RESEARCH OF METHODS OF AUTOMATED MANAGEMENT OF REGISTRATION OF PEOPLE IN THE ROOM

Abstract

The article studies the methods of registering people, which form the basis of modern access control systems. These systems are designed to personalize and regulate access to premises with restricted entry. They ensure that only authorized personnel or individuals with specific permissions can enter certain areas, thereby enhancing security and minimizing unauthorized access risks.

The foundation of such systems lies in the use of a complex of interconnected equipment and software that together manage identification processes and access control mechanisms. These systems are broadly classified into two main types: autonomous and networked. Autonomous systems function independently, without requiring a central control unit, making them simpler and more reliable for smaller-scale implementations. In contrast, networked systems operate under centralized control, allowing for seamless integration with broader security infrastructure and providing enhanced monitoring and reporting capabilities.

The article examines the specific features of each type of access control system, analyzing their advantages and disadvantages. Autonomous systems are typically easier to install and maintain but may lack the scalability and flexibility of networked solutions. Networked systems, on the other hand, offer better management options and integration with other security measures, yet they require more complex deployment and ongoing support.

Additionally, the article reviews the leading global manufacturers supplying such systems, presenting an analysis of their key operational features, strengths, and weaknesses. Various architectures used in the development of access control software are also considered. These architectures generally fall into two categories: monolithic and microservice-based.

Monolithic architectures, though simpler and more straightforward, can pose scalability challenges, whereas microservice-based architectures allow for greater flexibility and modularity. The article explores the algorithms underlying these architectures, their respective benefits and drawbacks, and provides a comparative analysis of their effectiveness in real-world applications.
