The application fully exploits a JDBC connection to manage and allocate
resources such as staff and facilities. This main screen shows an
overview of the typical semester session. Double clicking on a
selected cell brigns up 'selector' form, which lists available
alternates to the selected resource. (Please note, these are only
screen shots.) For an actual demonstration, please email
.
The "Schedule New Class" button brings up the editor form (at right). As times and days are selected, resources in the drop down boxes appear and disappear according to availability.
A key element of the application is the simplicity of use. The following screen (below) allows the to user to add or remove teachers, rooms, or to add new class descriptions.
When a resource is deleted (above) , the
user is given a list affected classes (below). This simplifies the
process of rescheduling and finding alternate resources.
To further assist in the optimal use of resources, the 'Room Finder' and 'Staff Locator' views present a quick overview of available resources.
