Question

In regards to modern operating systems If you are asked to design a hotel check-in system that has three steps, what would you like to propose? If you are asked to detail your previous design so that it has five steps, how would you update it and why? If you are asked to propose a hotel check-in system without any limitation in steps, what would it be and why?

Answer 1

Modern Operating Systems:

• I think the three steps that I would like to propose for the check-in system would be:
  • Recording Check-in details of the customer.
  • Recording the luggage and belongings of the customer.
  • Checkout and Billing of the customer.
• I believe these are the three steps to which the operating system must get upgraded. If we need a five-step system than we must break down these three steps and also will be able to gather more details about the customers to avoid fraud and other things.
• So, the five steps that would be involved in the previous design are as follows:
  • Recording Details of the customer.
  • Recording Check-in details of the customer
  • Recording the luggage and belongings of the customer
  • Recording the need of the customer for the stay
  • Checkout and Billing of the customer
• These are the five steps which will add more information to the customers so that there is more data with the hotel of the customer staying with them. In case of any bad things happening with the customer, it can be identified with the help of such information.
• The check-in system without any limitations in steps would be a great idea but it would increase the size of the data due to which the requirements of running the operating system will alter and also there would be more requirement of certain hardware.
• Also, along with the hardware requirements, the software of the system will also be compromised and more security will be required. Although it will be a good option for the hotel as they will be getting more information and also will be able to analyze the data later on.
• The steps can be infinite as there can be different requirements of each hotel depending on the customers they get and what kind of customers they get. There are different ways to look at the system as the requirement of the customer and even the owner of the hotel may change from place to place.

Hence, this is the approach in building a hotel check-in system without any limitation in steps.
