INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
The Software Requirements Specification lays the foundation for the systematic approach
towards the development of this software. . It provides a general overview of the system. It
helps to translate the ideas in the minds of the clients. It includes understanding of the
problem domain, establishing an architectural framework, identifying all external entities
that will interact with the system, the users and defining their functions, the constraints that
would exist and the overall functioning of the system.

1.2 Purpose
We the students of Wireless Lan communicator do not have a localized software to interact
which aims at targeting people of Wireless Lan communicator only. Today is an era of
android, so taking that under consideration we aim at developing an android app which
helps us to communicate to Wireless Lan communicator in an organized, secured way.
Basically, this app aims at users discuss over a project/ assignment and make SRS, Project
reports or assignments from their hostels or rooms, they don‟t need to sit together in one
room and do the discussions. In this we provided all functionality regarding there is proper
login, then provision of making calls, video calls, chat, sending of files or docs, feature of
document sharing in which say two people can simultaneously open a document, edit it,
make necessary changes and can save the same and assignment in which teachers can
submit assignment date and assignment to do for respective students and students can also
submit their respective assignments under the time given. Nothing needs to be done
manually.

1.3 Scope
The Wireless Lan communicator is designed to facilitate an android app for Wireless Lan
communicator for interacting and sharing in a better organized way. The present SRS is an
attempt in this direction so as to facilitate subsequent development and implementation of
an interactive app.
The software will have functional modules for most of the activities like login, call, video
call, messages, document sharing and assignment. A back-end database working for
maintaining the student login records which will be managed by admin.
The proposed system will provide quick way and easy flow of information with updatable
database bringing the relevant features needed to interact.
This app will be very useful for the 3rd and 4th year students who have to make projects
which need everyday communication among them. And, in this era, where everyone is so

3

indulged in their work that going to meet someone and do discussions about project work
seems to be a wastage of time. This app will let the users to do all that by sitting at their
own places.

1.4 Definitions, Acronyms, and Abbreviations
There are three basic users for our android app: student, teacher and admin.
Student can use all the basic features of the app.
Teacher can also access all the features along with an additional feature of
uploading the assignment topic with the submission date.
Admin is a user too who is responsible for log in records and updating of database
for any new information.

1.6 Overview
Our application for the interaction of people of Wireless Lan communicator running on
android provides us facility of making call, video call, sending messages, sharing and
editing files, uploading assignments on respective teacher‟s account.
SRS includes two sections :
Overall description
Specific requirements.
Overall description will describe the role of the components of the software and their
interconnections. Specific requirements will describe roles & functions of the actors i.e.,
student, teacher and admin.

Overall Description
2.1 Description
To begin with, we should know about the types of users for this app, these are:
-

student
teacher
and, admin

So, there will be three different windows for the respective user. As, all have different
requirements, like:
-

-

-

student need to do chat; send file; call; video call; send messages and friend request; see
notifications; update their status regarding their working schedule; upload assignments
at respective teacher’s account; discuss on say, projects, and make updation to single
document, e.g project report; and all this can be done to the friends in friend list.
teacher need to do chat; send file; call; video call; send messages and friend request;
update their status regarding their working schedule; upload assignment topic with the
submission date and this can be sent as notifications to all the students; discuss on
say, projects, and make updation to single document, e.g project report; and all this can
be done to the friends in friend list.
Admin is a simple user. He/ She can be a student or a teacher with an extra feature
provided to him/her of managing the students/ staff list of Wireless Lan communicator.

This app needs an internet connection with wifi working or systems connected through
LAN/routers.

2.2 Product Perspective:
The software is a self-contained and an independent product with proper user interface.
The application uses the centralized database which contains all the information. It works
on any android based phone.

Hardware Interface:
An android phone with an inbuilt Camera or it can run on an AVDs (Emulator) running
on computer having a webcam, speakers/headphones and microphones. They all should
be working.

Software Interface:
It works with SQLite database . SQLite is an Open Source Database which is embedded
into Android. SQLite supports standard relational database features like SQL syntax,
transactions and prepared statements. In addition it requires only little memory at
runtime.
Eclipse, an IDE with SDK and ADT installed in it with Minimum SDK version „8‟ and
Target SDK version 17.

Communication Interface:
Sip(Session Initiation Protocol) functionality is used to make and answer VOIP calls.
This needs to import package android.net.sip.

Memory Constraints:
Today Android phones have memory in GBs. Our app would need around 256MB.
