A graduate student from the Department of Computer Engineering at the University of Technology (Basma Ahmed Jalil) has been awarded a Master of Science degree in “Interactive System For Tourist and Trade Institutions based on QR code and Mobile Application”, on 08 August, 2019 at the conference hall of the Computer Engineering Department.

In her thesis, the researcher proposed a system to guide and monitor the visitors inside these institutions, in addition, provide a convenient way of shopping and payment in the trade institutions such as malls. The proposed system’s design consists of QR code tag, a designed mobile application and a network infrastructure which is constructed of: Raspberry pi3 working as Wi-Fi access point and local server, main server, switch and communication links.

The presented system has been implemented in real environment (mall and museum) by using three Raspberries, QR tag, android mobile phone, laptop (as main server), switch and Ethernet cables. The obtained results verified what the system is designed for, in both implementation environments. After reading the QR code, the information is presented into two forms: briefed and detailed. furthermore, the guide information is provided to the user in two stages, brief from the local server, and detail from the main server, reduces the load on the main server and on the whole network. This leads to avoid the network congestion.

The discussion committee consisted of four members, Asst. Prof. Dr. Amjad J. Hameedy from the University of Technology – Iraq / Control and Systems Engineering Department as Chairman, Asst. Prof. Dr. Dheya J. kadhim from the Baghdad University / Engineering College / Electrical Engineering Department as a member, Asst. Prof. Dr. Riyadh J. Sunday from the University of Technology – Iraq / Computer Engineering Department as a member, and Prof. Dr. Salih M. Muarig as a member and supervisor from the University of Technology – Iraq / Control and Systems Engineering Department.
