Abstract

The objective of this project is to develop a reminder system to remind people of important events. Reminder systems are very important and popular. However, there is no general reminder system currently available. Almost all existing reminder systems are developed for special tasks. This report focuses on developing a reminder system called Smart-Assist, which has all the features of current existing reminder systems. The major distinctive features of Smart-Assist are: (1) An Open Source based system. The use of existing Open Source reduces the cost and promotes its use. (2) A database based application. All the information is stored in a MySQL database and hence persistent. (3) A system which runs either locally or though the Web, but data are made persistent by sharing the same database. (4) A real time system. Event trigger and timing depends on the system time. (5) An automatic event driven alarm system with audio playing feature.
