THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE
Introduction
Computer technology has been a great help to the improvement of one’s life. Most establishments, corporations and institutions had developed their own use of such technology to help themselves work more efficiently with less time and effort, resulting in better production, profit, and a more satisfied clientele.
One example of computer technology is the creation of a computer system. A design, fit for the company’s needs as well as for the customer’s. A system that will help personnel work more efficiently especially in accessing and retrieving data in and less time as possible.
The creation of an Automated SSC Election System of STI-Dipolog will help the staff’s work a lot easier and more effective because of the automation of tally of votes of students during the election period.
Using computers/machines, they would be the one to tally and transmit the votes to the electoral board without human intervention. The automated electoral system mechanisms significantly reduce the chances of errors, because vote counting is based on an internal machine count rather than on individual ballots, which can be tampered with. (http://iskwiki.upd.edu.ph,) According to the URL http://iskwiki.upd.edu.ph, computerized voting is a superior form of casting ballots. It allows for fairer and faster voting. It takes many forms with different processes but how it is implemented depends on the technological facilities allocated for the elections procedure. Automated election system (AES) is a system that uses appropriate technology to accomplish and aid such tasks as voting, counting, consolidating, canvassing, and transmission of election result, and other electoral process.
Theoretical/Conceptual Framework
This study is fastened to the study of an Automated SSC Election System of STI – Dipolog City. It started from gathering of inputs such as use or school’s specifications and needs in order to come up another requirement
