ABSTRACT

This project is specially put together with the aim of enlightening its users or giving an insight of the impact of computer on birth registration system. It is believed that at the end of the work, its users would be able to know the importance induced in registration of every newly born child into the country, so as to enable the federal Republic of Nigeria to statistically know the number of citizens that are in the nation.

          In view of this, a careful study and understanding of this research will assist users to know actually that through this practice ( birth registration system) that Nations economy is evenly spread and effectively utilized and the social planning for essential amenities is distributed to every individual’s satisfaction.

          This project will go further to explain the sources through which data are collected for the act and also how the exercise vested solely on the national population commission with the planning of it’s staff in all health institution across the nation.

RECOMMENDATION

Recommendations on how best to organize and bring better changes in order to improve the act of birth registration in the nation. With the aid of a computerized system there will be emphasis on the research so as to give birth registration a more sophisticated approach at the end.

ORGANIZATION OF WORK

The research work on birth registration is carefully organized for the orderly usage by its users, this organization is done using chapters specifications, with each of the chapter having being such divided into units  for future explanation and understanding.

Chapter one tends to introduce the theme with the aim of identifying the problems encountered during the process of birth registration system also are its purpose of study, scope assumption as well as the definition of terms that are use work.

While chapter two takes a look at the literature review of the research.

Chapter three on the other hand tries to describe and analyze the existing system, the facts and findings method, objectives and problems that are likely to be faced by the existing system.

In chapter four, the design of the new system is carried out while chapter five implement the new system with chapter six giving a documentary account of the new system.

Finally chapter seven recommends and concludes the work.

CHAPTER ONE

  1. INTRODUCTION

It is quite obvious to note that the rate at which computer technology is changing the world to a global village is actually affecting all levels of human endeavor, it is also quite interesting that computer technology impact is really touching all professions giving each a drastic change in terms of enhancing their various services, increasing their productivity and further, making them to be easy and cheap both in learning and implementing.

However, in medicine field today, doctors are not bold and proud to attain to their patients without stress assistance of an expert system, Expert system being a software program, which had been already prepared by an experienced, and qualified doctor, is specially designed for doctors who do not have much experience an expert system, doctor can diagnosis store and retrieve information about a patient as well as learn more on their profession

The study of birth system is of immense importance to the nation, with the objective of keeping track of the newly born babies serving as a monitor and regulatory machine to check the mistakes associated in issuing birth certificate.
