An Ad Hoc Movement Monitoring Algorithm for Indoor Tracking During Examinations
Main Article Content
Abstract
Academic dishonesty includes cheating in examinations tests and any academic assignments, plagiarism, fabrication of information or citations, facilitation of acts of academic studies by others, unauthorized possession of examination materials, and tampering with the academic work of other researchers or scholars. These acts can be done before, during, and after the actual examination. This paper proposes a holistic algorithm for setting up an ad-hoc monitoring system to track candidates who leave the examination hall during the examination for either toilet breaks, medical breaks, or otherwise. Since most examinations are held indoors it is especially difficult to use existing GPS and GPRS based methods. We submit a proposal to deploy an indoor monitoring system based on the RSS of carefully placed receivers as they communicate with active tags held by the candidates. This paper outlines an algorithm that is used to place the receivers in such a way as to avoid any blind spots which may be utilized as cheating spots. The algorithm was deployed into a testbed system which was 100% foul proof. The proposed algorithm can be used to set up the deployment of the monitoring system in any environment where a clearly defined path is identified.
