SYSTEM DESIGN
Systems design is the process or art of defining the architecture, components, modules, interfaces,
and data for a system to satisfy specified requirements. Object-oriented analysis and design (OOAD)
methods are becoming the most widely used methods for computer system design. The UML has be-
come the standard language used in Object-oriented analysis and design. It is widely used for modeling
software systems and is increasingly used for high designing non-software systems and organizations.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
Here, I have designed a project “Online Job Portal” using JOOMLA CMS. All the application
codes are in PHP with the AJAX and JQUERY backend. This portal provides all the features with
the support of extension JS-JOB Plug-in. The plugin, I am using is free trial, so its functionalities
are limited. My project satisfies all the functional requirements mentioned in the project, however, it
doesn’t contain any Franchise module. In future I will add this feature in this portal with some other
variation, I would like to design more user friendly portal system.
