Software Requirements Specification
1.0Introduction:
Creating and managing an Online College Magazine where college students and faculties can post
and read various articles, thus promoting literary insight. Articles can be searched by anybody in the
world.
When a project is started an initial investigation is carried out. During this phase of study users need
has recognized and other requirements are determined. Once the problem has been defined a study is
carried out to select the best system i.e. a feasible system that meets performance requirements. So
Feasibility is the determination of whether or not a project is worth doing and the process followed in
making this determination is called a Feasibility Study. In order to conduct the feasibility study we
have seven distinct, but inter-related types of feasibility, these are Technical feasibility, Operational
feasibility, Economical feasibility, Social feasibility, Management feasibility, Legal feasibility and
Time feasibility.
Out of these seven three are key feasibilities to consider, those are:
Technical Feasibility
Economical Feasibility
Operational feasibility
TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY:
This is concerned with specifying equipment (hardware) and software that will successfully satisfy
the user requirement. It considers the following facts:
The facility to produce outputs in a given time.
Response time under certain conditions.
Igce-cse1 Page 3
Ability to process a certain volume of transaction at a particular speed.
Facility to communicate data to distant location.
While examining technical feasibility, huge importance is given to the configuration of the proposed
system. The configuration should give the complete picture about the system’s requirement such that
what kind of hardware is required and how these units are interconnected so that they could operate
and communicate smoothly.
Configurations will be pursued that satisfies the key technical requirements but represent different
levels of ambition and cost.
ECONOMICAL FEASIBILITY:
Since cost plays quite an important role in deciding the new system, it must be identified and
estimated properly. So economic analysis is the most frequently used technique for evaluating the
effectiveness (economical feasibility) of a proposed system. To determine the economical feasibility
of the system a cost/benefit analysis is to make. This procedure is to determine the benefits and
savings that are expected from a proposed system and compare them with costs. Four facts that play
an important role in deciding economical feasibility of the proposed system are as follows:
Cost-saving benefits
Cost-avoidance benefits
Improved-performance benefits
Improved - information benefits.
Hence the proposed system is economically feasible.
OPERATIONAL FEASIBILITY:
It is mainly related to human organizational aspects. The points to be considered are:
What changes will be brought with the system?
What organizational structures are disturbed?
What new skills will be required?
Igce-cse1 Page 4
Do the existing Employees members have these skills if not, can they be trained?
EXISTING SYSTEM:
The existing systems of Online College Magazine of various colleges provides lots of features but all
these Websites are public. Anyone can have an account on these. Such Websites are not secured for
updation of critical information about college. Due to this, a private Website for College has been
established. Only Administrator can post Article earlier but now student can also share ideas.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
Online college Magazine website has various benefits with which we all are quite familiar. The
proposed system has been established for college students, faculty and guests. In this Website, only
the authorized users can login. Many features like all other Websites has been tried to be
implemented. The flexibility of this system will definitely help Students to communicate with each
other very easily.
1.1 Purpose:
Creating and managing an Online College Magazine where college students and faculties can post and
read various articles, thus promoting literary insight. Articles can be searched by anybody in the
world. Factors behind the motivation of this system are:
1. Not all students make it to the printed magazine.
2. Creativity of students needs to be nurtured.
Creating a user-friendly interactive place where students/faculties can share their ideas.
1.2 Scope:
Igce-cse1 Page 5
The Scope of the ONLINE COLLEGE MAGAZINE includes:
User must have a valid User Id and password to login to the system.
If a wrong password is given thrice in succession, that account will be locked and the
customer will not be able to use it. When an invalid password is entered a warning is given
to the user that his account is going to get locked.
Search Engine for all the articles posted till date. Accessible by anybody.
Essential steps to be taken to prevent authenticity infringement.
Articles to be distributed in categories. Can overlap 2 or more categories. Articles to be
associated with suitable tags by the registered users at the time of posting, so that they are
searchable.
The home page to consist of attractive essential features like: most read articles, editor’s
pick, recently posted articles, highest rated articles, article of the month, college news, etc.
Archives to be maintained.
Interactive feedback to be supported to enhance the user experience.
Guests can read articles, rate them and comment on them. They can also access other
optional features (amenities like Word of the day, etc.) but can’t post articles unless they
sign in as registered users.
Automatic commenting on articles by spammers/automatic bots to be defied.
College Students/Faculties can only register as members (through unique IDs).
Alumni registration to be supported.
Registered members, Moderators and Administrators are allowed to post articles.
Articles can be downloaded in various formats.
Registered users, Moderators, and Admins will have their own profile, where they can edit
info for the world to see. Useful “updated” info related to their activities to be available at
their profiles.

1.6 Overview: The SRS will include two sections, namely:
Overall Description: This section will describe major components of the system,
interconnections, and external interfaces.
Specific Requirements: This section will describe the functions of actors, their roles
in the system and the constraints faced by the system.
2.0 Overall Description:
2.1 Product Perspective:
The client will have client interface in which he can interact with the banking system.
It is a web based interface which will be the web page of the banking application.
Starting a page is displayed asking the type of customer he is whether ordinary or a
corporate customer. Then the page is redirected to login page where the user can enter
the login details. If the login particulars are valid then the user is taken to a home page
where he has the entire transaction list that he can perform with the bank. All the
above activities come under the client interface.
The administrator will have an administrative interface which is a GUI so that he can
view the entire system. He will also have a login page where he can enter the login
particulars so that he can perform all his actions. This administrative interface provides
different environment such that he can maintain database & provide backups for the
information in the database. He can register the users by providing them
withusername, password & by creating account in the database. He can view the
cheque book request & perform action to issue the cheque books to the clients.

3.2 Supplementary Requirements:
1) Performance Requirements
System can withstand even though many no. of customers request the desired
service. Access is given to only valid users of college who requires the services such as
upload article, download article, newsletters, thoughts of day,etc.
2) Safety Requirements
By incorporating a robust and proven DB2 UDB into the system, reliable
performance and integrity of data is ensured. There must be a power backup for server
system. Since the product is of 24x7 availability there should be power backup for server
which provides the information .Every day the data should be backup even when the
operation of an user is not successful i.e., while performing the operation power failure
occurs then data should be backup.
