1.1) Introduction:

This document will propose all features and procedures to develop the system.

This document specially containing details about objectives, scope limitation,
process model, primary requirements, team development, possible project
risks, project schedule, and finally monitoring and reporting mechanisms.

On-line Exam System is very useful for Educational Institute to prepare an
exam, safe the time that will take to check the paper and prepare mark sheets.
It will help the Institute to testing of students and develop their skills. But the
disadvantages for this system, it takes a lot of times when you prepare the
exam at the first time for usage. And we are needs number of computers with
the same number of students.

1.8) Project management approach:
Software Process Model:
To solve an actual problems in an industry, software developer or a
team of developers must integrate with a development strategy that include
the process, methods and tools layer and generic phases. This strategy is often
referred to a process model or a software developing paradigm. []

Our project follows the waterfall model.
The steps of waterfall model are:

Software Requirement
Specification

12

(1) Preface
This document has been written to apply a new version of SRS Software
Requirements Specification depends on IEEE-STD-830-1998 standard. So,
you must compare this document with this standard.

This is the first version for On-Line Exam system.

This document is the basic intended for any individual user, developer, tester,
project manager or documentation writer that needs to understand the basic
system architecture and its specifications. [1]

(2) Introduction:
The purpose of this SRS document is to write the functional and non
functional user or system requirements that represent the characteristics of
On-Line Exam System.

The scope and limitation of this system is:

 The on-line exam system design to educational institutes.
 Hold all operation and generate reports to student, teachers and
administrator.
 Support multiple choices questions.
 Allow the student to prochoice the answer and to see his mark.
 Verify a security, authority and safty.

(3) Glossary:
Short name description
1 OES On-line Exam System
2 On-line Exam An exam written on a web site and solves the
questions, also on the same web site from any
place by entered user name and password.
3 Administrator Who is responsible to create a new course,
delete course, add member or delete it, i.e.:
the person who control the system
4 Faculty member A teacher in the faculty

13

(4) User Requirements Definition:
The user requirement for this system is to make the system fast, flexible, less
prone to error, reduce expenses and save the time.

Time can be saved by scheduling the exams, if it is available a question
bank to store questions for different subjects.
A system can be given a mark by checking the students answers, and
give the result as soon as students finish his exam.
A facility to generate a result chart as pre required without manual
interface.
The system should have records of students and faculty that can be
access to the system which can be used only for the authorized person.
The system should be more secure for management user records and
more reliable to work at any conditions.

(4.1)The products and process features:
This system must be designed as user required. So, the complete
requirement must be found:

 Quick scheduling:
The system helps the faculty member to generate an automatic exam
instead of using papers. Which save a time for writing, checking and for
input marks. Also, student can see the exam when he login as an
individual to the system.

 Immediate results and solutions:
When the student finishes his exam, the system checks her answers and
compared with the correct answer. And the system saves the incorrect
and correct answers and calculates the mark of correct answers. Then
give the total mark. And send a report for student to see where he is
fault.

 Easy to store and retrieve information:
Rather to save the information on a papers or in separate sheets. There
are a data base management to store and retrieve the information
needed by the administrator or Faculty member or student according a
report generated by the system.

This section gives a functional requirement that applicable to the On-
Line Exam system.

There are three sub modules in this phase.

 Candidate module.
 Examiner module.
 Administrator module.

The functionality of each module is as follows:
 Candidate module: The candidate will logon to the software
and take his examination. He can also check his previous
examinations marks and his details. The candidate will get result
immediately after the completion of the examination.
 Examiner module: The database is prepared & loaded into
the software. Selection for examination can be done language
wise by the examiner. The results will be displayed immediately
after completion of the examination.

15

10,000 records of students.
 The software shall support use of multiple users at a time.
 There are no other specific performance requirements that
will affect development.

6.2.2) Safety Requirements
The database may get crashed at any certain time due to virus or
operating system failure. Therefore, it is required to take the
database backup.

6.2.3) Security Requirements
Some of the factors that are identified to protect the software from
accidental or malicious access, use, modification, destruction, or
disclosure are described below. Keep specific log or history data
sets
 Assign certain functions to different modules
 Restrict communications between some areas of the program
 Check data integrity for critical variables
 Later version of the software will incorporate encryption
techniques in the user/license authentication process.
Communication needs to be restricted when the application is
validating the user or license. (i.e., using https).

6.4) Software Quality Attributes
The Quality of the System is maintained in such a way so that it can
be very user friendly to all the users.

The software quality attributes are assumed as under:

 Accurate and hence reliable.

(7) System Models:
In this system we are use waterfall model to apply these ideas. Which is help
us to separate each step and when we finish a one phase the output of it is the
input to the next phase. Also, we can backwards if there is a new requirement
or to apply any update.

(8) System Evolution:
 Including image support:
Allow to adding students, faculty members and administrator images
to the system. Which available for student to ensure that exam for his
teacher. Also, the teacher can see his student's image.

 Flags:
Allow the student to put a symbol near the question that helps the
student to return and review the questions and change them
accordingly.

 Enable and disable exam:
Allow the faculty member to control for enable or disable the exam for
his students.

 Allow to transfer exam from one subject to another:
So, that saves the time to rewrite the questions for future course.

 Allow to upload the exam from word or excel file:
So, that saves the time to enter a question in the on-line system, if the
teacher needs not the direct answers.

 Enhanced the questions to be appear as random for each
student:
Make the order of questions as random, or select random questions
from a set of questions.

3.1) Introduction:

Design is the abstraction of a solution; it is a general description of the
solution to a problem without the details. Design is view patterns seen in
the analysis phase to be a pattern in a design phase. After design phase we
can reduce the time required to create the implementation.

In this chapter we are introduce context diagram, models, system
architecture, principal system object, design model and object interface.

3.2) Context Diagram:
This diagram represents what are the bounders and scope of On-Line
Exam System project. It describes the main objective of the system and
its entities involved.

4.1) COCOMOO II:
4.1.1) The early design model:
 Is used once user requirements have been agreed and initial stages of
the system design process are underway.
 The estimates produced at this stage are based on the standard formula
for algorithmic models, namely:

PM = A * SizeB * M where
M = PERS * RCPX * RUSE * PDIF * PREX * FCIL * SCED;
A = 2.94 in initial calibration, Size in KLOC,
B varies from 1.1 to 1.24 depending on novelty of the project,
development flexibility, risk management approaches and the process
maturity.

 Multipliers reflect the capability of the developers, the non-functional
requirements, the familiarity with the development platform, etc.
RCPX - product reliability and complexity; (3)
RUSE - the reuse required; (2)
PDIF - platform difficulty; -(1)
PREX - personnel experience;  (5)
PERS - personnel capability;  (5)
SCED - required schedule; (5)
FCIL - the team support facilities.  (5)

 You estimate values for these attributes using a six-point scale where 1
corresponds to very low values for these multipliers and 6 corresponds
to very high values.

 Function-related metrics:
◦ Related to the overall functionality of the delivered software.
◦ Productivity is expressed in terms of the amount of useful
functionality produced in some given time.
◦ Function points and object points are the best-known metrics
of this type.
 You compute the total number of function points in a program
by measuring or estimating the following program features:
◦ External inputs and outputs;
◦ User interactions;
◦ External interfaces;
◦ Files used by the system.

Unadjusted function-point count
Weighting factor varies from 3 (for simple external inputs) to
15 for complex internal files.

 External input and output:
 Only for registration interface:
For user (student) interface:
o Input: there are 23 inputs. (7)

For faculty interface:
o Input: 17 inputs. (7)

For administrator interface:
o Input: 8 inputs. (7)

Output: Store in data base file  (13)

 Only for add course interface:
o Input: 8 inputs (7)
o Output: Store in data base file  (13)

 Only for add subject interface:

 Only for add question interface:

 Only for take result interface:
o Input: 1 input (7)
o Output: 3 outputs (10)

 User interaction:
There are 48 user interactions. (12)

 External interface:

3 main external interfaces. (13)
