Executive Summary
Web based courseware management system is intended to manage learning process online. The goal is to provide the functionality that improves the overall learning experience of students and helps professors or trainers to make students aware of new ways of presenting material. It aims at making the learning process an effective one for each learner. The project has been planned to be having the view of distributed architecture, with centralized storage. Using the constructs of MS-SQL Server and all the user interfaces has been designed using the ASP.Net technologies. The database connectivity is implemented using the
xiv

“SQL Connection” methodology. The standards of security and data protective mechanism have been given a big choice for proper usage. The application takes care of different modules and their associated reports, which are produced as per the applicable strategies and standards that are put forward by the administrative staff. The entire project has been developed keeping in view of the distributed client server computing technology, in mind. The specification has been normalized to eliminate all the anomalies that may arise due to the database transaction that are executed by the general users and the organizational administration. The user interfaces are browser specific to give distributed accessibility for the overall system. The internal database has been selected as MS-SQL server 2005. The basic constructs of tablespaces, clusters and indexes have been exploited to provide higher consistency and reliability for the data storage. The MS-SQL server 2005 was a choice as it provides the constructs of high-level reliability and security. The total front end was dominated using the ASP.Net technologies. At all proper levels high care was taken to check that the system manages the data consistency with proper business rules or validations. The database connectivity was implemented using the latest “SQL Connection” technology provided by Microsoft Corporation. The authentication and authorization was crosschecked at all the relevant stages. The user level accessibility has been restricted into two zones namely.
