OBJECTIVES
 OBJECTIVES

The primary aim of the Online Notice board Software project is to create a fully
functional digital notice board system which will efficiently handle all assigned
tasks. This online Notice Board Application will help many Students as well as the
teachers for regular update regarding to the every event in institute. This is general
product. Each teaching institute can use this program according to their schedule.
So it will helps the students, teachers and indirectly institute with their own site.

 To develop and manage a proper database system to ensure data safety and
proper management.

 To prepare proper and detailed system documentation.

 Notice board online it can be placed on digital devices such computers, tabs,
mobile phones etc.

 The online notice board project all the updates like, add, delete, view are
done by admin, so that user will get the updated current information through
notice board online .

PRELIMINARY SYSTEM ANALYSIS
 PRELIMINARY SYSTEM ANALYSIS

1. Preliminary Investigation

Programming Languages and scripts

o Windows 8. App: XAMPP
o Front end :HTML,Jquery,Boostrap
o Web Application: PHP and CSS
Backend – MySQL

2. Present system in use

The system has two major actors and each actor has its features to carry out as
follows:

Admin :-Admin is the person who controls, monitors and keeps the whole follow
of the system. The main functions of the Admin are:

• To keep and track down the total number of users in the system.

• Can add, activate and deactivate any user.

• Add New Notice and send notice to Registered users

• Display Old Notice and Manage Old notice

• Update Password

Student:-Student is a knowledge seeker, or more theoretical word, a learner. The

student has to be registered and log in into the system before he/she carries out their
functions.

3
• Student Registration

• Login

• Check Notification sent by admin

• Update Profile

• Update Password

• Log out the whole system

3. Flaws in Present System

It is a wasting time and paper also.

To see notice student or user can require themselves, otherwise they will be not
able to see notice.

4. Need of New System

Almost all leading institutions, excepting a few, currently lack an electronic

noticeboard system. Though some have taken the aid of third-party websites like
Facebook to interact, it comes at the cost of mixing one’s social life with
professional. Keeping this in mind, educational institutes will find this software
extremely useful.

The “Online Notice Board System” is a web- based software, with supplementary
application software, that aims to aid the institutes by providing such digital
noticeboard.

5 Feasibility Study

The software is to be developed using PHP, CSS, XAMP and MySQL, which are
all readily available. Also, the team members have sufficient programming and

4
related knowledge which will enable us to learn and adapt to these specific
languages and platforms easily. Thus we can see that the project is technically
feasible.

6. Project Category

Relational database tables are similar to conventional tables; however, relational

database terminology is somewhat different from conventional table and file
terminology. A single row of a table is called a row , tuple , or record , and a column
of a table is called an attribute or field. A single cell in a table is called an attributes
value , field value , or data element. (Refer relation of your project model).

Tools / Platform and Languages to be used.

(Front End ):

PHP: -PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development but
also used as a general-purpose programming language. PHP originally stood for
Personal Home Page, but it now stands for the PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor. PHP
code may be embedded into HTML, or it can be used in combination with various
web template systems, web content management systems and web frameworks.

HTML: -HTML Stands for hypertext mark-up language which is scripting

language and used for web development process. HTML is a Markup Language
which means you use HTML to simply "mark-up" a text document with tags that
tell a Web browser how to structure it to display.

(Backend ):

MySQL: - MySQL is a full-featured relational database management system

(RDBMS) that competes with the likes of Oracle DB and Microsoft’s SQL Server.
A website that uses MySQL may include Web pages that access information from
a database. These pages are often referred to as "dynamic," meaning the content of
each page is generated from a database as the page loads.

5
Technology:

CSS: - CSS is cascading style sheet which is used to give designer look to HTML
using the external file.

Java script: - Java script is used for client side scripting which can help in using
validation on the website and many more other functions.

XAMPP : - XAMPP is a free and open-source cross-platform web server solution

stack package developed by Apache Friends, consisting mainly of the Apache
HTTP Server, MariaDB database, and interpreters for scripts written in the PHP
and Perl programming languages.

Jquery:- jQuery is a fast and concise JavaScript library. jQuery simplifies HTML
document traversing, event handling, animating, and Ajax interactions for Rapid
Web Development.

Bootstrap:-Bootstrap themes also feature various UI components and page layouts

that can be employed to create websites. You can think of them as website
templates created with Bootstrap in mind.

user.

 User Registration: This screen gives the facility to register any new user
to the system.

 Post screen: This screen gives the facility to registered user or Admin to
post new notice on the board.

 Detail Screen: View all the existing notices with the respective user /
admin.

 Edit Page: This page gives the facility to the Admin to delete user as well
as any notice permanently.

 Feedback Page : This page displays the experiences of the student while
taking the course from the site. It also contains a feedback form to get the
views of the user on the site.

Every module and sub module made, based on their Functionality. These module
are designed and implemented separately and then they are integrated together to
form the desired application

1. Registering User :-
The first step in this application is to get the user register to both web server
and remote user will be provide all the necessary detail and press the register
button. The request will first go to google cloud messaging server.
2. User Login:-
The User is allowed to login. User name and password after validating at
client side, is send to server side authentication. After authentication
respond is sent by the server to client and then user get logged in.
3. Viewing the Notice:-
The case all previous notice fetched from application own database stored
inside client mobile. If then check for new notice from the server. If there
are new notice on the server it will fetch all those notice.
4. Deleting a Notice :-

 TESTING & VALIDATION CHECKS

Testing &Validation Checks:-

A test plan can be defined as a document describing the scope, approach, resources,
and schedule of intended testing activities. It identifies test items, the feature to be
tested, the testing tasks, who will do each task, and any risks requiring contingency
planning. In software testing, a test plan gives detailed testing information
regarding an testing effort, including it is also be describe as a detail of how the
testing will proceed, who will be tested, in how much time the test will take place,
and to what quality level the will be performed.

The process of defining a test project so that it can be properly measured and
controlled. The test planning process generates a high level test plan document that
identifies the software items to be tested, the degree of tester independence, the test
environment, the test case design and test measurement techniques to be used, and
the rationale for their choice.

Test plan is a document which includes, introduction, assumption, list of test cases,
list of features to be tested, approach, deliverables, resource, risks and scheduling.
A test plan is a systematic approach to testing a system such as a machine or
software.

Any application is unless without validation. There should be a way to validate the
user input first before sending the user request to the server. Following are the
validation implemented in proposed system :

 User Password Validation :

The application should check the user and password fields before sending
any request to the server. It should check whether the fields are filed nor
not. If fields are not filled up, user should be instructed to fill up the fields
before moving further. In this way, there will be less traffic on the server.

33
 Validation During Registration :

There are lot of validation that needs to be implemented in the application.

They are as follows :
1. First and Last Name of User
2. Username
3. Password
4. Email
5. Mobile Number

 Validating During Posting Notices :

The application should validate the notices posting fields before posting any
notice. It should check whether title and description fields are filled or not,
it should tell the user to fill up the required fields while posting the notices.

 Reset Password Validation :

The application should check that user has entered the username or email in
the given filed before pressing the reset password button.

SYSTEM SECURITY
MEASURES

33
 SYSTEM SECURITY MEASURES

System Security Measures

There should be Security of the communication between the system and server. The
messages should be encrypted for log-in communication, so others cannot get user
name and password from those message. Every exchanged of information between
client and server should be encrypted so that no one track it. Therefore, the four
measures part of security in system are as follows :

 Admin Login Account Security :

If an admin in tries to log in to the web portal with a non-existing account

then the admin should not be logged in. The admin should be notified about
log-in failure.

 Admin Account Security :

There should be security of admin accounts. An admin and IP address

should not be able to log-in to the web portal for a certain time period after
times of failed log-in attempts.

 User Create Account Security:

The security of creating account for users of the system should be

maintained. If a user wants to create an account and the desired user name
is occupied, the user should be asked to choose a different username.
IMPLEMENTATION,

 IMPLEMENTATION, EVALUATION AND MAINTENANCE
Implementation :

This section presents a discussion on how feedback from the users was obtained and interpreted.
It develop a prototype website based notice board, the software program was selected. This is an
open source web server and servlet container developed by the apache software foundation that is
used to develop and run web applications. All the back end server scripts were written in the
programming language java and a mysql database system was used to store notice information.
The website front end was developed using cascading style sheets (CSS), HTML and HTML5.
The technologies available, server software and programming language to develop a website is
always an area of concern. Even more, implementing an online notice board requires more than
just a fast accessible website, but also, one that supports concurrent views, and changes to the
notice board.

Evaluation:

Users were asked to use this website to post and view online notices in electronic picture format.
An online and face-to-face survey was then carried out to determine the views of different users
upon using the website and how the general idea of implementing an online notice board was
responded to. This was aimed at two different groups that were going to be directly involved in
the notice cycle process: the notice viewers (users), as well as the notice posters (administrators).
Their experiences and opinions in the testing of the prototype were equally important in evaluating
the transition idea.

Maintenance:

On the other hand, a location based and physical notice board does not raise such demands. Instead,
the concerns here are ensuring that it is properly positioned and that certain authorized individuals
are responsible for the board maintenance. Adding the website based model to currently available
models can only extend the scope of users that can be reached. The upload form below also allows
the user to specify the date until which the notice. This is the upload interface that can be used to
post notices online.

FUTURE SCOPE OF THE
PROJECT
 FUTURE SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

Future Scope of the project

 We can provide sms based integration for registration confirmation. Email based
confirmation to provide approval confirmation.
 Send results as an email to registered students and send sms alerts whenever results
are sent to email or updated by an admin .Alerting module can be worked out in
future.
 Online fees payment for registered students with payment gateway integration.
 We can develop a comprehensive timetable module which will automat complete
process of generating a time table online.

Our project would be feasible for all the educational institutes for conveying their
messages to the students and faculty members. This software would help them to
avoid the inconvenience. The basic facility provided by this project would be
immediate display of latest information on education related policies and events.
The database of his project would basically contain the details about college and
academic and other necessary notices. This database would need to be updated with
time.

 SUGGESTION AND CONCLUSION

Suggestion

 A web-based online noticeboard system

 Proper system documentation

Conclusion

The alternate approach of a web based notice board proves ideal in solving these problems.
Portability and time specificity are not the only features carried by this model; its plausible
elasticity implies that more notices can be served to the users and there exists the options of storing
older notices, an option lacking in the localized model. In all the web-based model appears to
maximise the potential of notice boards. However, considering the fact that several weaknesses
can be pinpointed in both models, it is advisable that both models be used. A balance of these two
models may win interest from individuals who are unhappy with the localized model without
loosing users who were finding it satisfactory and convenient.

 Avoid grumbling in considers instead come, ask and discuss and where possible issues and
notice board.
 Expose your student to concerts and other activities motivation program are display.
 About updates emails are sent matter of concern is personal.
