Oracle

2. PROFILE OF THE PROBLEM

I have to create a web based graphical user interface (platform independent and user friendly)

which can be fitted into any college system. As you know there are Thousands of college and

schools in a city, and there are lakhs of students who came around the works to learn and study.

So every college would like to collect all information of Students. The system should provide the

detail structure of the college campus and its departments. College Management

System synchronizes the working of all the departments. It should looks on all aspects of a

college, its students, Departments, marks and other co – curricular activities.

College management system should include following features:-

About college itself

Courses offered

Latest updates

About placement

Student fee management

Student result management

Student batch and program management

Different type of user should include:

Student

Admin

3. EXISTING SYSTEM

2

Today in college’s student details are entered manually. The student details in separate records

are tedious task. Referring to all these records and updating is needed. There is a chance for more

manual errors.

Problems in existing system:

It was limited to a single system.

It was less user friendly.

It have lots of manual work, which also include working on spreadsheets and other

softwares.

It requires more no of employee for work

It was time consuming process.

Solution to these problems:

The development of the new system contains the following activities, which try to

automate the entire process keeping in view of the database integration approach

User friendliness is provided in the application with various controls.

The system makes the overall projects management much easier and flexible.

It can be accessed over the Internet.

4. PROBLEM ANALYSIS

Analysis is a detailed study of the various operation performed by the system and their

relationship within and outside of the system. A key question what must be done to solve the

problems during analysis data collected on the available files decision pioneers and transaction

handled by the present system.

PRODUCT DEFINITION

3

The problem is to provide the complete information about the college campus. In which the

college, students and parents can access the information and will be familiar with college

campus. It will provide interactive environment for the staff, students and parents by getting

knowledge of student, fees, exams performances etc.

The College management system is an automated version of manual Student Management

System. It can handle all details about a student. The details include college details, subject

details, student personnel details, academic details, exam details etc... In case of manual system

they need a lot of time, manpower etc.Here almost all work is computerized. So the accuracy is

maintained. Maintaining backup is very easy. It can do within a few minutes. Our system has

two type of accessing modes, administrator and user. Student management system is managed by

an administrator. It is the job of the administrator to insert update and monitor the whole process.

When a user log into the system. He would only view details of the student. He can't perform any

changes.

FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS:-

After studying all the problem solution for the College feasible solution was decided on the basis

of:

HARDWARE FEASIBILITY

This project needs one computer with core 2 duo or higher processors. The memory

requirement is 3GB RAM ,higer will also do. This is very feasible in this perspective.

SOFTWARE FEASIBILITY

This project can be loaded on any of the system having any of the Windows operating

system.

OPERATIONAL FEASIBILITY

4

The project is easy to maintain and use. So there is no need of special training for the

maintenance staff. There will be no resistance from the user side.

TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY

Points in concern with the technical feasibility of our proposed system-

The technology i.e. hardware and software which we have used is normally available.

It is easy to implement.

Our system is capable for up gradation account to users demand within the budget.

Since our system proposes all the necessary technical resources so it is technically

feasible.

The system is easy to maintain and very attractive for user.

We can strongly says that it is technically feasible, since there will not be much difficulty in

getting required resources for the development and maintaining the system as well. All the

resources needed for the development of the software as well as the maintenance of the same

is available in the organization here we are utilizing the resources which are available

already.

ECONOMICAL FEASIBILITY

Development of this application is highly economically feasible .The organization needed not

spend much money for the development of t he system already available. The only thing is to

be done is making an environment for the development with an effective supervision. I f we

are doing so , we can attain the maximum usability of the corresponding resources .Even

after the development , the organization will not be in condition to invest more in t he

organization .Therefore , the system is economically feasible.

Hardware and software cost evolved is not too costly.

The technology used for the implementing the system is not expensive

5. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT ANALYIS

5

Minimum software requirement for project

FRONT END: PHP

BACK END: MYSQL

Core 2 duo or higher

256 Mb RAM or higher will do

Network Connections with 100 Mbps transfer rate

Server to control the database to be maintained by software.

1 Mb cache memory

My sql

6. DESIGN

The most creative and challenging face of the system life cycle is system design. The term

design describes a final system and the process by which it is developed. The first step is to

determine how the output is to be produced and in what format.

10. PROJECT LEGACY

TECHNICAL LESSON LEARNT:

During this project I have learnt about :

Html

Css

Php

Mysql

Developing a Web Database Application Using PHP and MySQL

HTML:

HTML is a language for describing web pages.

HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language

44

HTML is not a programming language, it is a markup language

A markup language is a set of markup tags

HTML uses markup tags to describe web pages

When you save an HTML file, you can use either the .htm or the .html extension. We

use .htm in our examples. It is a habit from the past, when the software only allowed three

letters in file extensions.

With new software it is perfectly safe to use .html.

CSS:

Cascading style sheet enable us to precisely control the formatting of element on our

webpages.Html was designed to control the structure of our web pages, such as headings,

images, links, paragraphs and tables. Style sheets were designed to control the formatting of

these elements in far greater detail than the HTML commands allow. Styles are the rules that

define how the elements appear in web pages such as font and color.

Three types of css: -

1. Inline

2. Internal

3. External

PHP:

Hypertext Preprocessor. In its early development by a guy named Rasmus Lerdorf, it was called

Personal Home Page tools. When it developed into a full-blown language, the name was

changed to be more inline with its expanded functionality. The PHP language’s is known as shell

scripting language

PHP is actually simpler than because it doesn’t use some of the more difficult concepts of C.

PHP also doesn’t include the low-level programming capabilities of C because PHP is designed

45

to program Web sites and doesn’t require those capabilities.PHP is particularly strong in its

ability to interact with databases.

PHP support every database we’ve ever heard of (and some we haven’t). PHP handles

connecting to the database and communicating with it.

PHP is an embedded scripting language when used in Web pages. This means that PHP code is

embedded in HTML code. WE use HTML tags to enclose the PHP language that WE embed in

our HTML file — the same way that WE would use other HTML tags. WE create and edit Web

pages containing PHP the same way that WE create and edit regular HTML pages.

MYSQL:

MySQL is a fast, easy-to-use RDBMS used on many Web sites. Speed was the developers’ main

focus from the beginning. In the interest of speed, they made the decision to offer fewer features

than their major competitors (such as Oracle and Sybase). However, even though MySQL is less

full-featured than its commercial competitors, it has all the features needed by the majority of

database developers. It’s easier to install and use than its commercial competitors, and the

difference in price is strongly in MySQL’s favor.

MySQL is developed, marketed, and supported by MySQL AB, which is a Swedish company.

MySQL is a popular database with Web developers. Its speed and small size make it ideal for a

Web site. Add to that the fact that it’s open source, which means free, and WE have the

foundation of its popularity. Here is a rundown of some of its advantages:

It’s fast. The main goal of the folks who developed MySQL was speed. Thus, the

software was designed from the beginning with speed in mind.

It’s inexpensive. MySQL is free under the open source GPL license, and the fee for a

commercial license is reasonable.

It’s easy to use. WE can build and interact with a MySQL database by using a few

simple statements in the SQL language, which is the standard language for

46

communicating with RDBMSs. Check out Chapter 4 for the lowdown on the SQL

language.

DEVELOPING A WEB BASED APPLICATION USING PHP AND MYSQL

The PHP software works with the Web server. The Web server is the software that delivers Web

pages to the world. When we type a URL into our Web browser, we are sending a message to the

Web server at that URL, asking it to send an HTML file. The Web server responds by sending

the requested file. Web browser reads the HTML file and displays the Web page. We also

request the Web server to send web a file when we click a link in a Web page.

In addition, the Web server processes a file when WE click a Web page button that submits a

form. When PHP is installed, the Web server is configured to expect certain file extensions to

contain PHP language statements. Often the extension is .php or .phtml, but any extension can be

used. When the Web server gets a request for a file with the designated extension, it sends the

HTML statements as-it-is. But PHP statements are processed by the PHP software before they’re

sent to the requester.

When PHP language statements are processed, only the output is sent by the Web server to the

Web browser. The PHP language statements are not included in the output sent to the browser,

so the PHP code is secure and transparent to the user. user’s browser. The browser interprets the

statement as HTML code and displays a Web page with one paragraph — hello World. The PHP

statement is not delivered to the browser, so the user never sees any PHP statements. PHP and

the Web server must work closely together.

MANAGERIAL LESSON LEARNT:

The College management system is an automated version of manual Student Management

System. It can handle all details about a student. The details include college details, subject

details, student personnel details, academic details, exam details etc... In case of manual system

they need a lot of time, manpower etc.Here almost all work is computerized. So the accuracy is

maintained. Maintaining backup is very easy. It can do wit in a few minutes. Our system has two

type of accessing modes, administrator and user. Student management system is managed by an

administrator. It is the job of the administrator to insert update and monitor the whole process.

When a user will login to the system. He would only view details of the student. He can't

perform any changes.

This System provides one attractive environment where you can manipulate data and information

about students and staff easily. So we can say the Core purpose of designing

“College Management System” is to manage the task related to the college students/employees

and to reduce time to searching of appropriate candidates in college view.

This system is an integrated web application that handles various academic and non academic

activities of a College/Academic Institute. The system can access by every students of the

institution through internet connected computers or internet enabled mobile devices with the aid

of his user name and password. Every user will have a customized home page with his/her

profile management facilities. Through links that displays in the home page the user can access

different options of the website assigned to him/her. Though the system allows access to

everyone there is a significant security risk involved in this project. To tackle this problem we

suggest a modular structure in the proposed system and a complete isolation of the financial and

administrative modules from the public portal. Only trusted IPs can access these modules. Web

services will interact to the financial and administrative modules to fetch necessary information

to display in the public portal. Although a standard password policy will be followed in the

designing of the system to prevent the possibilities of malicious activities of itching users.
