Vision

1. Introduction

Online off-center councelling Version: 1.0
Date: 10/10/2010

The Vision summarizes the "vision" of the project. It serves to tersely communicate the big ideas
regarding why the project was proposed, what the problems are, who the stakeholders are, what
they need, and what the proposed solution looks like.

1.1 Purpose

The purpose of this document is to present a detailed description of the Online off-center
councelling. It will explain the purpose and features of the system, the interfaces of the system,
what the system will do, the constraints under which it must operate and how the system will
react to external stimuli. This document is intended for both the guides and the developers of the
system.

1.2 Scope

Off-centre online Councelling software is software which alleviates the need for the student to go
to the specific allotted nodal centers for councelling and provides a systematic approach for the
students in the allotment procedure for a college. In the current system, the travelling needs of
the student have to be elicited, the software needs to have minimal information requirement from
the student side, and allotment should be according to rank of the student. The current system has
only a single day slot which does not incorporate a delay which can be disastrous for students.

1.3Refrences

Applicable references are:-

• Roger.S.Pressman, software engineering – A Practitioners Approach.

UML Bible.

• Herbert Schieldt, Java 2 complete reference.

• Khalid Mugal “JAVA”

2.1Business Opportunity

Off-centre online Counceling has great opportunity in the commercial market. The existing
system is less efficiency. The travelling needs of the student have to be elicited, the software
needs to have minimal information requirement from the student side, and allotment should be
according to rank of the student. The current system has only a single day slot which does not
incorporate a delay which can be disastrous for students. This system can also be implemented in
other systems also. So; this system causes great change in the market.

2.2Problem Statement

The problem of The efficiency is low and lack of information

available in the site.

Affects Student

The impact of which is Student not gets collage according to their rank.

A successful solution would This problem can be overcome through a system

be which works on an algorithm which is faster and
provide detail information.

2.3Product Position Statement

For Universities who allot the collage manually.

Who To provide efficient system.

The (product name) Online off-center councelling

That Student got college according to their rank; there is no

chance of fraud.
Unlike The existing manual system for concelling.

3. Stakeholder and User Descriptions

There are two users to this system known as Student and Administrator.

3.1 Market Demographics

The demographics in market that are interested in this software are the universities that want
online councelling within their universities. The demographics may be any universities .The
market size is vast for this product because any demographic can use the product easily and it is
very cheap to implement it.

3.4User Environment

The system needs user that is students can complete the task of giving choices of collages to the system
for their councelling. The other user is admin which allot seats to the students.The system is implemented
using Java which is platform independent, so application can run on all platforms.

3.5 Key Stakeholder or User Needs

Currently college allotment procedure is a process in which a student has to report at the centre
at a particular time. Also, the whole process of councelling is cumbersome as it is a long
stepwise process. Need of this project is justified by its meaningful information that it provides
to its users and ease that it provides to its users. The need to report at a particular instance has
been removed with our site, also all the information regarding the councelling has been made
available at the same place.
