Using Oracle APEX to Solve Meetings Issues

Yasir Alhadeethi, CIS 494: Undergraduate Research in CIS Faculty Mentor: Professor Sarbani Banerjee, Computer Information Systems In this research project, Oracle Application Express (APEX) was used. APEX is a low-code development platform that enables one to build scalable, secure enterprise apps, with world-class features, which can be deployed anywhere. Oracle Application Express enables users to design, develop, and deploy responsive database-driven applications, either on-premises or in the cloud. Corporate meetings often can be overwhelming when they lack documentation. Searching for files for each meeting can take up unnecessary time due to lack of organization. This project aims to provide a better environment for efficient collaborations, and better facilitation among project team members. The APEX application for this research is used to store data from meetings, including agenda, meeting organizer, assigned presenters, and other attendees. This application contains specific details such as name, description, start and end times, location, presenters, attendees, attachments, action items, decisions, and notes. The user can click a tab and the data about the meetings is then e-mailed to participants using an Oracle client. My project uses a database to store details and information that will be entered and created by future users of the application. This action will be deployed by using database objects like Tables, Views, Indexes, SQL Queries, Shell Scripts, as well as SQL Scripts. My application will prevent users from losing documentations and missing important details of each meeting, thereby enhancing efficient communication.
