1.5 ProjectScope

Skype was founded in 2003 by Niklas Zennström, from Sweden, and Janus Friis, from
Denmark. The Skype software was created by Estonians Ahti Heinla, Priit Kasesalu, and Jaan
Tallinn. The first public beta version was released on 29 August 2003. Skype offers a number of
features based around calling (both free and paid), messaging (including instant, voice and text messaging
(SMS)), video chat, and file and screen sharing.

2. Overall Description

2.1 Product Perspective

Skype is essentially a freemium voice-over-IP service, that allows registered users to

communicate online via online video calling, instant messaging, and mobile chat. Though
relatively young in the grand scheme of things, the software application is arguably the best
method for users to communicate long distance, whether they are looking to conduct multi-party
business meetings or merely send short, video messages between friends and family. The
software requires no more than an internal or external camera and microphone, often built-in
your computer or smartphone, and an active Internet connection. Calls and messages within
Skype are free, but those to landline and mobile phones will cost varying amounts depending on
the region and accompanying subscription plan. Although some cost more than others, paying
for the premium services is typically far cheaper than purchasing a dedicated phone or texting
plan on your own.

Mobile Apps

In 2012, the website launched Mobile App for Smartphone users. The skype app was
designed for Blackberry, Android ,windows and iPhone devices.

With the launch of mobile Apps and HTML site, more than half of traffic inflow happened
through Apps and Mobile sites.

selecting the function such as video call,chatting,messaging etc. the system must handle concurrent
applications running with multiple users.The system should be secure from external people.
