INTRODCUTION

At University of Karachi (Department of Computer Science) out team wants to

organize online examination test. The purpose of on-line test simulator is to take

online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The

main objective of on-line test simulator is to efficiently evaluate the candidate

thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also

gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and

time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. The project

proposed here is designed to expand the efforts in a more coordinated manner. The

hope is that we can develop a campus-wide, secure, web-based system that will make

the process of examination more efficient and secure.

PURPOSE

This Web Application provides facility to conduct online

examination world-wide.

It saves time as it allows number of students to give the exam at a

time and displays the results as the test gets over, so no need to

wait for the result. It is automatically generated by the server. Administrator has a privilege to create, modify and delete the test

papers and its particular questions.

User can register, login and give the test with his specific id, and

can see the results as well.

SCOPEScope of this project is very broad in terms of other manually taking exams.

Few of them are:-

This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate

world.

Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application.

User Location doesnt matter).

No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the

test.

FEATURES Secure Easy to use

Reliable and accurate

No need of examiner

Technologies usedThis project is a web application that is developed in ASP.NET

having DB2 as back end.

1. Database Design (SQL server)

2. Input Design (ASP.NET)

3. Coding (C #)

Feasibility StudyWhat are the users demonstrable needs?

User needs a web-based system, which will remove all the above-mentioned

Problems that, the user is facing. The user wants a web-based system, which

will reduce the bulk of paperwork, provide ease of work, flexibility, fast

record finding, modifying, adding, removing and generating the reports.

How can the problem be redefined?

We proposed our perception of the system, in accordance with the problems

of existing system by making a full layout of the system on paper. We talliedthe problems and needs by existing system and requirements. We were further

updating in the layout in the basis of redefined the problems. In feasibility

study phase we had undergone through various steps, which are described as

under:

How feasible is the system proposed? This was analyzed by comparing the

following

factors with both the existing system and proposed system.

CostThe cost required in the proposed system is comparatively less to the existing

system.

EffortCompared to the existing system the proposed system will provide a better

working environment in which their will be ease of work and the effort

required will be comparatively less than the existing system

Time

Also the time required generating a report or for doing any other work will be

comparatively very less than in the existing system. Record finding and

updating will take less time than the existing system.

Labor

In the existing system the number of staff required for completing the work is

more while the new system will require quite less number of staff.

Specification Report

System Interface

Application would be a self-contained system. It will not

access data of any

other application nor will other application have access to its

data.

User Interface

Application will be accessed through a Browser Interface. The interface

Would be viewed best using 1024 x 768 and 800 x 600 pixels resolution

Setting. The software would be fully compatible with Microsoft Internet

Explorer 9 and Chrome, Safari etc. No user would be able to access any part

of the application without logging on to the system.

Time Line

We will maintain the projects every talk in milestones. There are the following

phases which would be documented as they are being completed.

In the first step we acquire both functional and non-functional requirements

from user and system developers.

After completing the requirement model analyzing of the project would be

started. In this phase the technology, the team, environment would be selected.

Development would be started then.

Testing period, and at last the deliverable of the project would be submitted to

client.

Every team member would work parallel, and provide each of their milestone to

make update the project.

Anticipated Outcomes

These are the following anticipated outcomes

This MIS will help to manage information more accurately.

It will increase maintainability of information.

It will provide user to attend his own exam seperatly. Teacher would have facility to check these papers, through computer.

Application would facilitate students, teachers both.

The use of invigilator wouldnt require.

COST

The cost of the project would be dependent on futures rates in industry. The

application would be given a cost after suggesting the cost of developers and other

staff members.

How we avoid or mitigate this risk factors

Organizational constraint

It can be removed if the management is powerful who is giving the order for

the project and have the power to implement the without taking care what the

employees think about the project as compare to what is better for the

organization.

Budget:

It most likely come in government organization because they normally

reversed the projects of their predecessors one so to avoid it a signed

undertaken by all stakeholders that the project funding never stops what so

ever.

Natural Disaster:

The chances of this are very rare but it is quite impossible to avoid instead of

creating a backup project plan and choosing the place for the project which is

less susceptible to natural disaster
