ProjectSeminar2013 Implementation

This document provides guidance for examiners on what they look for in project evaluations. It suggests students have a clear understanding of their project's analysis, design, implementation, and testing. Students should be able to explain the technologies and tools used, including programming languages, databases, frameworks, and testing tools. Code should be well structured and commented. Students should consider similar past projects and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses. The document also provides guidance on choosing technologies and discusses common architecture patterns and development approaches for various languages and platforms.

What Examiners look for

Clear idea about your Project you must know your

project inside out!

You should be able to explain Analysis, Design,
Implementation and Testing of your project
Clear Idea about technology used and tools

Example Java language, used JDK Eclipse GUI tools,

MySQL or Postgresql
Microsoft Visual Studio, C# or VB.net with MS SQL
server (MS SQL Express can be used for free.

Readable clear source code Indentation with

comments (without comment, you will also forget

what you have done)

What Examiners look for

Clear Idea about algorithms used (I would suggest you

to have in the comments)

Explain third party tools incorporated into your
project: ActiveX s, Beans and APIs (Application
Programming Interfaces
Explain Frameworks used: Aspect Oriented
Frameworks: Spring in JAVA and Data Access
Framework: Hibernate, JDBC, ODBC , Remote Access
Frame works: RMI, CORBA and Web Services (SOAP)
etc

What Examiners look for cont

You can also use tools for testing especially for Unit

Testing (JUnit and NUnit)

At any given time, you should be able to make changes
to your code during Code testing and review.
Look at similar projects previously done and do
yourself an evaluation plus and minuses of those
projects.
Learn about design of User Interfaces and Navigation
and User Interfaces to client (you are supposed to have
a client)

Choice of Technology
It is up to you to decide upon the technology and

language you use and sometimes this is totally depend

upon your experience in particular technologies and
preference.
Free and Open Source based technologies vs. Propriety
based Technologies for instance Microsoft Visual
Studio and MS SQL Server 2010, Oracle
FOSS based: MySQL, PostgreSQL, PHP, Apache
Propriety though freely available technologies: JAVA,
GLASSFISH, Netbeans etc.

Model-View-Controller
Architecture (MVC)
MVC architecture pattern which separates information

from the users interaction with it.

This allows code reusability and Separation of concern
and this is achieved by encapsulating or Information
hiding
Another separation of concerns is presentation Layer,
Business Logic Layer, Data Access Layer, Database
Layer.

JAVA based Technology

From Sun, now Oracle, you can download the latest

Java based technologies

J2EE has now changed to Java EE or Java Platform
Enterprise Edition Current version is Java EE 6 version
7 will be out in this month
APIs include JDBC, RMI, JMS
Servlets.Connectors,Java Server Pages (JSP) and

Javabeans and Javalets

You can use Netbeans, Eclipse (this can be used for

android Development as well)

PHP/MySQL/PostgreSQL
Open Source (LAMP or WAMP)
You can use Dreamweaver or Im more comfortable

with Netbeans GUI or Eclipse

MySQL has become part of Oracle
With Object Oriented Design, it is suggested for you
to use PHP with Classes
PHPform.org gives you online creation of form and
there are more on-line Design tools available

Web based technologies

You can use AJAX to make web based application to

give standalone feel.

JavaScript /Dojo Framework and JQuery have become
standard features todays application Development
Java Server Faces (JSF) with AJAX
XUL (XML User Interface Language) Mozilla Project
