HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION


The Hardware and Software Configuration for the proposed system is given
below.

Hardware Configuration:-

For the successful run of the proposed system the required stand alone
Personal Computer with, minimum hardware required to run the system is as
below.


Hardware Minimum
Requirement
Processor Pentium 2
Hard disk 4 GB
RAM 64 MB
Dot Matrix Printer 16 Pin

Software Configuration:-

The minimum Software required by the system is follows.

1. ORACLE as Back End.
2. Visual Basic 6.0 as Front End

The reason for selecting ORACLE and Visual Basic as tools are as follows.

Features of ORACLE : -

It is a high performance, full tolerant relational database management
System especially designed for large database application.

It offers following benefits:
 It eliminates all parent-child relationships and instead
represented all data in the database as simple row/column
tables of data values.
 Flexibility in data modeling.
 Easy for accessing data.
 Each table is an independent entity and there is no physical
relationship between tables.
 Reduce data storage and redundancy.

5. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 5

 Independent of physical storage and logical data design.




 It has wide level data manipulation language (SQL).
 Most data management system based on the relational model
has a built-in support for query languages like ANSI SQL or
QBE (Query By Example). These queries are simple English
constructs that allow adhoc data manipulation from a table.
 Deferred writing at commits to improve transaction performance.
 Security and control.
 It has a rollback command for recreating the database to its
most recent safe point. Grant and revoke limits access to
information down to row and column level. Views are valuable
features for limiting access to the primary tackles in the
database.
 Professional ORACLE starts the DBMS (Database Management
System) in the extended memory, so more main memory is
available for other applications.
 Relational model of data management is based on set theory.
Built-in query language is designed in the RDBMS, so that it can
manipulate sets of data (one or more tuples).
 User interface used with relational models is non-procedural
because only what needs to be done is specified and not how it
has to be done. Using any of the other methods, you have not
only to specify what need to be done but how it has to be done
as well.

6. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 6





Features of Visual Basic 6.0 : -

Visual Basic provides complete set of tools to simplify rapid application
Development.
 It provides a vital link to graphical environment and allows you to
develop applications based on standard windows features:
Dialog boxes, Command buttons, Pull down menus, Scroll Bars,
Selection lists etc. It also allows creating robust applications that
fully make use of the graphical user interface.
 ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) and OLE DB replace the Open
database connectivity (ODBC) API as the preferred method for
accessing shared file and client/server databases.
 Internet techniques such as Dynamic HTML (DHML), Extensible
markup language (XML), Active server pages (ASP) and
ActiveX documents offer browser-based alternatives for
displaying and updating data.
 Extensions to Visual Basic class modules assist in writing
middle-tier DLLs for Microsoft transaction server 2.0.
 A multitude of wizards and other graphical tools aid developers
new to Visual Basic.
 Visual Basic is an event driven programming language.
 Visual Basic allows you to adopt more of parallel approach, with
independent sections of code for each option that the user may
select. This is known as Event driven programming language.
 Data Environment Designer (DED).
 Drag and drop form generation.
 Data view window.
 ADO Data Control (ADODC).
 ADO-compliant data-bound controls.
 Hierarchical record sets and the Flex Grid Control.
 Data report design.
 Data form wizards.
 Format objects.
 Data repeater control.
 Data source classes and data building.
 MTS transaction Mode property of Class modules.
 Visual data tools (VDTS).
 SQL editor.
 Component creation.
 Language.
 Packaging and Deployment wizard.
 Data object wizard.
 The integrated development environment.

INTRODUCTION TO EXISTING SYSTEM



The Company follows a manual system for maintaining the Airline
Reservation System.

 Whenever any requisition comes to the Counter to issue a ticket the
firstly the Ticket Capacity checked whether the required quantity of the
ticket is present or not. If the required tickets is present then issue a
ticket and update the reservation information and an entry is done to
the Ticket Issue Register.

 The day-to-day entries are made manually into the book that has
gotten all the relevant entries.

 Check the Ticket Quantity regularly whether any ticket is not in, if so
then Ticket Issue process is cancelled. In the same way Ticket
cancellation is followed. If Fare is increased or decreased then
changes into Fare Book. If New Flight is introduced then entry on
relevant book, that process applies to Flight-Schedule, Airbus, and
Branch.

 At the end of the year or when an intermediate report is needed then
prepare the report is required.

LIMITATIONS OF THE EXISTING SYSTEM



The Existing system includes problems like lack of time consuming, accuracy,
high cost, security problems, etc.

There are many problems in existing systems like:

 Time and speed
 Man power
 High cost
 Security
 Complexity
 Maintenance
 Accuracy
 Storing
 Records might get lost or be insufficient due to manual errors.
 Maintaining and managing data is very costly and time
consuming, because there are many documents that have to be
maintained by each branch and copies have to be transferred to
relative branches.
 Transfer of information within the branches is costly and time
consuming.

FEASIBILITY STUDY & COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS


Feasibility study is most important and it concerns great to the
passenger, for which new system is to be developed. It includes the study of
success and level of satisfaction that the passenger and the user will get from
the system. Feasibility means possibilities (to some extent), i.e. this study
explores the possibility of implementation of new system as a substitute to old
system removing all shortcomings and including all new requirements.

An initial determine in a proposal that whether an alternative system is
feasible or not. To determine feasibility of candidate system in all respect I
need to consider following feasibility factors:

 Economical feasibility
 Technical feasibility
 Behavioral feasibility


ECONOMICAL FEASIBILITY ::-


Since the existing system is manual, the organization posses the computer
and doesn’t require to set the environment.
Cost involved in the software packages includes the ORACLE 8.0 for
storage of data as a back end. Other required software is that which they
already have like WINDOWS 98. This costs around Rs.45, 000/- for the
oracle software.
As the new system size is round 3.5 KDL the cost involved in
developing the system is retrieved as follows:
Size of project = 3.5 KDL.
Organic Project.

Here,
a=3.2 and b=1.05
The cost drivers and their rating for our project are as follows:

Cost Drivers Category Rating
Reliability High 1.15
Database Size Very high 1.16
Complexity Low 0.70
Analyst Capacity Normal 1.00
Analyst Experience Very low 1.29
Programmer Capacity Normal 1.00
Language Experience Normal 1.00

15. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 15






The cost of the project is estimated by the below formula as follows:

Ei = a * (size)
b
=

3.2 * (3.5)
1.05
= 11.923

EAF = 1.15*1.16*0.70*1.00*1.29*1.00*1.00
= 1.20

E = Ei * EAF
= 11.923 * 1.20
= 14.30 PM

If we assume the average salary for the person is about Rs.7, 000/- per
month then the cost is:
Cost = 14.30 * 7000
=100100

So the total cost including the cost of the oracle the RDBMS is:

Total Cost = 1,00,100+45,000
= 1,45,100

Hence the total cost of my project is Rs.1, 45,100/-
Also the total duration for the entire project is:
Here the value of a=2.5 and b=0.38

D = a * (E)
b
= 2.5 * (14.30)
0.38
= 6.870
So the estimated duration for the project is 7 months approximately.

TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY::-

It is determined by the hardware and supporting software.
Hardware requirement: stand-alone computer with enough main
memory space & backup storage more than 2 GB to support RDBMS
and huge database.

Software requirement: ORACLE.

16. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 16





BEHAVIOURAL FEASIBILITY : -


It includes training the user staff on the candidate system. The data entry
design is similar to other forms being used by the user staff. Data entry forms
are very user friendly and data entry job has been kept minimum. So training
of 3-4 will be sufficient. Even for generating reports the user has to supply 2-3
parameters only.

17. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 17




REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS


As we have decided to develop a new system now it is time to
determine the new requirements for the new system. As the user is the most
important part of any system it is required to find the users requirements to
develop a user-friendly system rather than having to develop a developer
friendly system.

The outputs required by the user that must be included into the
proposed system are as follows:

1. The work for the particular user must be personalized.


2. Passport and valid visa are required for ticket booking.


3. Tickets are print as in required order.


4. The user must be provided easy if he wants to switch from one
application
to other at a time.

FACT GATHERING TECHNIQUES




A fact gathering study was undertaken to study the activities involved in
the various aspect of the existing computerized system. We had visited
various person of the company. The existing system was studied by means of

Interviews

Record Reviews


Interviews:

User interviews were conducted to retrieve the qualitative information.
These interviews, which were unstructured, provided opportunity to gather
information from the respondents who involved in the process for a long time.

These interviews provided information such as:

 Activities involved in process of reservation processing involving fare,
other services, flight information, flight schedule information, airbus,
various reports are generated using existing system.

 Type & frequency of forms and reports.

 Limitation of Existing system.




Record Reviews:

To gather details about the Airlines Reservation, many kinds of records
& reports were reviewed. This study covered.

 Standard Operating Procedure.

 Forms and reports generated by existing manual system.

 Document flow (Input / Output) of the system.

DATA FLOW DIAGRAM



As information moves through software, it is modified by a series of
transformations. A Data Flow Diagram (DFD) is a graphical technique that
depicts information flow and the transformations that are applied as data
move from input to output. The data flow diagram is know as a data flow
graph or a bubble chart.

The Data Flow Diagram may be used to representation a system or
software at any level of abstraction. In fact, DFDs may be used partitioned
into levels that represent increasing information flow and functional detail.
Therefore, the DFD provides a mechanism for functional modeling as
information flow modeling.

The Data Flow Diagram (DFD) serves two purposes:

1) To provide an indication of how data are transformed as they move through
the system and
2) To depict the functions that transform the data flow.
The DFD provides additional information that is used during the analysis of
the information domain and serves as a basis for the modeling of function.


A Level 0 DFD also called as fundamental system model or a context
model, represents the entire software element as a single bubble with input
and output data indicated by incoming and outgoing arrows respectively.
Additional processes and information flow paths are represented as the level
0 is partitioned to reveal details. Each of the proves represents at level 1 is
sub function of the overall system depicted in the context model. Each of the
process may be refined are layered to depict more detail. Information
continuity must be maintained in every layer, that is input and output to each
refinement must remain the same.

DATA DICTIONARY



Data Dictionary is a store of information about the data in database.
The dictionary defines the name, description, source of data, users of data,
and keywords in data, formula to derive the data, specification and such other
details. Data dictionary brings common understanding of the data in the
organization. RDBMS provides software to create the dictionary. Use of data
dictionary enforces the standards of processing, usage’s application and
documentation in the organization.


Data Dictionaries are an integral component of structured analysis,
since data flow diagram by them do not fully describe the information about
the system. The data dictionary provides additional information about the
system.


A data dictionary is a catalogue – a repository – of the elements in a
system. These elements center on data the way they are structured to meet
user requirements and organization needs. In a data dictionary, a list of all the
elements composing the data flowing through a system is included. If a
project team member wants to know the definition of a data item name or the
contents of a particular data flow, the information will be available in the data
dictionary. Descriptions of all data used in the system are given in a data
dictionary.

29. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 29



Analysts use Data Dictionary for five important reasons.



1) To manage the detail in large systems.

2) To communicate a common meaning for all system elements.

3) To document the features of the system.

4) To facilitate analysis of the details in order to evaluate characteristics and
determine where system changes should be made.

5) To locate errors and omissions in the system.

TESTING PROCEDURE AND SYSTEM
IMPLEMENTATION PHA SES



System testing is an important but critical part of system. Module
testing involves the process of testing the logical units of program individually
and integrating the individual modules, to test the overall system. The
objective of module testing is to determine whether the module meets its
specifications.

In order to perform module testing two things are to be considered: the
design of test cases and the coordination of the multiple modules. Test cases
may be constructed from specification or by analyzing the module code. The
testing strategies corresponding to tests two approaches are called as black
box and white box testing. In black box testing the internal structure and
behavior of the program is not considered. In white box testing the structure of
the program is examined and test data are derived from the program’s logic.
In non-incremental approach testing modules independently and then
combining them to the program without further testing test a program. In the
incremental approach a module is tested in combinations with the set of
previously tested modules.


The testing plans areas that are to be tested.

1) Testing for data entry error: -
Incorrect data entry, leads to incorrect results. Sometimes
it may creates run time errors. So data should be checked for
validity.

2) Testing for basic principles: -
If all processing is in order but display of the screens is
disorderly then that has to be rectified and such screen can
confuse the user. User will be left wondering on the next actions
to be taken. In some of the cases operator/user has the habit of
certain key for particular option. In such cases users
requirements are taken into consideration. E.g. press Escape for
Exit. In some cases. I.e. Branch code, PNR no are auto
generated.

63. PROBLEM DEFINITION

www.freestudentprojects.com Page 63





3)Testing for suitable error messages: -
If the error messages are not suitable phases or incorrect
then there can be log off problems to the user who is non-
professional won’t be able to figure out what exactly the error is
E.g. if the user has entered an incorrect airbus no and if the
error messages displays “invalid airbus no” then that is an error.
If user pressed ESCAPE key and if nothing happens then that is
also an error.

3) Testing for suitable response time: -
In some cases, the results of a particular query may take
out a lot of system resources and also a longer time to process.
In such cases program logic has to be rewritten. In some cases
changes have been made in table.
One major factor, which has influenced the functionality
of the system, is the valid data. As and when the master files
were completed, the user added valid data and thus the
expected results could also be verified. During testing I used
incremental approach, black box testing and program
instrumentation.
These processes continue till the user is fully satisfied.
The data are again tested and the reports are compared with the
original ones that the system should produce. The testing is
done when the original data for guarantee of the outputs before
it is implemented.

CONCLUSION


The Airline reservation system has been a way of minimizing the
clerical work, which is almost a routine and consumes the most precious time.


This AIRLINE RESERVATION SYSTEM has been an attempt to help
the user to minimize his workload along with minimizing the paper works and
saving of time.


The system has been developed in a way to make it very user friendly.
It provides an on-line message and an error detection and error messages
every time the user needs. Any person having a little bit of window based can
run this system without any pain.


Almost all the difficulties of manual reservation have been removed by
this system. Ti wind up let me welcome all the suggestions and other
improvements, which the system needs so that it covers all the needs if the
user in the user way.
