Introduction
We are developing this Final Year Project Management System for Buraq Institute of Science and Technology !urrently they are using the file system" they are doing everything manually That is #hy they #ant to have an automated system Solution of this #e propose a proper management system to handle this event from start to end It #ill $eep all the steps of a project assigning" development" evaluation" reporting and analysis There #ill a proper report generation process too Then at the end you can analy%e the overall report of all projects of the year

1.1

Overview
The system is designed and developed $eeping in vie# that it should &e user friendly" 'avigation should &e easy" and it should have good support in the process of uploading projects &y supervisors and selection of projects &y groups This system automatically assign the project to the student #ho come first and apply for that so no &iasness #ill &e there and store the information in the data&ase and also provides the employer has the facility of querying the data&ase The Interface of the system is developed $eeping in mind that it should &e good loo$ing" attract at first sight" easy to understand and self(e)planatory The system is also equipped #ith state of security features" #hich ena&les only the authori%ed people to vie# or modify the sensitive information The information is protected &y login and pass#ord" #hich can &e assigned to each user of system

1.1.1 Front %nd &iew

The supervisor #ill &e a&le to post the projects on the system of a specific domain #hich #ill &e displayed on the system

Software requirement Specification for FYPMS The students #ill &e a&le to see them and apply for that project once the group had applied for that the selection of project for group is no longer displayed to that specific group 'e# forms #ill &e displayed #hich contain progress of the groups and their personal information of each mem&er and mar$s evaluation.

1.1.2 'uerying on t"e system

Supervisor can query on the groups to see that #hich group or mem&ers had selected his*her project +irector had the rights to query to find out that ho# many projects are reserved of specific supervisor

1.2

Purpose
The purpose of this project is to automate all the manual phases of Final Year Project from Initial phase of proposed projects &y the supervisors to the evaluation phase" &ecause I II III I-I It is totally manual It is consuming more time It is producing queries a&out Project selection" group,s selection 'o proper record of progress of groups is maintaining It does not have proper records of supervisors and groups information There are many queries a&out different issues of projects evaluation

1.2.1

Proposed Solution
.s the system is manually #or$ing right no#" so there is lac$ of security for the

updates and lac$ of authentication for the provided information Final Year Project Management System #ill overcome these hurdles &y providing proper security and authentication of provided information through a proper login system

Software requirement Specification for FYPMS

1.2.1

PR(P(S%) SYS*%M +(MP(,%,*S Final Year Project Management and /valuation System consists of the follo#ing components0 Project Posting
System on #hich the projects #ill &e posted &y supervisor and their respected information is saved in data&ase so that it maintain record

Management of users and projects

The profiles of the users i e groups" supervisors #ill &e maintained in the &ac$end data&ase &y administration through #hich user #ill login every time they visit the system .dministration can update the record as #ell

Project Selection
.fter uploading the project &y supervisor the group can log in and select from list of projects #hich they #ant and only those projects #ill &e sho#n to groups #hich have no group assigned to them

'uerying on t"e projects -groups-super.isors-domain

+irector #ill &e a&le to query the data&ase #ith a specific criteria in order to search for the projects" groups and supervisors &ased on their performance in final year projects

Scope
The scope of a system means that #hich areas are &eing covered &y the system The scope clearly defines the &oundaries of the proposed system The functional area of this application that lies under the scope of proposed system is the management of project list updating and management of project" offering" selection" evaluation and the management of querying process for the search of group performance or supervisor performance

to #ait for a supervisor if he is not in university or going into supervisor rooms for meetings

The group can select their final year project on a clic$ of a mouse so that no need

=nce a group selected their project #ith specific supervisor their supervisor can update their progress so that it differentiates them from others if they are hard#or$ing students =n other hand supervisor can update project list of their domains so that groups can apply for that project and supervisor can update progress of groups .dministration can create users i e supervisors" students" groups so that they can log in to the system using their id and pass#ord
