming language and it is free. 3t also ensures fle/ibility 8 this means that the program could be hosted online on a network 8 internet or intranet or offline on a single computer ,. 6%6 is user friendly like simple and easy to learn compare to other programming languages like 0, 0OO, and A&6.net. @. 6%6 can be easily integrates into %T!(, even you can manage it without using %T!( as well.

A. 6%6 is cross platform support language and it can be supported on most web servers and runs on all major operating systems like (inu/, !ac G&6%6 can be used to develop web applications for personal websites to e'commerce applications and community portals sites e.g. discussion forums, blogs etc. :. 6%6 doesn1t use a lot of the system=s resources so it runs fast and doesn=t tend to slow other processes down. 3t is typically used as an Apache module, written in 0, so it loads and e/ecutes "uickly. 3t works well with other software and can be "uite fast. 6%6 is also fairly stable and since it is open source, the 6%6 community works together to fi/ any bugs. The community offers technical support and continuously updates the code further e/panding 6%6=s capabilities. C. Another key advantage of 6%6 is its connective abilities. 6%6 uses a modular system of e/tensions to interface with a variety of libraries such as graphics, L!(, encryption, etc. 3n addition, programmers can e/tend 6%6 by writing their own e/tensions and compiling them into the e/ecutable or they can create their own e/ecutable and load it using 6%6=s dynamic loading mechanism.

4.4 SYSTEM TESTING The system was tested using : persons. The data of these persons were collected and five scratch cards were printed out. -ach of the person=s details

were entered into the system including passports and the scratch card details were also entered. A.A.* OUTPUT The result showed that : seats chosen by the persons were allocated and the seats differed because once a seat has been taken, it is locked to the user till ,A hours. The mobile no of the persons served as a key to reprinting or accessing the ticket data. 4.4.2 ERROR CHECK To test for errors, the system was subjected to fake scratch cards which proved invalid. 6ersons registered attempted registration with the same mobile number. This directed the person to his seat details. 4. SYSTEM MAINTENANCE The system would be maintained in the following ways ?enewal of internet hosting fee 8 this re"uires a payment to the internet hosting company for a period of one year interval. The administrator would check for seats that are invalid from time to time to remove them from the allocation list The administrator would generate scratch cards for the number of seats present for the daily cinema views. The administrator would delete e/pired users from the system.

CHAPTER FIVE 3 SUMMARY CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION .4 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION This project focused on the design and implementation of an online 0inema 3nformation !anagement &ystem for the management of seat information in kada plaza. The system was developed to carry out the functions of managing cinema seat information, user information and scratch card pin and serial generation. The system would greatly enhance the allocation of seats and online access to seat and movie information from the comforts of the home. .1 RECOMMENDATION 3t is hereby recommended for this system to be adopted for use by kada plaza and other cinema viewing centers.
