CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
“Project-Thesis Management System in Context of IIUC” is a platform that where our
teachers, supervisors and students can manage thesis or project related process easily. In this
system teacher, supervisor and students have different module. These particular modules manage
particular issue based on their access in the system. This platform gives up the opportunity to
interact teachers and students easily with each other. They can share their idea also. It gives
opportunity to select supervisor or select student for final thesis or project. This platform builds
interaction so that thesis-project management in the department can be easier for teachers and
students both.
1.1 Objectives of the System
The main objective of this system to make easy project & thesis management on the context of
Dept. of CSE, IIUC. The system has also following objectives-
• To amalgamate all of our respected teachers and students in a common platform that
research process of our dept can be easier.
• To increase the communication between supervisor and students which makes the
project/thesis management faster.
• To store our teacher workings records and interests so that a student can easily find their
supervisor according to his interest field.
1.2 Overview of the present system
Actually this type of project/thesis management system does not use by any university. We the
first in Bangladesh are going to use this type of project/thesis management software to handle
project/thesis management in our university. Most of the university in Bangladesh handle this
project/thesis management manually which is very complex and take more time. In the present
system perspective a student has to collaborate with teacher physically, has to wait for the
decision of teacher, has to searching the interest area of teachers who are matched according to
his research interest.
1.3 Proposed system
The Proposed System is a web based project thesis management system that which handle all
actions that to complete project/thesis from start to end. The system has separate profile for
teachers and students. There is a head admin who has overall access of this system. Students can
login in the system and get limited access in this system as he need like requesting to a teacher,
sending request to create a team etc. Teachers have multi-access in the system like approval of
team, rejecting of a student request, accepting of a student request etc. Most attractive feature
that student and teacher can collaborate with each other by messaging them through the system.

2 | P a g e
1.4 Project Deliverables
• Our “Project-Thesis Management System in context of IIUC” is created for taking
every measure to make the thesis/project process more informative.
• It is developed for making the existing process faster and accurate.
• It gives continuous data which is required whenever and anyplace.
• Collaborate with teachers and students for making a decent administration for its users.
• Easy to use interface so that students and teachers can easily manage this software.

LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Introduction
A literature review is a critical and in depth evaluation of previous work It is a rundown and
outline of a specific region of work, permitting anyone investigating the framework to build up
why you are seeking after this specific work. A decent writing audit develops the purposes for
choosing a specific work question. Writing audit isn't just an ordered inventory of every one of
your sources, however an assessment. All sides of a contention must be obviously clarified, to
maintain a strategic distance from inclination, and territories of understanding and contradiction
ought to be featured. A review may casing and essential bit of the examination system or may
contain an investigation adventure in itself. In the going with composing study we will discuss
some present system which are for the most part like our framework.
In this segment we will make a correlation of the accompanying system with our system. In the
past segment we saw that the system has issues with different substance, for example, proposal
framework, correspondence and so forth.
2.2 Review of Related Work
Before building up our system, we had considered few systems which are halfway identified
with our system. There is a system which is partially common of our system but features are
different.
UMEXPERT Review:
UMEXPERT is an academic portal of the University of Malaya. Students can search to find their
teachers in the system if student want to know about a specific teacher. Every teacher has
personal profile which is decorated with his recent publications, publish books, his research
interest, his personal info like email etc. There are four types of searching available in the
UMEXPERT. User can search based on name, expertise area, publications and research which
makes this system more user friendly. There are there specific portion of home page of this
portal represents recent applications, publication date and latest awarded grant. Recent
publications part consists of all publications of university teachers whose publish recently. As a
result it is possible to look all publications at a glance. Similarly publication date portion
represents all of pares publication date.
Login button is the gate for entering into internal system. To log into the system user must be
provide valid id and password. This feature ensures the security of this system. It also proved
that without valid person an anonymous person can not enter into the system. Using this system
teacher can partially monitoring the students not fully. By using this system teachers can see the
progress of students belonging with him/her.
Finally, UMEXPERT used as an official portal of University of Malaya and after login into
system it also helps to partially monitoring of student.

4 | P a g e
2.3 Comparisons of our System
UMEXPERT is the portal of the University of Malaya. It represents all information about
students and teachers. On the contrary our system is created based on project thesis management
system of our department. There are partially common features of two systems . The common
features are searching based on specific keyword, publication records, personal profiles of every
teachers. This profile consists of personal information of teachers, his publication records, his
interest area, his expertise area etc.
UMEXPERT cannot operate mandatory monitoring on students. On the contrary our system can
operate every major issues of project/thesis management of the students and teachers. This
system also represents as a portal which consists of all information about project/thesis. Because
all information about project/thesis can be find in the system. Using this system a supervisor can
monitor his team, can operate with student, share important resources with students.
UMEXPERT has not these features.
Finally this system can be used as an portal about project/thesis related issues and it also used as
the monitoring software for handling all project/project management.
2.4 Objectives of the study
• To provide security in the system.
• To make user friendly system.
• To provide best monitoring system about project/thesis management.
• To overcome the constraints of existing system.
• To give best service to the user.
• To find out the problems that whose should be solved.
• To get best output.

CHAPTER THREE
METHODOLOGY
A Methodology refers to planning, structuring of works and controlling the procedures of
building up a system. To make programming, engineers need to seek after some framework. In
our endeavor we seek System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) approach. Since using this
methodology we can do our function admirably requested and arranged quickly. System
Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a strategy of perceiving how a structure can be maintained if
business needs, plan the system, making it and passing on it to customers. It fuses five phases
which are:
• Planning
• Analysis
• Design Physical
• Design Logical Design
• Implementation
• Maintenance.
3.1 Necessity of the Methodology
Picking methodology is one of the main choices you'll need to make as a task chief. Distinctive
venture the board systems have their very own advantages and disadvantages for various task
types. Some are intended for speed, some for extensiveness. Approach is required for
programming so it makes with limit. We will demonstrate a levelheadedness which contains the
techniques for stirring up our errand subordinate upon proposed framework. To build this
“Project-Thesis Management System in Context of IIUC” we also require a approach and
System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is the best approach.
3.2 Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
The software development life cycle (SDLC) is a structure characterizing undertakings
performed at each progression in the software development process. SDLC is a structure pursued
by an advancement group inside the product association. It comprises of plan arrangement
portraying how to create, keep up and supplant explicit programming. The existence cycle
characterizes a procedure for enhancing the nature of programming and the general advancement
process. For “Project-Thesis Management System in Context of IIUC” we pursue SDLC to make
explicit for the users.

6 | P a g e
Fig 3.1 : Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
3.3 Feasibility Study
A feasibility study is an analysis used in measuring the ability and likelihood to complete a
project successfully including all relevant factors. It must account for factors that affect it such as
economic, technological, legal and scheduling factors. Examination and delivering
considerations in regards to another structure does this.
Adventures in attainability examination:
• For an undertaking group.
• Create framework flowchart.
• Enumerate potential proposed framework.
• Defined and assess execution and financially savvy of each proposed framework. Select
best proposed framework.
• Prepare and report last task direct to the executives.

7 | P a g e
3.3.1 Technical Feasibility
Investigations of assets accessibility that may influence the capacity accomplish an adequate
system. The technical needs of the system may include:
Front end determination
• Feasibility
• Robustness
• Easy to investigate and keep up
• Must have a GUI that helps client who isn't from IT foundation.
• Scalability and extensibility
We have chosen HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JQuery and Bootstrap as our front end.
Back end determination
• Efficiently information taking care of
• Efficient information recovery and support
• Easy to introduce
• Compatible
We have chosen PHP(Laravel), MySQL as our back end.
3.3.2 Economic Feasibility
For any system if the normal advantages rise to or surpass the normal costs, the system can be
made a decision to be monetarily achievable. In economic feasibility, cost benefit analysis is
done in which expected expense and advantages are assessed. Economic analysis is used for
assessing the viability of the proposed system. In economic feasibility, the most essential is Cost
advantage examination. As the name recommends, it is an examination of the expenses to be
brought about in the framework and advantages logical out of the system.
3.3.3 Operational Feasibility
Operational feasibility is mainly concerned with issues like whether the system will be used if it
is developed and implemented. It alludes to the proportion of taking care of issues with the
assistance of another proposed system. It helps in exploiting the chances and satisfies the
prerequisites as recognized amid the improvement of the task. It takes care that the
administration and the user support the project.

8 | P a g e
3.3.4 Schedule Feasibility
A time feasibility study will take into account the period in which the project is going to take upto its
completion. A project will fail it takes too long to be in any way finished before it is helpful.
Regularly this implies assessing to what extent the system will take to create, and on the off
chance that it very well may be finished in a given timespan utilizing a few techniques like
recompense period. Schedule feasibility is a proportion of how sensible the task timetable is. Our
system Schedule feasibility is exact time accommodation of the framework.
3.4 Objects list of system

•Explaining specialized measures to guarantee framework security
•Identify how the framework meets material administrative necessities
5.3.1 Use Case Diagram
A Use Case Diagram (UML) at its simplest is a representation of a user's interaction with the
system that shows the relationship between the user and the different use cases in which the user
is involved. A use case diagram can distinguish the distinctive kinds of clients of a framework
and the diverse use cases and will regularly be joined by different sorts of charts too. The use
cases are spoken to by either circles or ovals. A use-case diagram can help give a larger amount
perspective of the framework. It has been said before that "Use case diagrams are the diagrams
for your system". They give the improved and graphical portrayal of what the system should
really do.
5.3.2 Use Case
A use case is a methodology used in system analysis to identify, clarify, and organize system
requirements. The use case is comprised of a lot of conceivable successions of communications
among system and users in a specific domain and identified with a specific objective. It
comprises of a gathering of components (for instance, classes and interfaces) that can be utilized
together such that will have an impact bigger than the entirety of the different components
consolidated.
5.3.3 Use Case Diagram Symbols
Actors: An actor portrays any entity (or entities) that perform certain roles in a given system.
The different roles the actor represents are the actual business roles of users in a given system.
An actor in a use case diagram interacts with a use case.

14 | P a g e
Package: Package is used to group elements, and to provide a namespace for the grouped
elements.
Use Case: Use case is a list of steps, typically defining relations between an actor and a system,
to achieve a goal.
Notes: Notes have comments or textual information.

5.4 Activity Diagram
Activity diagrams are graphical representations of workflows of stepwise activities and actions
with support for choice, iteration and concurrency. In the Unified Modeling Language, activity
diagrams are proposed to demonstrate both computational and authoritative procedures (i.e.,
work processes), as well as the data flows crossing with the related exercises. Although activity
diagrams primarily show the overall flow of control, they can also include elements showing the
flow of data between activities through one or more data stores.
5.4.1 Activity Diagram Symbols
Start Symbol: Used to represent the starting point or the initial state of an activity.
Activity Symbol: Used to represent the activities of the process.
Connector Symbol: Used to represent the flow of control from one action to the other.
End Symbol: Used to mark the end of all control flows within the activity.
Decision Symbol: This symbol is represented with a diamond shape, which represents branching
of control flows.

5.4.3 Sequence Diagram
Sequence Diagrams are interaction diagrams that detail how operations are carried out. They
catch the cooperation between articles with regards to a joint effort. Sequence Diagrams are time
center and they demonstrate the request of the connection outwardly by utilizing the vertical hub
of the outline to speak to time what messages are sent and when
5.4.4 Sequence Diagram Symbols
Objects: Objects that are involved in interactions are placed on the x-axis. Objects are senders
and receivers of messages in the sequence diagram.
Lifeline Symbol: Represents the passage of time as it extends downward. This dashed vertical
line demonstrates the successive occasions that jump out at an article outline procedure.
Activation Box: Activation boxes represent the time an object needs to complete a task. At the
point when an article is caught up with executing a procedure or sitting tight for an answer
message, utilize a thin dark square shape set vertically on its helps.
Messages: There are different types of messages in the sequence diagram.

19 | P a g e
Synchronous Message: It's usually drawn using a line with a solid arrowhead pointing from one
object to another.
Asynchronous Message: Asynchronous messages don't need a reply for interaction to continue.
Like synchronous messages.
5.4.5 Sequence Diagram for Login
To access in system user must be follow some sequences. At the beginning user must be login in
the system to access the features. There are three types of login such as StudentLogin,
TeacherLogin and AdminLogin. If the user can not provide valid information it shows error
message.

5.5 Database Design
Database Design is a collection of processes that facilitate the designing, development,
implementation and maintenance of enterprise data management systems. It helps create
database system that meet the necessities of the clients have superior. The primary targets of
database planning are to deliver intelligent and physical structures models of the proposed
database system.
5.5.1 E-R Diagram
E-R Diagram stands for Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD). An Entity Relationship Diagram
(ERD), otherwise called an element relationship demonstrate, is a graphical portrayal of a data
framework that delineates the connections among individuals, objects, spots, ideas or occasions
inside that framework. An ERD is an information demonstrating procedure that can help
characterize business forms and be utilized as the establishment for a social database.

5.5.6 Normalized E-R Diagram
Normalization is a mechanistic approach, based on the set theory underlying normalization, to
achieving normalized data. The weakness is that inexperienced users apply it without fully
understanding the context of the data ‘the business rules’. ERD is a more top down approach
based on the business rules but which delivers normalized data.

5.6 Data Flow Diagram
A data flow diagram (DFD) maps out the flow of information for any process or system. It
utilizes characterized images like square shapes, circles and bolts, in addition to short content
names, to demonstrate information inputs, yields, stockpiling focuses and the courses between
every goal. Information flowcharts can extend from straightforward, even hand-drawn process
reviews, to inside and out, staggered DFDs that dive logically more profound into how the
information is dealt with. They can be utilized to break down a current framework or model
another one. Like all the best graphs and outlines, a DFD can frequently outwardly "say" things
that would be difficult to clarify in words, and they work for both specialized and nontechnical
groups of onlookers, from engineer to CEO.
5.6.1 Data Flow Diagram Symbols
There are several types of symbols.

5.6.2 Context Diagram
The Context Diagram demonstrates the system under thought as a solitary abnormal state process
and after that demonstrates the relationship that the framework has with other outside elements
(frameworks, authoritative gatherings, outer information stores, and so on). Another name for a
Context Diagram is a Context-Level Data-Flow Diagram or a Level-0 Data Flow Diagram.
Since a Context Diagram is a specialized version of Data-Flow Diagram, understanding a bit
about Data-Flow Diagrams can be helpful.

CHAPTER SIX
SOFTWARE DESIGN & TESTING
To build and design of this system we used some programming languages.
6.1 Tools Used in Design
6.1.1 Font End:
• HTML5
• CSS3
• JavaScript
• Bootstrap
6.1.2 Back End:
• PHP
• MYSQL
6.1.3 Server: XAMPP v7.2.12
6.1.4 Editor:
• Sublime Text
• JetBrains PhpStorm
6.1.5 PHP
PHP is a content dialect and translator that is uninhibitedly accessible and utilized fundamentally
on Linux Web servers. PHP, initially got from Personal Home Page Tools, presently represents
PHP: PHP executes on the server, while a tantamount option, JavaScript, executes on the
customer. PHP is an option in contrast to Microsoft's Active Server Page (ASP) innovation.
Likewise with ASP, the PHP content is inserted inside a Web page alongside its HTML. Before
the page is sent to a client that has asked for it, the Web server calls PHP to decipher and play
out the activities called for in the PHP content. Like ASP, PHP can be thought of as "dynamic
HTML pages," since substance will shift dependent on the consequences of translating the
content.

32 | P a g e
6.1.6 MySQL
MySQL is the world's most well known open source database, empowering the savvy
conveyance of solid, elite and adaptable Web-based and installed database applications. It is a
coordinated exchange protected, ACID-agreeable database with full submit, rollback, crash
recuperation, and column level locking capacities. MySQL conveys the usability, versatility, and
superior, just as a full suit of database drivers and visual instruments to encourage engineers and
DBAs manufacture and deal with their business-basic MySQL applications.
6.1.7 HTML
HTML is the World Wide Web's core markup language. Initially, HTML was fundamentally
structured as a dialect for semantically depicting logical reports. Its general plan, be that as it
may, has empowered it to be adjusted, over the resulting years, to portray various different kinds
of archives and even applications.
6.1.8 CSS
CSS is the language for describing the presentation of Web pages, including colors, layout, and
fonts. It enables one to adjust the introduction to various sorts of gadgets, for example, vast
screens, little screens, or printers. CSS is autonomous of HTML and can be utilized with any
XML-based markup dialect. The division of HTML from CSS makes it less demanding to look
after locales, share templates crosswise over pages, and tailor pages to various conditions. This is
alluded to as the division of structure (or: substance) from introduction.
6.1.9 JAVASCRIPT
JavaScript is a programming language for the web. It is bolstered by most internet browsers
including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, web Explorer, Edge, Opera, and so on. Most versatile
programs for PDAs bolster JavaScript as well. It is fundamentally used to upgrade site pages to
accommodate a more easy to understand involvement. These incorporate progressively
refreshing website pages, UI upgrades, for example, menus and exchange boxes, activitys, 2D
and 3D designs, intuitive maps, video players, and more. This mode of JavaScript usage in the
web browser is also referred to as client-side JavaScript.

6.4.2 White Box Testing
White Box Testing (also known as Clear Box Testing, Open Box Testing, Glass Box Testing,
Transparent Box Testing, Code-Based Testing or Structural Testing) is a software testing method
in which the internal structure/design/implementation of the item being tested is known to the
tester. In this system pick inputsto practice ways through the code and decides the fitting yields.
We effectively tried this white box testing through our code and advised that worked
consummately.
6.4.3 Black Box Testing
Black Box Testing is testing method that interior structure/plan/execution of the thing being tried
isn't known to the analyzer. This technique is named so on the grounds that the product program,
according to the analyzer, resembles a black box; inside which one can't see. This strategy
endeavors to discover blunders in the accompanying classifications:
• Interface errors
• Errors in data structures or external database access
• Behavior or performance errors
• Initialization and termination errors
