Digital Educational Institute Management System: A Comprehensive Literature Review on Modern Web-Based Academic and Administrative Architectures
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Web-Based Educational Management Systems

Abstract
Educational institutions manage many connected administrative and academic activities, including student admissions, personal records, course allocation, attendance tracking, fee invoicing, assignments, examinations, and official announcements. In conventional setups, these activities are commonly recorded in separate registers or standalone spreadsheets, requiring staff to enter identical information repeatedly and creating severe difficulties in obtaining an integrated, real-time view of student status. The Digital Educational Institute Management System (DEIMS) is proposed as a centralized, web-based platform that unites administrators, teachers, and students through dedicated, authenticated role-based dashboards. This paper presents a rigorous literature review focusing strictly on recent state-of-the-art research published within the last three years (2024–2026), evaluating twenty contemporary empirical studies across campus automation, role-based access control (RBAC), and relational database performance. We identify critical research gaps concerning data fragmentation, expensive enterprise architectures, and weak authorization controls in collegiate software. To resolve these challenges, we detail the complete engineering design of DEIMS, specifying its 3-tier architecture, component frontend (React/TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui), backend logic (Python Flask / RESTful services), database connectivity (PostgreSQL/Supabase & MySQL with connection pooling and ACID compliance), 3NF normalized schema, and hardware/software environment requirements. This review establishes an authoritative reference for campus management automation in technical polytechnics.
