ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This page is where you thank all the people who have helped you with the project, including your supervisor. We as student of Multimedia University (MMU),pursuing Diploma in Telecommunication and Electronics Engineering would like to express the highest gratitude and appreciation to the Centre of Diploma Program(CDP) for allowing us to participated in this Final Year Project (FYP). First of all, we would like to take this opportunity to express our greatest appreciation to our final year project supervisor, Mdm Heenie Marlynna Mursaid and Mdm Noor Ziela . We want to say a “BIG THANK TO BOTH OF YOU” for accepting our proposal and all their time kindness to guide us all the way long during our project research and implementation. Although they always busy with their own schedule, they still have time to discuss the problems that we have at hand and always make corrections to our mistakes before we proceed next step. GRACIAS once again , Mdm Hernieand Mdm Ziela! We really appreciate all you did for us. Finally we would like to thank our dearest family members and friend. They gave us a lot of courage ,physical and moral while we were urging to complete this project. As well as we would like to thank for each our group members for contributes a lot of their effort and time suffering from beginning to the end of our project. Without commitment and lustiest cooperation among members, this project could not be succeeded. Thanks again to all parties that who have contributes to the success of this project either directly or indirectly.

ABSTRACT
An abstract is the summary of the report which contains the statement of what was done, how it was done, the results and the conclusion drawn. It is usually written last after the main body of the documentation is completed. It should not be used to define the purpose of the experiment or to give a general introduction. It should be short and concise, containing only the most critical information meant for the readers who have limited time to read the full report. It is normally limited to 200 words. Very often, technical professionals only read the abstract and will continue reading the entire report only if the abstract attracts their interest.

Gantt Chart

A Gantt chart outlines the aspects of the project that has been completed during the Interim part. The Gantt chart must show the duration taken for selecting group members until delivering the Interim Report. You can refer to the ‘Interim Report – Gantt Chart’ to see how Gantt chart looks like. You can create Gantt chart in Microsoft Excel, MS Project or other project management software.

Division of Work

Division of work is very important make sure every member participates in the project development. Some of the tasks such as preparing documentation and background study must be done by all group members. However certain tasks must be delegated to each group member by the group leader. You can divide the tasks based on types of resources needed for the project. Below is an example of division of tasks (just a format). You may add in those tasks which had been performed during the project but are not included in the table shown below.

PROJECT

Trimester 2 2009/2010

Primary study refers to background information or technical knowledge that is critical to develop your project. It may require understanding the procedures, process or workflow that you may need to follow. Primary study also includes feasibility study on your system given the time constraint and resources available.

2.2

Research/Study On Existing System

DPR5028

PROJECT

Trimester 2 2009/2010

Discuss the existing systems that are available in the market. You may include the circuit designs that are currently being used and provide a brief explanation about the used circuits. On top of that, the hardware and/or software requirement for the system may be presented as well. The study may give you some ideas on the features, methods or approaches which you can apply or incorporate into your research. After some familiarization on the existing system, specify the tasks/improvement that you want to perform in your project. These may include those features which are not being included/performed by the existing system.

3.1

Problem Statement

The problem statement does not refer to problems encountered during your project, but the problem area your work will be able to solve. It gives a good reason for you to do this particular project.
The problem of this project is to design and build a system which can give information about our house security via SMS. The main cause that makes us develop this project is to reduce theft and break in homes. Moreover, robbery in housing areas is becoming a very common incident. Besides that, it is also becoming more and more dangerous, by the day as residents are getting hurt during the robberies. In order to prevent these incidents, we have to build a prototype of a house with security system using microcontroller.

Moreover, it is difficult for the burglar to get into house, because there are RFID are placed in outside house as well. The owner need to tag an ID to open the door. The door can only open 5 second after RFID was tagged. If wrong ID was tagged, the door cannot be opened. If burglar breaking on our house, sensors installed in window and door will on and this information will send to owner cell phone. With this, no matter where, the owner will know the condition of their house.
