We also identified the project's stakeholders: Ohio NorthernUniversity and their public safety, information technology, and engineering buildings, allowingfor alternative viable solutions to be drafted using constraints provided by our client. Our first viable solution consists of integrating a reservation system with the Pro-Watchsystem installed at Ohio Northern University, abbreviated as ONU, the second consists ofcreating our own software and using similar hardware to what is installed, and the third consistsof creating our own software and purchasing cheaper alternatives to create a

engine for essays can be done at the levels of spelling, grammar, and vocabulary, whereas an engine for short answers must address meaning as a primary concern. From the perspective of computational linguistics, an essay scoring engine is primarily, but not exclusively, an application of computational syntax and stylistics, while a short answer scoring engine is primarily an application of computational semantics. The former fields have the more mature technology [25].A particularly promising means of carrying out the semantic analysis required to ultimatelyprovide automatic feedback to students based on their typed responses is to utilize a fuzzy sentencematching approach within a rule-based NLP algorithm [26].
