In this chapter, we have defined some of the key concepts and terminologies that underlie
the CardWorks project. These definitions provide a foundational understanding of the
technical aspects of the project and will be useful in the subsequent chapters where we
will discuss the implementation and testing of the software tool..
The software requirement specification (SRS) describes the functional and non-functional
requirements of the CardWorks project. The following section will discuss the project's
scope, user classes and characteristics, and other essential aspects.
1) Design and develop a software system for generating ID cards, either from scratch
or by customizing an existing system.
2) Develop a user-friendly and intuitive interface for creating and managing ID card
templates, as well as for entering and validating user data.
3) Implement security measures to ensure that the ID card generation system is
secure and protected against unauthorized access, data breaches, and other
security threats.
4) Integrate the ID card generation system with other relevant systems and databases,
such as HR management systems, student information systems, or access control
systems.
5) Provide customizable templates for different types of ID cards, such as employee
ID cards, student ID cards, visitor ID cards, or event badges.
6) Include features such as biometric authentication, barcodes, QR codes, or
magnetic strips, depending on the requirements and use cases.
7) Enable customization of the design and layout of ID cards, including the inclusion
of logos, photos, and other branding elements.
8) Ensure compliance with relevant laws and regulations, such as data protection
laws, privacy regulations, and industry standards.
9) Provide support and maintenance for the ID card generation system, including bug
fixes, updates, and user support.
The project scope can be further refined and tailored to the specific needs and
requirements of the stakeholders, based on factors such as the size and complexity of the
organization, the types of ID cards needed, and the level of customization and integration
required.
The users of the CardWorks software will include individuals or organizations that
require identification cards. The software will have two user classes: administrators and
users. Administrators will have access to all features of the software and can create new
designs, manage user accounts, and view reports. Users will have access to a limited set
of features and can create ID cards based on their account permissions.
The users of the CardWorks software should have basic computer skills and knowledge of
the English language. They should have a fundamental understanding of the identification
card creation process and how to input the required information into the software.
1. User Login: The software should have a secure login page that allows administrators
and users to access the system by providing their username and password.
2. User Management: The administrators should be able to manage user accounts,
including creating new accounts, modifying existing accounts, and deleting accounts.
3. Input of Personal Information: The software should allow the user to input personal
information, such as name, photograph, identification number, and other necessary
details.
4. Design Customization: The software should allow the user to customize the design of
the identification card, including the layout, color, font, and graphics
5. Card Generation: The software should generate an identification card based on the
input provided by the user.
6. Printing: The software should allow the user to print the identification card on a
standard card printer.
Overall, the software requirement specification outlines the essential requirements and
functionalities of the CardWorks project. The SRS will serve as a guide for the project's
development, testing, and implementation phases, ensuring that the final product meets
the user's needs and expectations.
The project successfully achieved the objectives set out in the earlier sections. Below are
some of the significant results of the project:

1. Virtual Card Storage: Our proposed system will store the ID cards in a secure
cloud-based system, which will allow users to access their ID cards from
anywhere, anytime. This will eliminate the need for users to carry physical ID
cards and reduce the risk of loss or theft.
2. Geolocation Tracking: Our proposed system will incorporate geolocation
tracking technology that will enable employers to track the location of their
employees. This will enhance security measures in the workplace and enable
employers to monitor employee productivity.
3. Digital Signature: Our proposed system will allow users to digitally sign their
ID cards, which will add an extra layer of security and authenticity to the ID
cards. The digital signature will also enable users to verify the authenticity of
