1.0 Introduction
This document contains the specification of PicFolio, the product to be developed. This product will consist of two components; a blackberry application and a user friendly website. Together, these two parts will act as an internet based photo portfolio. The application for the Blackberry will allow a user to group pictures theyve taken on their phone into albums (which can be named). The application will then allow the user to upload these albums or pictures to their personal photo portfolio. When the pictures are uploaded, they will keep their groupings, or can be reorganized and grouped again. The website can be accessed by a user via the internet using either their phone or a computer with an internet connection. The user will have a unique username and password in order to access their account. A users web page will be customizable, including the permissions to albums and color design of their portfolio web page. The website will be accessible to anyone who has an internet connection and Email address for registration purposes. The phone application will only work for owners of Blackberry mobile phones. Users who do not own a Blackberry will be able to upload photos from their computer to their personal photo portfolio; therefore, making this product available to a wider range of customers.

1.1 Goals and objectives

The goal of PicFolio is to provide an accessible and easy to use photo portfolio. Also, PicFolio plans to provide an easy storage facility for Blackberry users who use their phone as their personal camera. The product will give the user the ability to upload their photos to a safe location before they continue taking more pictures. It will give users the convenience of data archiving without having to stop to download files onto their home computer.

1.2 Statement of scope

The phone application will give the user the option to import pictures previously taken on their Blackberry or take a photo from within the application. The user will also be able to organize their photos into albums and give the albums unique names. Once the user has albums made, he/she will be able to send them to their personal photo portfolio web page where they will be hosted and available for other users of the website to view and comment on. The website will give any person with an internet connection and Email address the chance to register with the website and create their own personal photo portfolio. These users will not necessarily own a Blackberry, but they will have nearly the same functionality through the website as they would through a Blackberry phone. The website will have two login types: member and administrator. Users that own a Blackberry or are a registered user through the website have the member login type (unless granted administrator status by those who maintain the system). The

administrator login type is reserved for users that are site owners or who work for the website. Administrative users will have all the same functionality when using the website as member users do, but will have a set of unique menu options that will allow them to take action on users uploading or posting inappropriate photos or comments.

1.3 Software context

The application will be available exclusively on the Blackberry phones. These phones are available through most cell phone providers. The target audience for this product is limited to Blackberry users who utilize and download mobile applications. The audience for the website is limited to those who have an internet connection and Email address.

1.4 Major constraints

A major constraint of the application portion of this product is the fact that it will only be compatible with Blackberry software. The website, however, will be accessible to anyone with an internet connection.

2.0 Usage scenario

2.1 User profiles
Blackberry Users Blackberry users are those who will have access to the application portion of the PicFolio product. Through the application they will also be registered users of the website. Website Users Website Users, Blackberry Users, and any other person who is registered with PicFolio (this also includes Administrative Users). Administrative Users Administrative Users are site owners, or people who work for the benefit of the website. Administrative Users have access to all other user functions plus the functions listed in section 4.3 of this document.

2.2 Use-cases
Figures 1, 2, and 3 below show the different use cases for the users of PicFolio. Figure 1 shows the use cases where all users utilize the system. Figures 2 and 3 show the distinct uses for the phone application and Administrative Users.

Figure 1: Use Case Diagram that is true for all users of the PicFolio Website.

3.0 Data Model and Description

3.1 Data Description
The PicFolio product will utilize a few different data objects. These objects will be the main sources of the information the product needs in order to function properly. The data will come in the form of usernames, passwords, photo files, and folders containing a group of photo files.

3.1.1 Data objects

The first data object is the user. The user will contribute their username, password and any files or folder of files they want to upload via the internet through use of the website or the application. The user will supply a unique username for login purposes, and they will supply their email address so that the administrator can easily send emails to the users. The users will also have a penname that they can supply that will allow other users to identify them with. The second data object is a photo file. These files are uploaded to the web page via the internet using either the application or the web page. Each file will have a name which will be associated with the photo when it is uploaded. The third data object is the folder that is named, which is also known as an album. These folders will contain multiple files, each containing a photo and with their own name. When the folder is uploaded as an album, the album will take the name of the folder, and the photos held in the folder will be labeled with their individual file names.

3.1.2 Relationships
The relationships between the data objects above can be seen in Figure 4 of this document. The user data object will communicate with the files and folders related to them through the functions described in section 4.0.

3.1.3 Complete data model

Figure 4: Entity Relationship Diagram of the Data Objects in PicFolio.

3.1.4 Data dictionary

The data for the PicFolio product will be kept in two to three data stores. The first database will contain user login information. The second database will keep track of each users albums and individual picture information. The third will store the comments users can make on an other users picture or album.

4.0 Functional Model and Description

4.4 Software Interface Description

The PicFolio product will have two interfaces for its users. The first will be the application interface viewed through the use of a Blackberry phone. The second will be the interface viewed via the website. These two interfaces will be made similar to help ease of use. In the sections below, the document will describe how these interfaces interact with each other.

4.4.1 External machine interfaces

This product will interface with two different machines. The first is the users Blackberry, which will be hosting the application. This will mean that the application must be compatible with the Blackberry OS. The second is the users computer, which will need to have access to a compatible internet browser.

4.4.2 External system interfaces

Both the application and the website will depend on the user having a connection to the internet. The operating systems of the Blackberry and the computer will need to have compatible browser settings in order to operate the PicFolio product. The internet services are external to these two devices, but they give a direct connection to the PicFolio product.

4.4.3 User interface

There are two user interfaces for the PicFolio product. The first is hosted on the Blackberry as a part of the application. This interface will not only be compatible with the Blackberry OS, and it will also be compatible with the Blackberry Internet Service Browser. This interface will be easy to use and will allow the users to take pictures, group them together, and then upload them onto the PicFolio website. The second interface is hosted on the internet as a website. This website interface will have the same sort of functionality as the Blackberry application, but will be compatible with all web browsers, allowing users who do not own a Blackberry to still take part in the websites functions.

4.5 Control flow description

The control flow of the PicFolio product will start with the user logging in to the Blackberry application or to the website. From this point, the user will control what state they enter next by selecting different options on their menu page. This is described in more detail in section 5.0 and its subsequent sections.

6.0 Restrictions, Limitations, and Constraints

The products phone application will be limited to those who have a Blackberry device, and data plan. The web page portion of this product will be limited to those who have a supported web browser and internet connection. The web page is not limited to customers of the Blackberry, but is open to any users with a login ID and password. This product, as a whole, is limited when there is no connection to the internet. Although the application will still be able to take pictures and group those pictures into albums, the application will not be able to upload those pictures to the web page if no internet connection is available. The web page will also only be accessible when a connection to the internet is made.

7.0 Validation Criteria

The validation process has the intention of testing the system to ensure that all possible flaws are handled properly and the system does not fail. The possible error cases are listed with their appropriate response in the following section.

7.1 Classes of Tests and Responses

7.1.1. Incorrect Login
If the user attempts to login with the incorrect information, an error message will be displayed asking them to attempt to login again.

7.1.2. Incorrect Photo Format

If the user attempts to Import a file that is not a photo they will be prompted that the file they chose is ineligible to be imported, the software will then ask them to choose a different file.

7.1.3. Unavailable Username

During registration - if the username selected by the user is already taken, then he / she will be given an error message and prompted to choose a different username.

7.1.4. Blank Comment

If the user submits a blank comment, he / she will be warned that the comment field was left blank and that it will not be posted.

7.2 Performance bounds

Due to the fact that the application is on a phone, upload speeds would be determined by the network in the users area. Likewise, when the user accesses their account via the Internet the speeds would be determined by the user's Internet Service Provider. The major performance factor of the system is speed, as a user would not want to wait extensive amounts of time to upload their photos. However, the performance is up to the network speeds that the user has with their phone and internet connection, not the system itself.

8.0 Appendices
8.1 Product Strategies
The PicFolio application will be marketed as a tool for the user's mobile device that will make organizing and sharing their photos easier. The application could easily be adopted as a tool for a photography class to be used by the students. Students could easily keep their portfolios and give their professors direct access to their work. Teachers could easily evaluate the photos from the web, and leave comments for improvements or comments of praise on individual photos. Other uses could be employed or suggested to customers such as sharing memories from ceremonies such as weddings and gradation, to sharing family moments such as vacations. The Application will most likely be offered for free in order to attract more users, which means that anyone with the appropriate phone can obtain the application for their own use. The website will be available to everyone to use, and not limited to those with Blackberry devices. Which means they could easily upload and share their photos from their computer as opposed to a phone, and participate in the same way those with the phone application do. The same type of activities previously stated could be done without the phone application, the difference is that as soon as a user with the phone application takes their photos they can instantly organize them and upload them before they even touch their computer.
