Abstract

Invigilation is an integral part of education and as education has evolved from conventional paper based methods to on-line ones, and so have the methods of invigilation. Major examinations are now online like TOEFL, GRE etc. But even with the assessment going online, invigilation still remains a manual affair; still officials have to be deployed on testing locations. Also in case of e-learning solutions the candidates are evaluated in their personal environment where there are no manual invigilators, thus a proper approach for online invigilation must be there. This paper aims to propose an invigilation model to automate the process and a tool for the same while taking into consideration the various constraints that come into picture for the specific scenario.
