Abstract
The purpose of this research was to design and develop a mobile location computer system to monitor the location and emergency alerts for priority groups, in particular, people with disabilities, the elderly and children; through the use of electronic devices, the mobile network and several web technologies. For the analysis of the information and functional requirements of the system, bibliographical and field research was applied. It was applied surveys and interviews to the research group and experts in software design and development, with the aim of validating the functional and non-functional requirements defined for the project. Its implementation will contribute to improve the quality of life of people that belong to the priority group, providing them independence and relaxing because the application can generate alerts to their caregivers in cases of emergencies.
