This report presents brief detail of the project based for a task or event viewer via Android mobile application to be developed as part of University Malaysia Pahang (UMP) final year project. The aim of this project is to develop an Android-based mobile application that can provide information delivery from one device to another.

Besides, there are two types of tool used for this project which are Eclipse SDK and WampServer. Eclipse SDK is used to run the source code of Android Java programming whereby WampServer is used to design the database of the project. The results from this project would be an integrated system which capable of receiving input from lecturers through the mobile application, manipulating the received data and outputting them to students in a graphical form via the mobile application installed on their smart phone.
