GMR Institute of Technology (GMRIT) | Regulation 2016

c. Continuous Assessment Marks will be awarded on the basis of Continuous Evaluation


made during the semester
d. The letter grade and the grade points are awarded based on the hybrid grading system
having earned grades and awarded grades. Grading is done based on the percentage of
marks secured by a candidate in individual course as detailed below:

Range of Percentage of Letter Qualitative Grade


Marks Grade Meaning Point
90-100 A+ Outstanding 10 Earned grade
85-89 A Excellent 9 Earned grade
Due to relative grading B+ Very Good 8 Awarded grade

marks may vary for each C+ Average 6 Awarded grade
course based on the C Satisfactory 5 Awarded grade
normal distribution of
Awarded grade
marks D Pass 4
< 40 for theory and
Earned grade
< 50 for Lab F Fail 0

e. After completion of the Programme, the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) from
the I Semester to IV Semester is calculated using the formula:
∑ 
  ×
 =
∑ 
 
Where n is the number of courses registered for, ‘ci’ is the credits allotted to the given
course and ‘gi’ is the grade point secured in the corresponding course.

5.1. Continuous Assessment Pattern for all Courses

a. Theory Course
Out of 40 marks allotted for continuous assessment 30 marks will be awarded
based on two tests conducted and10 marks shall be awarded based on conduct of
one comprehensive test as given below:
Internal Test 1 & Test 2 : 30 Marks (80 % of marks secured in 1st best internal
tests and 20% marks secured in 2nd best internal test)
Comprehensive Test : 10 Marks
• The duration of each internal test will be 90 minutes and shall covers two
units of syllabus in each test
• Two sessional examinations shall be conducted at the end of the 8th & 17th
week of the semester respectively
• All the students will be notified with the marks secured within one week
after the completion of the sessional exams

web pages developed in week-1 and week-2 in the document root.
8. User Authentication:
Assume four users user1, user2, user3, user4 having the passwords pwd1, pwd2, pwd3, pwd4
respectively. Write a servlet for doing the following.
1. Create a Cookie and add these four user id’s and passwords to this Cookie.
2. Read the user id and passwords entered in the Login form (week-1) and authenticate with the values
(user id and passwords) available in the Cookies.
9. Install a database (Mysql or Oracle). Create a table which should contain at least the following fields:
name password, email-id, phone number (these should hold the data from the registration form).
Practice ‘JDBC’ connectivity.
Write a java program/servlet/JSP to connect to that database and extract data from the tables and
display them. Experiment with various SQL queries.
Insert the details of the users who register with the website, whenever a new user clicks the submit
button in the registration page (week-2).
10. Write a JSP which does the following job: Insert the details of the 3 or 4 users who register with the
website (week-9) by using registration form. Authenticate the user when he submits the login form
using the username and password from the database (similar to week-8 instead of Cookies).
11. Create tables in the database which contain the details of items (books in our case like Book name,
Price, Quantity, Amount) of each category. Modify your catalogue page (week-2) in such a way that
you should connect to the database and extract data from the tables and display them in the catalogue
page using JDBC.

cart from the catalogue page. He can check the cart page for the selected items. He may visit the

15
Department of Computer Science and Engineering, GMR Institute of Technology (GMRIT) | Regulation 2016

catalogue again and select some more items. Here our interest is the selected items should be added to
the old cart rather than a new cart. Multiple users can do the same thing at a time (i.e., from different
systems in the LAN using the ip-address instead of localhost). This can be achieved through the use of
sessions. Every user will have his own session which will be created after his successful login to the
website. When the user logs out his session should get invalidated (by using the method session
invalidate ()).
Modify your catalogue and cart JSP pages to achieve the above mentioned functionality using sessions.
