Resumo:
The proposed of this work is to develop an automation system for restaurants using
Personal Digital Assistant (PDAs). The proposed system is composed of three modules: the
PDA software, used by the waiters to write down the clients order; the cashier’s software
witch manages the sent orders related to the restaurant bar, like soft drinks, juice and beer;
and the kitchen software, witch manages the preparation of restaurant dishes, such as pastes
and pizzas.
In order to write the software Visual Basic 6.0 and emBedded Visual Basic are used. All
restaurant requirements were obtained with a local commercial establishment in the local
market.
The communication between PDAs and the server is done using wireless network
(IEEE802.11b standard).
