marks of the students.
• Student Registration
• Subject Allocation
• Branch selection
• Semester wise selection.
• Examination marks entry
• Displaying branch and semester wise result.
1. INTRODUCTION
Student Management System is software which is helpful for students as well as the
school authorities. In the current system all the activities are done manually. It is very time
consuming and costly. Our Student Management System deals with the various activities related
to the students.
User module
Student Module
In the Software we can register as a user and user has of two types, student and
administrator. Administrator has the power to add new user and can edit and delete a user. A
student can register as user and can add edit and delete his profile. The administrator can add edit
and delete marks for the student. All the users can see the marks.
2. SYSTEM ANALYSIS
EXISTING SYSTEM:
During analysis, data collected on the various files, decision points and transactions
handled by the present system. The commonly used tools in the system are Data Flow Diagram,
interviews, etc. Training, experience and common sense are required for collection of relevant
information needed to develop the system. The success of the system depends largely on how
clearly the problem is defined, thoroughly investigated and properly carried out through the
choice of solution. A good analysis model should provide not only the mechanisms of problem
understanding but also the frame work of the solution. Thus it should be studied thoroughly by
collecting data about the system. Then the proposed system should be analyzed thoroughly in
accordance with the needs.
In the current system we need to keep a number of records related to the student and want
to enter the details of the student and the marks manually. In this system only the teacher or the
school authority views the mark of the student and they want to enter the details of the student.
This is time consuming and has much cost.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
In our proposed system we have the provision for adding the details of the students
by themselves. So the overhead of the school authorities and the teachers is become less.
Another advantage of the system is that it is very easy to edit the details of the student and delete
a student when it found unnecessary. The marks of the student are added in the database and so
students can also view the marks whenever they want.
All the manual difficulties in managing the student details in a school or college have
been rectified by implementing computerization.
FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
Whatever we think need not be feasible .It is wise to think about the feasibility of any
problem we undertake. Feasibility is the study of impact, which happens in the organization by
the development of a system. The impact can be either positive or negative. When the positives
nominate the negatives, then the system is considered feasible. Here the feasibility study can be
performed in two ways such as technical feasibility and Economical Feasibility.
Technical Feasibility:
We can strongly says that it is technically feasible, since there will not be much difficulty in
getting required resources for the development and maintaining the system as well. All the
resources needed for the development of the software as well as the maintenance of the same is
available in the organization here we are utilizing the resources which are available already.
Economical Feasibility
Hardware Requirements
RAM : 128 MB
Software Requirements

trains details and route information.
2. Processing:
The information regarding train details are retrieved from the database.
3. Storage Requirements:
4. Control Requirements:
Alerts when any errors are there and when any of the field is not selected.
4 SYSTEM DESIGN
Introduction
Conceptual Design
Logical Design
Physical Design
The higher view is the conceptual view, followed by the logical view and finally
the physical view. In designing an application, we generally begin and end each phase in a
sequentially order, although they may overlap one another along the way.
Conceptual Design:
All applications are built to solve business problems, and it is important to pay
close attention to principle that the business need drives application development. At any point in
the design process, the current state of the design should be directly traceable to a business
problem and requirements.
Logical Design
Logical Design derives business objects and their related services directly from
these usage scenarios. The logical view of the solution provides a basis for evaluating different
physical options. It also formalizes the solution for the project team.
The idea of the application is that the system first emerges in logical design.Its
boundaries and business objects and it contains the system definition. Logical design specifies
the interfaces between the system and external entities,such as users and other systems. Within a
system there may be a number of sub-systems, and these boundaries are also specified.
Input/Output Specifications
File Specifications
Processing Specifications
Logical design should be technologically independent as possible, inorder to separate
system behavior issues from system implementation issues. Implementation constraints should
only be considered only after the project team verifies that the essential behavior has been
incorporated onto a logical design. This approach does not establish a technical direction until
the system is well understood and documented.
Physical Design
The purpose of Physical Design is to translate the logical design into a solution
that can be implemented effectively, according to performance, administration and development
process requirements. This physical view should correctly implement the desired system
behavior while meeting the constraints imposed by the technology.
UML Diagrams
Introduction
Design is the first step in the development phase for an engineered product or
system. Design is the place where quality is fostered in software development. Design is the only
way that we can accurately translate a user’s requirements into a finished software product or
system. Software design serves as the foundation for all software engineers and software
maintenance steps that follow. Without design we risk building an unstable design -one that will
fail when small changes are made, one that may be difficult to test, and one whose quantity
cannot be accessed until late in the software engineering process.
UML Diagrams are drawn using the Pace Star UML Diagrammed Software. We seem to
able to understand complexity better when it is displayed to us visually as opposed to written
textually. By producing visual models of a system, we can show how system works on several
levels. We can model and the interactions between the users and the system.
Each UML diagram is designed to let developers and customers view a software system from a
different perspective and in varying degrees of abstraction. UML diagrams commonly created in
visual modeling tools include
Use Case Diagram displays the relationship among actors and use cases.
Class Diagram models class structure and contents using design elements such as classes,
packages and objects. It also displays relationships such as containment, inheritance, associations
and others.
Interaction Diagrams:
Sequence Diagram displays the time sequence of the objects participating in the interaction.
This consists of the vertical dimension (time) and horizontal dimension (different objects).

Activity Diagram displays a special state diagram where most of the states are action states and
most of the transitions are triggered by completion of the actions in the source states. This
diagram focuses on flows driven by internal processing.
Physical Diagrams:
Component Diagram displays the high level packaged structure of the code itself.
Dependencies among components are shown; include source code components, binary code
components, and executable components. Some components exist at compile time, at link time,
at run times well as at more than one time.
Deployment Diagram displays the configuration of run-time processing elements and the
software components, processes, and objects that live on them. Software component instances
represent run-time manifestations of code units.
DATABASE DESIGN
The general theme behind a database is to handle information as an integrated whole. A database
is a collection of interrelated data stored with minimum redundancy to serve many users quickly
and efficiently. The general objective is to make information access easy quick and flexible for
user. In database design several objectives are considered.
Control Redundancy:
Redundant occupies space and therefore, is wasteful. If versions of the data are in different
phases of updating the system often gives conflicting information. A unique aspect of database
design is storing only once, which controls redundancy and improves system performance.

5 SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
Introduction
Implementation is the stage in the project where the theoretical design is turned into a
working system. The implementation phase constructs, installs and operates the new system. The
most crucial stage in achieving a new successful system is that it will work efficiently and
effectively.
There are several activities involved while implementing a new project. They are
The successful implementation of the new system will purely upon the involvement of the
officers working in that department. The officers will be imparted the necessary training on the
new technology
The education of the end user start after the implementation and testing is over. When the
system is found to be more difficult to understand and complex, more effort is put to educate the
end used to make them aware of the system, giving them lectures about the new system and
providing them necessary documents and materials about how the system can do this.
After providing the necessary basic training on the computer awareness, the users will
have to be trained upon the new system such as the screen flows and screen design type of help
on the screen, type of errors while entering the data, the corresponding validation check at each
entry and the way to correct the data entered. It should then cover information needed by the
specific user or group to use the system.

6. SYSTEM TESTING
Introduction
Is the menu bar displayed in the appropriate contested some system related features
included either in menus or tools? Do pull –Down menu operation and Tool-bars work properly?
Are all menu function and pull down sub function properly listed ?; Is it possible to invoke each
menu function using a logical assumptions that if all parts of the system are correct, the goal will
be successfully achieved .? In adequate testing or non-testing will leads to errors that may appear
few months later.
2. The effect of the system errors on files and records within the system
The purpose of the system testing is to consider all the likely variations to which it will be
suggested and push the systems to limits.
The testing process focuses on the logical intervals of the software ensuring that all
statements have been tested and on functional interval is conducting tests to uncover errors and
ensure that defined input will produce actual results that agree with the required results. Program
level testing, modules level testing integrated and carried out.
Testing Methods
White box sometimes called “Glass box testing” is a test case design uses the control
structure of the procedural design to drive test case.
Using white box testing methods, the following tests were made on the system
a) All independent paths within a module have been exercised once. In our system, ensuring that
case was selected and executed checked all case structures. The bugs that were prevailing in
some part of the code where fixed
b) All logical decisions were checked for the truth and falsity of the values.
Black box testing focuses on the functional requirements of the software. This is black box
testing enables the software engineering to derive a set of input conditions that will fully exercise
all functional requirements for a program. Black box testing is not an alternative to white box
testing rather it is complementary approach that is likely to uncover a different class of errors
that white box methods like..
1) Interface errors
3) Performance errors
Unit testing
Unit testing is a software verification and validation method in which a programmer tests
if individual units of source code are fit for use.
Ideally, each test case is independent from the others: substitutes like method stubs,
objects, fakes and test harnesses can be used to assist testing a module in isolation.
Integration Testing:
This testing is sometimes called Integration and Testing. Integration testing is the phase
in software testing in which individual software modules are combined and tested as a group. It
occurs after unit testing and before system testing. Integration testing takes as its input modules
that have been unit tested, groups them in larger aggregates, applies tests defined in an
integration test plan to those aggregates and delivers as its output the integrated system ready for
system testing.
Validation Testing:
Validation Testing can be defined in many ways, but a simple definition is that validation
succeeds when the software functions in a manner that can reasonably expected by a customer.
After validation test has been conducted, one of the following two possible conditions exists. The
functions or performance characteristics confirm to specification and are accepted.
• In the administrator and marks modules, all the fields must be filled.
• In the student registration, mobile number should contain exactly 10 numbers.
User acceptance of a system is a key factor of any system. The system under
consideration is tested for the acceptance by constantly keeping in touch with the prospective
system users at the same time of developing and marketing changes whenever required. This is
done in regard to the following points:
Test Cases
7. CONCLUSION
Our project is only a humble venture to satisfy the needs in an Institution. Several user
friendly coding have also adopted. This package shall prove to be a powerful package in
satisfying all the requirements of the organization.
The objective of software planning is to provide a frame work that enables the manger to
make reasonable estimates made within a limited time frame at the beginning of the software
project and should be updated regularly as the project progresses.

9 APPENDIX
Introduction To Languages
JAVA
The Java programming language is robust and versatile, enabling developers to:
Java Applications
The java platform differs from most other platforms in that it’s a software-only
platform that runs on top of other hardware-based platforms.
Java technology is a portfolio of products that are based on the power of network
sand the idea that the same software should run on many different kinds of systems
and devices.
J2EE:
Java platform, Enterprise Edition or Java EE is a widely used platform for server programming
in the Java Programming language. The Java EE platform differs from the Java Standard Edition
Platform(Java SE) in that it adds libraries which functionality to deploy fault-tolerant,
distributed, multi-tier Java software, based largely on modular components running on an
application server. The J2EE1.4 SDK beta was released by Sun in December 2002.
Introduction to SQL :
Database
A database management, or DBMS, gives the user access to their data and helps them transform the
data into information. Such database management systems include dBase, paradox, IMS, SQL Server and
SQL Server. These systems allow users to create, update and extract information from their database.
A database is a structured collection of data. Data refers to the characteristics of people, things and
events. SQL Server stores each data item in its own fields. In SQL Server, the fields relating to a
particular person, thing or event are bundled together to form a single complete unit of data, called a
record (it can also be referred to as raw or an occurrence). Each record is made up of a number of fields.
No two fields in a record can have the same field name.
SQL Server stores records relating to each other in a table. Different tables are created for the various
groups of information. Related tables are grouped together to form a database.
Primary Key
Every table in SQL Server has a field or a combination of fields that uniquely identifies each record
in the table. The Unique identifier is called the Primary Key, or simply the Key. The primary key
provides the means to distinguish one record from all other in a table. It allows the user and the database
system to identify, locate and refer to one particular record in the database.
Relational Database
Sometimes all the information of interest to a business operation can be stored in one table. SQL
Server makes it very easy to link the data in multiple tables. Matching an employee to the department in
which they work is one example. This is what makes SQL Server a relational database management
system, or RDBMS. It stores data in two or more tables and enables you to define relationships between
the table and enables you to define relationships between the tables.
Foreign Key
When a field is one table matches the primary key of another field is referred to as a foreign key. A
foreign key is a field or a group of fields in one table whose values match those of the primary key of
another table.
Referential Integrity
Not only does SQL Server allow you to link multiple tables, it also maintains consistency between
them. Ensuring that the data among related tables is correctly matched is referred to as maintaining
referential integrity.
Advantages of RDBMS
Disadvantages of DBMS
A significant disadvantage of the DBMS system is cost. In addition to the cost of purchasing of
developing the software, the hardware has to be upgraded to allow for the extensive programs and the
workspace required for their execution and storage. While centralization reduces duplication, the lack of
duplication requires that the database be adequately backed up so that in case of failure the data can be
recovered.
SQL SERVER is one of the leading database management systems (DBMS) because it is the
only Database that meets the uncompromising requirements of today’s most demanding
information systems. From complex decision support systems (DSS) to the most rigorous online
transaction processing (OLTP) application, even application that require simultaneous DSS and
OLTP access to the same critical data, SQL Server leads the industry in both performance and
capability
SQL SERVER is a truly portable, distributed, and open DBMS that delivers unmatched
performance, continuous operation and support for every database.
SQL SERVER RDBMS is high performance fault tolerant DBMS which is specially designed
for online transactions processing and for handling large database application.
SQL SERVER with transactions processing option offers two features which contribute to
very high level of transaction processing throughput, which are:The row level lock manager
The unrivaled portability and connectivity of the SQL SERVER DBMS enables all the
systems in the organization to be linked into a singular, integrated computing resource.
2. Portability
SQL SERVER is fully portable to more than 80 distinct hardware and operating systems
platforms, including UNIX, MSDOS, OS/2, Macintosh and dozens of proprietary platforms.
This portability gives complete freedom to choose the database sever platform that meets the
system requirements.
3. Open Systems
SQL Server’s networking and distributed database capabilities to access data stored on
remote server with the same ease as if the information was stored on a single local computer. A
single SQL statement can access data at multiple sites. You can store data where system
requirements such as performance, security or availability dictate.
5. Unmatched Performance
The most advanced architecture in the industry allows the SQL SERVER DBMS to
deliver unmatched performance.
Real World applications demand access to critical data. With most database Systems
application becomes “contention bound” – which performance is limited not by the CPU power
or by disk I/O, but user waiting on one another for data access . SQL Server employs full,
unrestricted row-level locking and contention free queries to minimize and in many cases
entirely eliminates contention wait times.
Introduction To JDBC
JDBC technology is an API(included in both J2SE and J2EE releases) that provides cross
DBMS connectivity to a wide range of SQL database and access to other tabular data sources,
such as spreadsheets or flat files. With a JDBC technology-enabled driver, you can connect all
corporate data even in a heterogeneous environment.
• A JDBC-ODBC bridge provides JDBC API access via one or more ODBC drivers.
• A native-API partly Java technology-enabled driver converts JDBC calls into calls on
the client API for Oracle, Sybase, Informix, DB2, or other DBMS.
• A net-protocol fully Java technology-enabled driver translates JDBC API calls into a
DBMS-independent net protocol which is then translated to a DBMS protocol by a
server.
• A native-protocol fully Java technology-enabled driver converts JDBC technology
calls into the network protocol used by DBMSs directly.
JDBC Architecture:
The JDBC Driver API, which supports the JDBC Manager-to-Driver Connection. The JDBC
API uses a driver manager and database-specific drivers to provide transparent connectivity to
heterogeneous databases. The JDBC driver manager ensures that the correct driver is used to
access each data source. The location of the driver manager with respect to the JDBC drivers and
the Java application is shown in the figure below:
