process, where every step requires data. The activity is
monitored and sent the database for further update.
5. Tool Kit :
As mentioned in user customization, for modifying any field
like pin code search, and the post offices displayed, we work

30. 30 | P a g e
with tool kits. In tool kits depending upon the platform different
forms are available.
6. Hybrid Communication:
Users can enter the pin code or state name to get the post office
name along with the district corresponding to that pin code.
Conversely users can enter a post office name to get its pin
code. One can also search for post offices by district or state
name to get list of all post offices situated in that state or district.
7. Choice of Notation:
To account the security and consistency issues, using java
provides the reliability to the website.
8. Tool kit (Explicit and implicit):
The tracking system is updated periodically to provide you with
the most current information available about the location and
status of your item

31. 31 | P a g e
3. User interface adoptability:
After modifying any fields, the website should show the
modifications done by the user and the confirmation should be
asked whether these changes are to be saved. To achieve this, we
must write code using forms/ menus in any programming
platform.
4. Distributed System:
For every activity in this Philately service follows the step wise
process where every step requires data. The activity is monitored
and sent the database for further update.
5. Tool Kit:

maximum required, national/international, e-product selection, we
work with tool kits. In tool kits depending upon the platform
different forms are available.
6. Hybrid Communication:
In this the input is consistent in terms of data entry fields. There is
no choice in loss of activity done by the user. The activity done by
the user is saved in the cache.
7. Choice of Notation:
To account the security and consistency issues, using java
provides the reliability to the website.
8. Tool kit (Explicit and implicit) :
Since our website do not speak about over ride any modules,
functions. We don’t have Explicit and Implicit for our website.
9. Create interaction manager:
After gathering the feedback about Philately service, adding the
other information provided is known. If it is required to add the
