Abstract - Organizations aim at acknowledging their
entities with latest updates. Building a website site for an
organization that contains everything about that particular
organization is necessary but also hard to maintain. It is
effective for business and advertising but not proven to be very
handy. The number of mobile users has increased as compared
to the desktop users so it is ideal to create a mobile application
because it can be accessed by anyone, irrespective of time and
it can be optimized to the lowest configuration possible. This
app will support host- client relationship. All the updated data
by host overtime would be stored in and managed by firebase
database. This application is based on languages such as XML
and Java; where XML is going to play a major role in creating
animations and presentation while Java helps in designing its
functionality.
Key Words: news app, instant notification, updating
app, android application, portal news access, push down
notification.
1.INTRODUCTION
In this digital world, each and every person is connected to
each other. One can reach the internet anytime and
anywhere. In other words, with this facility of advanced
methodology of digital communication, a mobile application
can act as a digital hand in delivering all the concerned
information that an organization wants to be known by its
entities. Organizations prefer to use offline methods to send
the information on any subject to its entities which is very
time-consuming and there is always the possibility that its
entity is not aware of the updated information which leads to
spreading false information.
To overcome this issue, this app is being created which can
provide all the details in one place about everything that is
being and will be circulated in the organization. By this app,
the users will have the facility and access to all the necessary
information updated by the organization.
This app starts with a login step categorized as DzRegisterdz or
DzSign )ndz. The client will need to register when he opens the
application for the first time and can login with the
administrative power once he signs up as the Host. The
menu contains two options -first is to view data and the
second is to update it. If the client logs in with the admin
power, they can provide the necessary and required updates.
Moreover, they have the privilege to see updates by other
hosts too. All the updated data is stored and managed by the
firebase database itself. If the user chooses to login as a
client, they will have the facility to view all the updates
assembled according to the date and time. They won’t be
able to make any changes to the updated data, but can access
it from anywhere and at any point of time.
According to the organization rules, hosts are instructed not
to be added in any groups in the social networking sites. But,
they are to convey their messages on time. Unfortunately,
they don't have any other option than getting added in such
groups and even after all this, they keep on getting numerous
texts and calls regarding petty queries, clarity on rumors and
unnecessary notifications as they are also the part of the
groups. To get them over such issues and to create a direct
path for communication by the host, they themselves sort
any of such needed updates. The basic idea is to reduce
rumours and being updated. Thus to enhance these features,
an application is being created that acts as a solution to all
such problems.
Moreover, the app is not just useful for hosts but also for the
clients too.
Hence, the clients will receive instant notification regarding
all the happenings going on, in and around their
organization, such as about its new rules and regulations,
upcoming holidays, placement related detailed information,
exam schedule, seating arrangements, upcoming events of all
the departments as well as those in and around their
surroundings by trustable sources.
2. LITERATURE SURVEY
To provide a friendly interface to do human-machine
interaction, user-used instant messengers, and defining
interfaces to abstract general functionalism, the message
translation and session was designed in server [1]. Yet, they
haven’t added policy mechanism in the notification server
[1].
)n their paper, their main focus was on the users’ browsing
behaviors and to set preference according to users’ records
[2]. But they are still working on this as all the users can’t be
categorized in this as they surf through their genuine
preferences [2].
