INTRODUCTION
Goals and Objectives
The main purpose of our online ticket booking system is to provide an
alternate and convenient way for a customer to buy cinema tickets. It is an
automatic system. After the data has been fed into the database, the staf
does not need to do anything with the order once it is received through the
system. In fact, there is similar system on the internet, but there is no refund
method found in the existing system. The goals of our system are:

provide a anytime anyplace service for the customer

minimize the number of staf at the ticket box
promote the film on the internet
increase the profit
obtain statistic information from the booking record.

About this project

Our online E-Ticket System (ETS) is a web-based system. The customers can
buy ticket online and cancel the seat at a suitable time (2 days before the
show to 1hour before the show). To enhance the refund function, all the
customers have to registration become a member before buying ticket.
Staf can use the system to insert and delete data (e.g. film description, time
table) which will update the webpage (webpage are dynamic page, changing
according to the data in database). Also, staf can check the statistic
information from the system.

Conceptual Design
Once all the requirements have been collected and analyzed,
the next step is to create a conceptual schema for the database,
using a high-level conceptual data model. This phase is the
conceptual design. The result of this phase is an
EntityRelationship (ER) diagram. It is a high-level data model of
the specific application area. It describes how diferent entities
(objects, items) are related to each other. It also describes what
attributes (properties) each entity has. It includes the definitions
of all the concepts (entities, attributes) of the application area

number of the user that confirms that the tickets are booked

successfully.

Requirements
General Requirements (functional)
1.

The web page (e.g. The time table page, the main page) will be
generated automatically according to the data in database.

2.

A way in which the customer can create its own account (member
registration).

3.

A way in which the users (both customer and staf) can login to the
system to perform diferent operation.

4.

A way in which the customer can modify its own data.

5.

A way in which the customer can place a order by just clicking the

simple operation)

6.

A way in which the customer can check the ticket record according to
the transaction number.

7.

A way in which the staf can use the system to add data(e.g. film

9.

The system can generate the time table automatically(by just input
the length of the film) or the time table is set by the staf.(2
operating mode for the staf to insert data).

10. The system can generate some statistic information according

booking and ticket selling record.

11. Users can check film data by clicking on a certain film on main
page(e.g. The cinema which will show this films).

Conclusion
Nowadays, traditional reservation ways of cinema ticketing is dying. Its new
age where technology dominates human life. With the software and
technological devices, exceptions are reduced and even terminated. Also,
people prefer easy, quick and safe way for every part of his life. This project
is designed to meet the requirements of a cinema ticket booking system. It
has been developed in Java and the database has been built in My SQL
server keeping in mind the specifications of the system.
In our project: with this cinema ticketing system; cinema companies can
satisfy comfortable facilities to their customers. The relationship between
cinema manager, employee, and customer satisfy a good communication to
complete ticketing process. With this platform we developed, we are hoping
to reduce time wasting, avoid misunderstandings, provide easy data flow,
customer pleasure, and less hard work. We believe that we have
accomplished our goals and satisfied with the code we developed.

I want to thank my friends for helping me in creating this project. It has a
very beautiful designed user interface. It is just a prototype and need few
improvements but the concept in building the project is unique.
