Problem Statement The client needs to keep detailed compliance data
on all student-athletes in the athletic department.
The current solution involves packets of forms completed by each student-athlete.
This method is very labor intensive, and wasteful of paper.

Approach The new product will provide a green software
solution for both the student-athletes and the athletic officials.
Students will be able to submit their information online, while officials can monitor and approve the student’s progress.
Officials will also be able to create the online forms students complete.

Market Survey Similar products do exist to solve a similar
problem. A number of Big 12 schools have implemented systems internally to handle NCAA forms for their student athletes while others have contracted out development of commercial systems. Our own athletics department received an estimate from ISU Information Technology Services, but the cost was beyond their budget. The estimate from ITS was $13,600 for development with an annual hosting cost of $1,700.

Deliverables ISU NCAA Online Compliance System
Final deployment will yield a fully functional system which contains an initial set of user accounts, compliance forms, and help files.
Documentation will be created and delivered throughout the development process to ensure client needs are met.

System Description Client-server design model PHP, Javascript, MySQL Two Modes: Admin and User Admin
Import student-athletes Create forms for athletes to fill out
User Fill out and submit forms
Heavy use of AJAX Javascript initiated HTTP requests to web server Server responds in parsable format Multi-tiered system, only one layer communicates w/
database

Model/View/ControllerSeparates out business logic and data structures from user interface specifics
Reasons: Modularized software components – can easily and simply swap
user interfaces without changing workings of other components Single point-of-entry into the system – all requests routed through
one mechanism Single layer of data access – allows for easy changing of data
sources Quicker development – given interface connections, developers can
develop in parallel on one piece of the system
Tools: EZPDO – object-oriented relational data access library XMI2PHP – turn a UML class diagram directly into EZPDO-
consumable classes

ViewHas no knowledge of business logic
Arranges contents of model map into form consumable by client
JSON – JavaScript Object Notation ExtJS specific

ControllerActs as link between model and view
Simple hand-constructed control routing mechanism A controller method can be accessed directly by the
URL Handles retrieving the controller and the view
Has no knowledge of user interface – it just populates a hash map of model objects
Data access point – all data access happens in the controller and business logic is applied through model business managers
