Scenario / System Requirements

The aim of this project is to develop a website named as “University Certificate Management” to provide instant updates about the status of an application in a University. Using this web-based application, students can submit their applications to the relevant department and then track the progress of their applications. Verifier can login to the system and check the certificates given by University are valid or not. The users of this website are Admin, Students, Teachers, Examination Clerical Staff, Finance staff and from outside Verifier.

The system will store the below information in it.

• Student basic Details
• Semester and Course Details
• Certificate Templates
• Events/Functions Details
• Staff Details

To use the system, user must be register with the system. The system admin have to approve user registration request. Only Clerical Staff and Teachers are allowed to insert the data. Students can only view the details and apply for the required certificate. Verifier can only check certificate authenticity. Only admin has right to see / alter some basic information of users e.g. in case of password lost, admin would help user to recover / reset system password.

Major properties that system should have:

Following are the key functional requirements of proposed Project:

• Sign In and User Registration

There will be two categories of users:

• Internal Users (Admin, Students, Teachers, Examination Clerical Staff, Finance staff)
• External Users (Verifier)

Clerical Staff will have the privileges to upload students and teachers information on the website.
Admin will be the user of website having rights of user management. Admin will approve the registration requests from users and recover accounts for registered users.
There will be Sign In interface for registered users and Sign Up interface for unregistered users to register on the website.

• Information Uploading / Posting

• Examination Clerks are responsible for Semester and course related data management and assign courses to Teachers.
• Teachers are responsible for the grades and the assessment related data of their students.
• Finance Clerks are responsible of Fee related data management.

• Information Retrieval:

• Students can check their pass courses and request for certificates.
• External Users can only verify the certificates after authentication.

• Generating Certificates

• A verification interface must present to check whether request is valid or not.
• Examination Clerks create certificate on user request after proper verification.

User Characteristics or type of users

Definition

Relevant qualities - from part 2
Stakeholders

Translators

Post-editors

Translation consumers

Translation managers

Higher level management

Notes
Users here are human users. When an MT system is a component of a larger system, for example an information retrieval system, other pieces of software may be considered to be users of MT output. Which parts of the quality model will apply in the case of a software user is inherently linked to the overall application in question. Software as user is not explicitly considered in the current version of this taxonomy.
