Project Planning

The first step of project planning by searching a keyword “Portfo” in the any web browser and come up with different web applications of portfolio web apps and go through this all application came up with idea of making an web application of combination of all the features which are best in all this application and came up with essential features that are feasible and also some improvements that should be considered.

Risk Management

It is the process for understanding of project and be careful about the risk which occurs in projects. There are mainly three steps of risk management below this are:

Risk Identification

It is the first step for Risk Management Risk Identification is related to find risk in project. Dependency of the risk is the trained developer, User furnished item. In risk identification there some requirements issue also generates as Example: Lack of clear product vision, Lack of technical staff, not clear requirements, changing in requirements, etc. Also have some general risk like lack of resources, Time duration not proper management, user requirements, lack of information.

Risk Analysis

When risk is analyzed, it is important to qualify the level of uncertainty and the degree of loss associated with each risk. To accomplish this, different categories of risk are considered.

• Project Risk: It threatens the plan of the project. If the risk is generated then the cost of the project will increase very much. In the risk there are some factors like size and complexity of project, structure of project is affected to risk of project.
• Technical Risk: It threatens the quality and timeliness of the software to be produced. If this risk is generated implementation of project become difficult or it become impossible.
• Business Risk: It threatens the viability of the software to be built.

Risk Planning

It is means of addressing the concern for system availability by identifying potential exposure (burns out, disgruntled employee inflicts serious damage), prioritizing application and designing safeguards that minimize loss if a disaster occurs.

Estimation

Effort Estimation

The system which is generated are very useful for financial company who worked with the loan and insurance system. So, the system is very useful for customer and employee. The effort for this system is not much more because it is easily understandable by anyone but the much more time taken for generate because in the system all about the money so the minor mistake is become bigger in the system. There are many efforts done to make this system easy and very useful.

Cost Estimation

The cost of this system is minor for free users, and depends upon the merchants(subscriber) according to their need of system’s providing packages of subscription.

• The system stops working in case if the database server or the application server stops working.
• The system might give erroneous output if it fails to connect to the database server.
• This system will not work if there no GPS location accessibility.

Design: Analysis, Design Methodology and Implementation

Study of Current System

This Software Requirements Specification provides a complete description of all the functions and specifications of the Web application “Portfo – A Portfolio Cloud”.

Problem & Weakness of Current System

This system is used for portfolio making, job searching, and Publishing offers.

This system can be used if there is active internet connection otherwise this web application will not work.

Requirement of New System

Requirement of this system while there are many applications is present is that all the applications which are available have many drawbacks such as some of the application is location wise like some application will work in specific regions only. This application has many features that are not included in some of the applications and using the latest technologies and is real time application. Features which are included such as Searching both technical and non-technical jobs according to user needs, Publishing offers that is provide to merchants (subscriber), Portfolio making for free users.

Feasibility Study

Operational Feasibility Studies

If new user arrives then he/she has to sign up to the web application. Then afterward web application will give option in dashboard. If user wants to Advertise his/her offers then it’s given some subscribing packages from this web application. If user wants to select portfolio theme according to their profession he/she can. User has also option of feedback. User update the profile and manage his profile.

Technical Feasibility Studies

This Web application is totally based on the internet connection. This Web application can be used any mobile devices and tablets. This application works on the internet so the working speed of this system is depending on the speed of the internet. All the data are store on the server database not on the user device so it is adjustable in small space of memory.

Economical Feasibility Studies

We developed this Web application to save the more expenses and user Friendly. Here is the most important part is human effort, but parallel of this thing is time effort. Time effort also effect on development of product.

Requirement Validation

System is Web application based and is used by many users at a time so it is highly reliable and it is with minimum down time. Validation is the main reliability requirement that is used in the system. Without proper validation, system does not allow to enter the value in the database.

Function of System

Use Case Diagram

In software and systems engineering, a use case is a list of actions or event steps typically defining the interactions between a role (known in the Unified Modeling Language as an actor) and a system to achieve a goal. The actor can be a human or other external system.

In this use case diagram roles of different user have been defined like admin, user,and merchant their respective activities are shown here.

Sequence Diagram

Sequence diagrams are sometimes called event diagrams or event scenarios. A sequence diagram shows, as parallel vertical lines (lifelines), different processes or objects that live simultaneously, and, as horizontal arrows, the messages exchanged between them, in the order in which they occur.

Here the sequence of the admin is shown managing the sequence of activities performed by him like login success, Manage Profile, Provide theme, Manage Merchant, Manage Publish Offers,Manage Review,Manage FAQs,Manage Transaction and at last the database is shown were all the details is stored, updated and fetched from it.

Activity Diagram

Activity diagram is another important diagram in UML to describe the dynamic aspects of the system. Activity diagram is basically a flowchart to represent the flow from one activity to another activity. The activity can be described as an operation of the system. The control flow is drawn from one operation to another. Activity diagram showing the different activities of the user which are going to performed by him using the application. All the activities have been shown and optional activities are shown in fork and join with start and end symbol.

Class Diagram

In software engineering, a class diagram in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system’s classes, their attributes, operations (or methods), and the relationships among objects.

Here the class diagram of the system has been shown where all the relationship, operations, attributes and the roles of the different actors has been described in detailed among different classes.

Data Modeling

E-R Diagram

An entity-relationship model describes interrelated things of interest in a specific domain of knowledge. A basic ER model is composed of entity types and specifies relationships that can exist between instances of those entity types. The E-R diagram showing the relationship between different entities which are included in our system with their different attributes respectively.

Data Flow Diagram

A data flow diagram (DFD) is a graphical representation of the “flow” of data through an information system, modelling its process aspects. A DFD is often used as a preliminary step to create an overview of the system without going into great detail, which can later be elaborated. Here the data flow diagram up to three level has shown representing flow of the data of the application and admin through the application fetching data from the database.
