    (Bodingbauer, Dannhofer, Lechthaler, Kopf, 2023) Bodingbauer, Julia; Dannhofer, Jana; Lechthaler, Moritz; Kopf, Fabian
    The diploma thesis Smarte Lebensmittelverwaltungsapp – Smood was created within the scope of the A-levels 2023 at the College of Engineering for informatics in Perg. Problem Very few people are aware of what food is stored in their homes. This is problematic in relation to the expiration date of the food. A lot of food is thrown away simply because it has expired. A lot of resources are wasted due to food waste. The aim of the diploma thesis is to provide an overview into the food household. The app should inform the user which products will expire in the near future or which products are already at home, so that the user has the chance to consume the products before they go bad. Furthermore, with the help of our app, we want to draw attention to this problem by creating awareness among Austrians about food waste. In addition, a shopping list will help users to buy only the necessary products they need. Implementation The basis for the implementation of Smood is a Linux server, which is located in the network of the HTL Perg. This server hosts a MySQL database and a REST API, which is implemented in Java. With the help of this interface, data can be provided for the app. However, it should be noted that this app can only be used on Android mobile phones. Furthermore, an algorithm has been developed based on individual user data. Based on the information, a shopping list is automatically generated and made available to the user. The algorithm is capable of continuously adapting to users' shopping habits and optimizing them. In this way, users can plan purchases in a targeted manner and only buy what they really need.
