METHODOLOGY

This chapter of the study provides information of all the materials used in conducting

the study. The materials will describe the software and hardware used in the development of

the system and it explains how the materials were prepared. The methods provide the

detailed steps and procedures on how the system was made.

Materials

The following computer specifications were used in developing the proposed system:

CPU: Intel Core i7-7500U with a GPU: NVIDIA GeForce MX110 (2GB GDDR5) with DISPLAY:

15.6”, Full HD (1920 x 1080), IPS had STORAGE: 256GB SSD + 1000GB HDD consist RAM:

8GB DDR4, 2400 MHz and have an OS: Windows 10.

The software used were: Java as programming language; PHP for the web-based

specifications of the system; XAMPP, Apache and MySQL for the back end.

The phone used in testing had the following specifications:

Body Dimensions: 142.4 x 69.6 x 7.9 mm (5.61 x 2.74 x 0.31 in);Weight: 152 g (5.36

oz); Build: Front/back glass (Gorilla Glass 4), aluminum frame; OS: Android 6.0

(Marshmallow), upgradable to Android 8.0 (Oreo); TouchWiz UI; CPU: Octa-core (4cx2.3

GHz Mongoose and 4x1.6 GHz Cortez-A53).

Methods

The waterfall model is a software development process. This waterfall model

emphasizes that a logical progression of steps be taken throughout the software

development life cycle (SDLC), much like the cascading steps down an incremental
waterfall. While the popularity of the waterfall model waned over recent years in favour of

more agile methodologies, the logical nature of the sequential process used in the waterfall

method cannot be denied and it remains a common design process in the industry.

Waterfall Model
Requirements. During this initial phase, the potential requirements of the
application are methodically analysed and written down in a specification document
that serves as the basis for all future development. The result is typically a
requirements document that defines what the application should do, but not how It
should do it.
Analysis. During this second stage, the system is analysed in order to
properly generate the models and business logic that will be used in the application.
Design. This stage largely covers technical design requirements, such as
programming language, data layers, serve, etc. A design specification will typically
be created that online how exactly the business logic covered in analysis will be
technically implemented
Coding. The actual score code is finally writer in this fourth stage,
implementing all models, business logic and service integrations that were specified
in prior stages.
 Testing. During this stage. QA beta testers, and all the tastes semantically,
discover and report with the application that need to be resolved.
