Feasibility Study
What are the user’s demonstrable needs?
User needs a web-based system, which will remove all the above-mentioned
Problems that, the user is facing. The user wants a web-based system, which
will reduce the bulk of paperwork, provide ease of work, flexibility, fast
record finding, modifying, adding, removing and generating the reports.
How can the problem be redefined?
We proposed our perception of the system, in accordance with the problems
of existing system by making a full layout of the system on paper. We tallied
the problems and needs by existing system and requirements. We were further
updating in the layout in the basis of redefined the problems. In feasibility
study phase we had undergone through various steps, which are described as
under:
How feasible is the system proposed? This was analyzed by comparing the
following
factors with both the existing system and proposed system.
Cost
The cost required in the proposed system is comparatively less to the existing
system.
Effort
Compared to the existing system the proposed system will provide a better
working environment in which their will be ease of work and the effort
required will be comparatively less than the existing system.
Time
Also the time required generating a report or for doing any other work will be
comparatively very less than in the existing system. Record finding and
updating will take less time than the existing system.
Labor
In the existing system the number of staff required for completing the work is
more
while the new system will require quite less number of staff.

Specification Report
System Interface
Application would be a self-contained system. It will not access data of any
other application nor will other application have access to its data.
User Interface
Application will be accessed through a Browser Interface. The interface
would be viewed best using 1024 x 768 and 800 x 600 pixels resolution
setting. The software would be fully compatible with Microsoft Internet
Explorer for version 6 and above. No user would be able to access any part of
the application without logging on to the system.
Hardware Interface
For Server
• Intel Pentium III or above with
• 512 MB RAM
• 4 GB hard disk
• Network Interface
For Client
• PC With
• 256 MB RAM
• Network Interface
Software Interface
For Server For Client
• Windows 2000 Enterprise
Edition
• WAS Server
• DB2 Server
• Windows 95/98/2000/NT
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 6
& above

Online Examination
Communication Interface
The system should be accessed over LAN or WAN. For Clients to access
application server the network should be running TCP/IP protocol.
Operations
Client Side
Interactive operations using options provided in the application, Example Data
Entry generation and viewing of reports.
Server Side
Database backup should be taken every day. In case of data base crash, last
backup should be restored.
User Characteristics
The end user of the software can be divided into two categories
Administrator: Access to master forms for the purpose of data entry and
generation of reports.
Operator: Access to his corresponding records and giving examination only.

Online Examination
Bottlenecks Identified in Existing System
The first problem is that there are loads of hard copied documents being
generated. This brings us to the age-old discussion of keeping information in
the form databases versus keeping the same on sheets of paper. Keeping the
information in the form of hard-copied documents leads to the following
problems:
I. Lack of space – It becomes a problem in itself to find space to keep the
sheets of paper being generated as a result of the ongoing discussion. The
documents being generated are too important to be ill-treated.
ii. Filing poses a problem – Filing the documents categorically is a time
consuming and tedious exercise.
iii. Filtering is not easy – It becomes hard to filter relevant documents for the
irrelevant ones if the count of the same crosses a certain manageable number.
iv. Reviewing becomes time-consuming –
All the process done manually at the centers and all the records are maintained
on the papers. So the maintenance of the record is very difficult in the
departments and as well as it’s very difficult for the workers to check the
record. The Existing system is paper based, time consuming, monotonous, less
flexible and provides a very hectic working schedule. The chance of loss of
records is high and also record searching is difficult. Maintenance of the
system is also very difficult and takes lot of time.
v. Result Processing is slow due to paper work and requirement of staff.

Online Examination
Need for the New System
To solve these problems they required a computerized system to handle all the
works. They required a web based application that will provide a working
environment that will be flexible and will provide ease of work and will
reduce the time for report generation and other paper works.
Aims and Objective
The main purpose behind the proposed system is to provide a comprehensive
computerized system, which can capture, collate and analyze the data from
these wards and evaluate the impact of the program.
Constraints, Assumptions, Dependencies
Constraints
As this system is based on client server technology, so for normal operation
minimum of 64 MB RAM will be required on all clients.
Assumptions
In general it has been assumed that the user has complete knowledge of the
system that means user is not a naïve user. Any data entered by him/her will
be valid. To make the software as user friendly as possible but at the same
time keeping in minds user requirements.
• Server OS should be Windows NT/2000/XP.
• Client PC should be Windows 9X/NT/WorkStation or Windows 2000
with latest service pack.
Dependencies
It depends that the one should follow the international standards for the
generating the User ID & should fill the related information in the proper
format.

Online Examination
Software System Attributes
Usability: The links are provided for each form. The user is facilitated to
view and make entries in the forms. Validations are provided in each field to
avoid inconsistent or invalid entry in the databases. Some forms consists
Hyper Links, which provides further details. Reports screen contains text
boxes and drop down lists, so that reports can be produced.
Security: Application will allow only valid users to access the system.
Access to any application resource will depend upon user’s designation. There
are two types of users namely Administrator and Student. Security is based
upon the individual user ID and Password.
Maintainability: The installation and operation manual of examination
management system will be provided to the user.
Availability: System will be available around the clock except for the time
required for the back up of data.
Portability: The application is developed in ASP.NET. It would be
portable to other operating system provided .NET Framework is available for
the OS. As the database is made in DB2, porting the database to another
database server would require some development effort.
Acceptance Criteria
The software should meet the functional requirement and perform the
functionality effectively and efficiently.
• A user-friendly interface with proper menus.
• Data transfer should be accurate and with in a reasonable amount of
time keeping in mind the network traffic.
• The system should not allow entry of duplicate key values.
• System should have the ability to generate transactional Logs to avoid
any accidental loss of data.
• Log file should also be generated.
