  5. Problem Analysis • Project Abstract • Problem Specification • Constraints and Limitations

  6. Project Abstract • The application needs to track: • facility usage • program participation • use of services. • Designing a three tier Web application • The application needs to be: • Easy to support • Scalable

  7. Problem Specification • The UHCL Fitness Center runs several programs and services • Fitness Zone membership • 100 Mile Club • locker rental • FZ needs an application to track facility usage, program participation, and use of services. • Needs to be scaleable to support future programs and direct access by members.

  8. Problem Specification • Problem of current system • Some modules are not executing • Data is not saved to a centralized database • Look and feel is not user-friendly • Documentation and user guide are not sufficient • Show Stopper • Crystal reports will not run • User has to type the data into MS Excel instead • Conclusion from end user • Project was not complete

  9. Constraints and Limitations • Network • Cannot access the system off campus • Database • MS Access is sufficient but not an enterprise solution • System • Needed from UCT • Install IIS • Upgrade to .NET framework 2.0 • Grant administrator access • Project Scope • Fulfill user’s requirements and set up a good architecture • Leave space for future improvement • Not enough time or resources to elaborate and resolve all issues

  10. Design • Three tier Web application architecture • Will run locally in the Fitness Zone • Client access via UHCL network

  11. System Architecture

  12. Use Case Diagram

  13. Use Case Diagram

  14. Database Design

  15. Database Schema - 1 • Persons • personID, … , typeID • PersonType • typeID, description • Some person type descriptions: • Employees • Student Employee • Students • Alumni • Dependants • Guests

  16. Database Schema - 2 • Programs • programIndex, programName, startDate, endDate, … • MemberPrograms • programIndex, personIndex • startDate, endDate, progress • fee, • goals

  17. Database Schema - 3 • Membership • lockerID, joinDate, endDate • membershipStatus, termIndex, • medicalCondition • tuitionPaymentStatus, membershipFeePayment, … • Sessions • date, timeIn, timeOut • Rentals • rentalIndex, termIndex, membershipIndex, lockerIndex, fee

  18. Implementation • Three Tier Web Application • Microsoft IIS Web Server • Presentation layer (ASP.NET) • WebChart for creating graphical reports • Business logic (C#) • Database (MS Access)

  19. Implementation Issues • Problems Encountered: • Old Version of .NET Framework (1.1) • IIS was not installed • Needed a solution for developing graphical reports • Solutions: Worked with Mentor and UCT to: • Update the .NET Framework to version 2.0 • Install the IIS Web Server. We found a third party tool for developing graphical reports with ASP.NET.

  20. Previous Application

  21. User Interface

  22. User Interface

  23. User Interface

  24. Project Screenshots

  25. Prototype Evaluation • More intuitive and User Friendly • Employee work flow and repetitive tasks were considered in UI design • Scaleable / easy to maintain • All features are not yet complete • Complete features are independent, useful, and immediately useable

  26. Vision for the Future • Move to a public Web server • Members will access the system directly • Reduce the work load for the manager and staff • Add services and convenience for members. • Migrate to a more robust database • MS SQL Server, Oracle, or MySQL. • The system is designed with the future in mind • The application will scale as usage increases • Additional functionality can be added easily

  27. Project Management • Development Team • Roles • Major Tasks • Project Plan • Conclusions

  28. Development Team (Roles) • Team Leader (Mark) • organize team efforts • ensure that the team is satisfying all course requirements. • Webmaster (Mark, Jacqueline) • maintain the Project Web site. • DBA (Jacqueline, Hala) • design, document, implement, and maintain the project database. • Lead Programmer (Lawrence, Hala) • design the structure of the application modules • guide the coding efforts of other team members. • System Administrator (Hala, Lawrence) • evaluating the computers in the Fitness center & install software. • Technical Writer (Mark, Hala) • edit the documents produced by the team.

  29. Development Team (Major Tasks) • Determine Requirements • Evaluate existing application • Choose Technologies for Implementation • Design and Implement Prototype • Create complete and detailed documentation • Install system and train Fitness Zone staff

  30. Development Team (Project Plan)

  31. Conclusions • The project has been successful • Detailed Requirements were documented • Database design is vastly improved • User Interface is more intuitive • Available features are fully functional • System architecture is moreflexible, scalable, and maintainable • System documentation is improved

  32. Suggested Next Steps • Complete the Program management features • Create a new program • Create participation report • Automated email messages to participants • Complete the group email report • Send mail to “locker renters” or “expiring members” • Streamline the User Interface
