Student Management System Project Report
Student Management System Project Report
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
• Mark management
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.
SYSTEM ANALYSIS
EXISTING SYSTEM:
1
System Analysis is a detailed study of the various operations performed by a system and their
relationships within and outside of the system. Here the key question is- what all problems exist in the
present system? What must be done to solve the problem? Analysis begins when a user or manager begins
a study of the program using 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. 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.
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
2
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 say’s 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.
ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY:
Development of this application is highly economically feasible. The organization needed not spend much
money for the development of the system already available. The only thing is to be done is making an
environment for the development with an effective supervision. I f we are doing so, we can attain the
maximum usability of the corresponding resources. Even after the development, the organization will not be
in condition to invest more in the organization. Therefore, the system is economically feasible.

INTRODUCTION TO JAVA
Introduction to Java
About Java :
Java is defined by a specification and consists of a programming language, a compiler, core libraries
and a runtime (Java virtual machine) The Java runtime allows software developers to write program
code in other languages than the Java programming language which still runs on the Java virtual
machine. The Java platform is usually associated with the Java virtual machine and the Java core
libraries.
History:
Java is a programming language created by James Gosling from Sun Microsystems in 1991. The first
publicly available version of Java (Java 1.0) was released in 1995. Over time new enhanced versions of
Java have been released. The current version of Java is Java 1 .7 which is also known as Java 7.
From the Java programming language, the Java platform evolved. The Java platform allows that the
program code is written in other languages than the Java programming language and still runs on the Java
virtual machine.
Java programs are compiled by the Java compiler into so-called byte code. The Java virtual
machine interprets this byte code and executes the Java program.
5
Java comes in two flavors the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and the Java
Development Kit (JDK). The Java runtime environment (JRE) consists of the JVM and the Java class
libraries and contains the necessary functionality to start Java programs. The JDK contains in addition the
development tools necessary to create Java programs. The JDK consists therefore of a Java compiler, the
Java virtual machine, and the Java class libraries.
The Java Development Kit (JDK) is provided by Sun Microsystems as a basic development environment for
Java. The JDK provides similar facilities to the cc compiler for C programs, plus a JVM simulator and some
additional facilities such as a debugger. To use the JDK, programs are constructed as ascii text files (by
using an editor, for example). The program files are compiled, which translates the Java code to JVM
bytecode in .class files.
Each public class must be in a file having the class name (case
sensitive on Unix) followed by a .java suffix. There may be any number
of classes defined in a .java file, but the compiler produces a separate.
class file for each class. A file is compiled with the javac command,
which is similar to the cc (or gcc) command. A class is executed (or
more precisely, the method main in a class is executed) by the
command java with the class name (not the .class file) as the
parameter. Thus, for example, to compile the program in file Hi.java,
we would use the command javac Hi.java and then to execute the
program we would use the command java Hi Both compile-time and
execution-time (exceptions) error messages include the file name and
line where the error occurred. No .class file is produced if there is a
compile-time error.
Characteristics of Java:
The target of Java is to write a program once and then run this program on multiple operating systems.
6
Interpreted and compiled language: Java source code is transferred into the byte code format which does
not depend on the target platform. These byte code instructions will be interpreted by the Java Virtual
machine (JVM). The JVM contains a so called Hotspot-Compiler which translates performance critical byte
code instructions into native code instructions.
Automatic memory management: Java manages the memory allocation and deallocation for creating new
objects. The program does not have direct access to the memory. The so-called garbage collector deletes
automatically objects to which no active pointer exists. The Java syntax is similar to C++. Java is case
sensitive, e.g. the variables my Value and my value will be treated as different variables
JAVA PLATFORM:
The programmer writes Java source code in a text editor which supports plain text. Normally the
programmer uses an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for programming. An IDE supports
the programmer in the task of writing code, e.g. it provides auto-formatting of the source code,
highlighting of the important keywords, etc. At some point the programmer (or the IDE) calls the Java
compiler (javac). The Java compiler creates the byte code instructions. These instructions are stored in
.class files and can be executed by the Java Virtual Machine.
J2SE:
J2SE is a collection of Java Programming Language API (Application programming interface) that is
very useful to many Java platform programs. It is derived from one of the most dynamic programming
language known as "JAVA"
J2SE is a collection of Java Programming Language API (Application programming interface) that is very
useful to many Java platform programs. It is derived from one of the most dynamic programming
language known as "JAVA" and one of its three basic editions of Java known as Java standard edition
being used for writing Applets and other web based applications.
J2SE platform has been developed under the Java umbrella and primarily used for writing applets and
other Java-based applications. It is mostly used for individual computers. Applet is a type of fast-working
subroutine of Java that is platform-independent but work within other frameworks. It is a mini
application that perform a variety of functions, large and small, ordinary and dynamic, within the
framework of larger applications.
J2SE provide the facility to users to see Flash movies or hear audio files by clicking on a Web page link. As
the user clicks, page goes into the browser environment and begin the process of launching application-
within-an-application to play the requested video or sound application. So many online games are being
developed on J2SE.

ABOUT ORACLE
About Oracle
Oracle is a relational database management system, which organizes data in the form of tables. Oracle is
one of many database servers based on RDBMS model, which manages a seer of data that attends three
specific things-data structures, data integrity and data manipulation.
With oracle cooperative server technology we can realize the benefits of open, relational systems
for all the applications. Oracle makes efficient use of all systems resources, on all hardware architecture;
to deliver unmatched performance, price performance and scalability. Any DBMS to be called as RDBMS
has to satisfy Dr.E.F.Codd’s rules.
Features of Oracle:
Portable
The Oracle RDBMS is available on wide range of platforms ranging from PCs to super computers
and as a multi user loadable module for Novel NetWare, if you develop application on system you can run
the same application on other systems without any modifications.
15
Compatible
Oracle commands can be used for communicating with IBM DB2 mainframe RDBMS that is different
from Oracle, which is Oracle compatible with DB2. Oracle RDBMS is a high performance fault tolerant
DBMS, which is specially designed for online transaction processing and for handling large database
applications.
Oracle adaptable multithreaded server architecture delivers scalable high performance for
very large number of users on all hardware architecture including symmetric
multiprocessors
(sumps) and loosely coupled multiprocessors. Performance is achieved by eliminating CPU, I/O, memory
and operating system bottlenecks and by optimizing the Oracle DBMS server code to eliminate all internal
bottlenecks.
Oracle has become the most popular RDBMS in the market because of its ease of use
• Client/server architecture.
• Data independence.
• Ensuring data integrity and data security.
• Managing data concurrency.
• Parallel processing support for speed up data entry and online transaction processing used for
applications.
• DB procedures, functions and packages.
Dr.E.F.Codd’s Rules
These rules are used for valuating a product to be called as relational database management systems. Out
of 12 rules, a RDBMS product should satisfy at least 8 rules + rule called rule 0 that must be satisfied.
16
RULE 2: Guaranteed Access
Each and every data in a relational database is guaranteed to be logically accessibility by using to a
combination of table name, primary key value and column name.
17
RULE 10: Integrity Independence
Integrity constraints specific to particular database must be definable in the relational data stored
in the catalog, not in application program.

SYSTEM DESIGN
INPUT DESIGN
Input design is the process of converting user-oriented input to a computer based format. Input
design is a part of overall system design, which requires very careful attention. Often the collection of input
data is the most expensive part of the system. The main objectives of the input design are …
INPUT DATA:
The goal of designing input data is to make entry easy, logical and free from errors as possible. The
entering data entry operators need to know the allocated space for each field; field sequence and which
must match with that in the source document. The format in which the data fields are entered should be
given in the input form. Here data entry is online; it makes use of processor that accepts commands and data
from the operator through a key board. The input required is analyzed by the processor. It is then accepted
or rejected. Input stages include the following processes
• Data Recording
• Data Transcription
• Data Conversion
• Data Verification
• Data Control
• Data Transmission
• Data Correction
One of the aims of the system analyst must be to select data capture method and devices, which
reduce the number of stages so as to reduce both the changes of errors and the cost. Input types, can be
characterized as.
• External
26
• Internal
• Operational
• Computerized
• Interactive
Input files can exist in document form before being input to the computer. Input design is rather
complex since it involves procedures for capturing data as well as inputting it to the computer.
OUTPUT DESIGN
Outputs from computer systems are required primarily to communicate the results of processing to
users. They are also used to provide a permanent copy of these result for latter consultation. Computer
output is the most important and direct source of information to the users. Designing computer output
should proceed in an organized well through out the manner. The right output must be available for the
people who find the system easy o use. The outputs have been defined during the logical design stage. If not,
they should have defined at the beginning of the output designing terms of types of output connect, format,
response etc.
• External outputs
• Internal outputs
• Operational outputs
• Interactive outputs
• Turn around outputs
All screens are informative and interactive in such a way that the user can full fill his requirements
through asking queries.
27
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
effectively. After designing input and output, the analyst must concentrate on database design or how
data should be organized around user requirements. The general objective is to make information access,
easy quick, inexpensive and flexible for other users. During database design the following objectives are
concerned: -
• Controlled Redundancy
• Data independence
• Accurate and integrating
• More information at low cost
• Recovery from failure
• Privacy and security
• Performance
• Ease of learning and use
SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
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.
28
End User Education:
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.
SOFTWARE TESTING
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 assumption
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.
29
CONCLUSION
Our project is only a humble venture to satisfy the needs in an Institution. Several user-friendly
coding has 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. Last but not least it is no the work that played the
ways to success but ALMIGHTY
