INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
Introduction
Business Web Portal can be pronounced as a business community, from where anyone can get any information about any type of company. In today’s world, when any company starts a business then they have updated with every type of information which help them to do their business properly. Anyone or any company can do their registration in this web portal. So details about their company are present in this portal. Any company can get information about other company from here. Different companies can give their different features in this web portal for publicity reason of this company. Different company owners can collect their sponsors and new share holders for their company. There is blog facilities of this web portal is also present. In this blog section customers or persons related with business can give and take their own suggestions, criticisms and advises. The companies not only can post their information, but, also can enter into communication with the other registered companies under the website. This increases the inter company communications and there by can increase trade. Not only this, the portal also benefits establishing coordination among the company sub offices by providing instructions and information via the portal. The portal will therefore also enhance the intra company communications and coordinations among the various branch offices of the site registered companies. In this context, all have to remember one thing that through or by this web portal companies or any businessman can share or fetch only information about business but can not do business with another company. This is a media where companies can make publicity of their company, with their prospectus but can not exchange money or can not do any business deal through this portal.

Objectives
Business world is a very important and completely money oriented industry. So in this field everyone must be updated with the market strategy and other details which will help in the business. So if there is any process which helps business companies for doing their business then it must be very advantageous for every businessman. But if the process is manual then it must be very complicated to handle. So this system is automated system for maintaining business details of different companies. The various tasks that this system is capable of handling are as follows:
Information of several business organization or companies is present here. The
companies who made their registration in this portal have their full information here.
Any outsider or any common man can gather information about any company
from here even the registration payment details which is also present here.
The name, address, contact no, contact person, established year & lots of other
details are available here.
Every company has their own process for doing their business, so that information
is also kept in this portal also.
In today’s world, website is another important way of communication. So every
company has their own website, even more than one. The name of those websites is also kept in this portal.
For expanding their business every company needs more investors and more share
holders. So every company gives information to customers about how to join their company, what is the procedure etc. all that information is also kept in this portal.
This portal also gives facility to the customers to complain (if any) against any
company here.

PROJECT CATEGORY
This project comes under the category of RDBMS based Informative Web Online Application. Definition:- Relational DBMSs (RDBMS) probably have the simplest structure a database can have. In an RDBMS, data is organized in tables. Tables, in turn, consist of records, and records of fields. Each field corresponds to one data item. Two or more tables can be linked (joined) if they have one or more fields in common. RDBMS are easy to use and have flourished in the last decade. They're commonly used on low-end computer systems. In the last few years, however, their use has expanded to more powerful computer systems. Oracle, Informix, and Sybase are some popular RDBMS available in the market.
Most RDBMS perform the following functions: Store data Create and maintain data structures Allow concurrent access to many users Enforce security and privacy Allow extraction and manipulation of stored data Enable data entry and data loading Provide an efficient indexing mechanism for fast extraction of selected data Provide consistency among different records Protect stored data from loss by backup and recovery process
5
The reasons why this project comes under RDBMS category:a. Data model (Entity relationship Diagram) is used to represent the entire situation. b. Tables are created on the basis of model used. c. Data redundancy is removed by normalization. d. Use of Structured Query Language to manipulate the data storage e. Use of Backend [SQL Server] storage that can store, retrieve & manipulate data & use of reporting tool via the Front end [.NET] for report generation. f. Use of join queries to access with some common field.
The reasons why this project comes under Internet category:As the application is a web portal so it is obvious that it is concerned with online features. It provides information of the various companies & business houses and thus behaves as an informative application. Again these information are provided online and thus it is rightly categorized under informative web online application. Moreover online transactions are carried out and these are done by the supporting RDBMS.

Software Configuration:Tools used to develop the software:ASP.net SQL Server Windows XP MS Word, Paint. Facilities of using Windows XP: With the above mentioned hardware some operating system & software are required. Here Windows XP is the desired Operating System because Visual Basic is a GUI based language and any Window based OS, unlike DOS, supports graphical user interface features. Thus Windows XP is chosen as the well-suited platform for the development of the project. However the project could be well executed under any Windows 32 – bit platform with some minor changes arising due to the supporting features of the operating system for the tools used for the development of the project. 7
Facilities of using ASP.Net: • Integration: It allows Windows applications, Web applications, XML Web Services and Windows Services to be integrated easily with one another. • Great Tool Support: Provides one of the strong debugging tools for applications. The Enterprise versions of Visual Studio .NET deliver lifecycle features to help organizations plan, analyze, design, build, test, and coordinate teams that develop Windows/Web applications. • Microsoft .NET Outperforms J2EE: Head to head comparison metrics with web application developed using .NET framework and J2EE are below: • .NET application are 28x faster, • .NET application used only 1/6th processor utilization • .NET application require only 1/4th line of code when compared to application developed on J2EE platform. • Reliable: Automatic Memory Leak, Deadlock and Crash Protection. ASP.NET automatically detects and recovers from errors like deadlocks and memory leaks to ensure your application is always available to the users. • CLR: CLR stands for Common Language Runtime. It handles runtime services, including language integration, security & memory management so that developers can focus on the applications development. • Class Libraries: More than 4500 classes. Provides reusable code for most common tasks, including data access, XML web Services, Web and Windows forms. • XML Web Services: XML Web services allow applications to communicate and share data over the Internet, regardless of operating system or programming language. ASP.NET makes exposing and calling XML Web Services simple. Any class can be converted into an XML Web Service with just a few lines of code, and can be called by any SOAP client. • ASP.NET and IIS is the currently the World's fastest Web application server. • Language Independent: Application developed on .NET framework is language– independent. Developers have freedom to write their code with the programming language they are comfortable with.
8
• Configuration File: It provides a configuration files (web.config for web applications and app.config for window applications) which is an XML file to save the application configurable information like database connection string, error handling information, session information and many more. This information can be changed anytime without having to reboot the server. Facilities of using SQL Server 2000: SQL Server 2000 provides the following benefit. o o o o o High Storage Database Good compatibility with Visual Basic Data Security is high Easy to install and configure Easy to learn
Facilities of using other tools (MS Word, Paint): Create and save a document; open an existing document; editing techniques. Navigate in a large document by using the mouse and keyboard Edit a document using sophisticated techniques, including moving and copying text within a document and between documents. Apply and remove character and paragraph formatting. Using tab and create and modify table structure Adjust margins, add and delete page breaks, and create headers and footers. Drawing tools are also available here so using different types of colors and auto shapes the write-up can be well documented very easily. Page appearance can also be controlled by adjusting –margins, page break, and adding headers and footers. Printing tools are also available for printing a document page set up can also be adjusted.

PROBLEM DEFINITION, REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATIONS, PROJECT PLANNING AND SCHEDULING
Problem Definition
Once upon a time there are so many problems in communication. And whenever it comes to the matter of big company then it is a big problem if they can not communicate between each other. Due to the mailing and phone line problem people and companies can not Communication problems means not mailing problems but the proper communication with proper source for doing proper work or in short getting proper information. In a company there are so many problems. The company can not increase their business due to labors problem, outsourcing problem etc. If there are so many problems which hamper the business of the company and the company can not solve the problems then it becomes a big trouble. The company can not understand with whom they should consult for solving the problems. These are some communication problems. A little company can not increase their business without the help of good business strategy. If the company can not communicate with proper company/person who gives the proper advice then it also becomes a big problem. This is also a communication problem. So if there are these types of problems in a business sector then it is very important for implementing a system which can solve these problems.
10
Requirement Specifications
According to the problem definition there are also some suggested solutions. After concept of internet implemented any type of communication is become very easy. So for solving these problems a web based system must be implemented. The facility of using web based application is the following: In internet searching is very easy. So if anyone has many problems then also there is no problem for searching help for the related topics. This system is place where only companies are making their registration, so there is only company related suggestions and information are present. Nobody can not confuse to find there help topic. Any company can get information about other company’s business strategy and other facilities, seeing which they can become interested to do business with that company. For these proposed requirements this system is very useful. So this web based portal for company can give many companies for increasing their business. The web portal will provide the following functionalities:
Register various companies all over the globe and allow to post them their profiles, website links etc.
Establish communication among different companies to provide information exchange and thereby increase business yields.
Provide a blog for information exchange among the various executives of different companies along with the scope for other common users to gather experiences and job scopes by participation in the blog postings.
Provide upload options that will enable the companies to upload their details related to work activities, business achievements etc.

Testing
Implementation & Maintenance
When any manual system is converted into automated system then the SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) is followed. Why the system is to be made and what reason lies behind the making of this software can be known from the Waterfall Model. A brief discussion of the process is mentioned below:
Preliminary Investigation and Feasibility Study: Software demand must be clarified properly before considering the Systems analysis and the Project should be checked properly that it is completely technically, economically and operationally feasible system or not.
12
System Analysis: Software demand is accepted; its cost, precedence, completion time, and personnel requirement are estimated. Some tools are used in analysis like Data Flow Diagram (DFD), on-site examination and questionnaires.
System Design: In this stage how the problem will be solved technically is decided. Number of modules, hardware, software, algorithms etc. is decided in this phase.
Coding: In this phase the actual complete project code is developed. With the written code segment the comments and description corresponding to code also should be given.
Testing: As the coding phase precedes every unit module is tested before being delivered to the next phase. All the modules that have been developed before and tested individually are integrated in this phase. Final Software is then tested under System Testing.
Implementation & Maintenance: Once the System passes all the test during System testing the system is delivered to the Customer where it has to be implemented successfully. Maintenance phase includes addition of modules, modification of the hardware and software.

SCOPE OF THE SOLUTION
Business companies find it difficult to perform communication over a wide geographical region at a very less amount of time. Few of the popular mechanisms used for communication are via phone lines, Video Conferencing etc. But all these methodologies get more expensive over time. This website provides a simple solution to this problem. Companies all over the world can communicate with each other and share views via the internet. The various features provided by this website are as follows:
Information of several business organization or companies can be maintained. Information regarding any company can be available to the common public The name, address, contact no, contact person, established year & lots of other
details are available here.
Every company has their own process for doing their business, so that information
is also kept in this portal also.
For expanding their business every company needs more investors and more share
holders. So every company gives information to customers about how to join their company, what is the procedure etc. all that information is also kept in this portal.
The blog facility for the companies is also present in this portal. Here anyone can
make comment on any working step of any company and also can give suggestion to any company for doing good business and make profit in their field. And more such features justify the feasibility of the system.

ANALYSIS
The analysis proceeds with the formulation of the Dataflow Diagrams and the Entity Relationship Diagram. The Dataflow Diagrams (DFDs) consists of the Context Diagram, the level1 dataflow diagram and the level2 dataflow diagrams. The DFDs describes the functional activities of the components processes of the system. The entity – relationship diagram describes the scenario of how the entities comprising the system are related to each other. The entity – relationship diagram forms the base of the database table design.

Implementation Methodology
Since this is a web based project thus the main components of these projects are the web pages. They are the building blocks of the entire system. The user in the internet all over the planet accessed these web pages and retrieves and manipulates data.
To implement such a system which is globally accessed first we need to install a web process application which will allow the web pages to be globally visible by providing a directory which globally shared. Apart from this it also provides a background process which makes the website running.
After the system has been developed first it needs to be placed in a web server. The owner of the website will buy internet space from the provider. Later with the IP address of the provider the database owner registers a domain name for the website. This domain name refers to the IP address of the server computer which is actually hosting the website. This information is kept in a special kind of server known as the DNS. After this whole process is completed a web page can be viewed over the internet.

IMPLEMENTATION OF SEURITY MECHANISMS AT VARIOUS LEVELS
Every system whatever it is must be secured from every type of unfairness. This system contains many important, valuable data and information. So this system must be equipped with all kinds of security mechanisms and during implementation of this security mechanism some points are should be kept in mind. They are the followings:
All members who give and take information through this portal must have registration in this portal. This registration indicates the legality of the user for fetching information and using this system. The system must be protected with specific user name and password. With this facility any unwanted user can not use this system and can not change any data of any company. Though this portal does not handle with money oriented dealing so there is no chance of cyber robbery but any hacker can takes some offensive means to harm anyone’s business in other ways.
All these above mentioned are the security mechanisms which should be taken in this system.
45
FUTURE SCOPE & FURTHER ENHANCEMENT OF THE PROJECT
Future Scope of the Project
A system which helps business houses and companies in doing their business has a great future to shine. Every company have to do their publicity because still when other companies do not come to know about their strategy, their business process and facilities till then no one can do business with them. At that situation this system can give companies to do their publicity and helps to gather information about other companies. So with the help of portal companies take their decision about business very sincerely. So in future this business web portal will be very famous among the business world and companies. Through this portal any company can not do their business with other company. In very short, we can say about this portal that this is a way to make publicity of business but can not carry out their business through this portal. This portal must be more advanced and updated with that type of facility with the help of which any company can do their business with other company. This system must be consisted with video conferencing type facility with the help of which companies can do their meeting here. Important meetings and business dealing is also done by this system. If this type of facility is present here then this system will become more popular and more useful to all business houses and companies.
Further Enhancement of the Project
In today’s world, website is the best way to communicate with anyone. So with the help of this portal any company can fetch information from anyplace of the world. That company can make their business better with the help of that information gathering from this portal. In future enhancements can be made to the existing website so as to increase its features. Certain enhancements that could be added are: Instant Message servicing Chatting Video conferencing E-Commerce dealings 46

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
Introduction
Business Web Portal can be pronounced as a business community, from where anyone can get any information about any type of company. In today’s world, when any company starts a business then they have updated with every type of information which help them to do their business properly. Anyone or any company can do their registration in this web portal. So details about their company are present in this portal. Any company can get information about other company from here. Different companies can give their different features in this web portal for publicity reason of this company. Different company owners can collect their sponsors and new share holders for their company. There is blog facilities of this web portal is also present. In this blog section customers or persons related with business can give and take their own suggestions, criticisms and advises. The companies not only can post their information, but, also can enter into communication with the other registered companies under the website. This increases the inter company communications and there by can increase trade. Not only this, the portal also benefits establishing coordination among the company sub offices by providing instructions and information via the portal. The portal will therefore also enhance the intra company communications and coordinations among the various branch offices of the site registered companies. In this context, all have to remember one thing that through or by this web portal companies or any businessman can share or fetch only information about business but can not do business with another company. This is a media where companies can make publicity of their company, with their prospectus but can not exchange money or can not do any business deal through this portal.

Objectives
Business world is a very important and completely money oriented industry. So in this field everyone must be updated with the market strategy and other details which will help in the business. So if there is any process which helps business companies for doing their business then it must be very advantageous for every businessman. But if the process is manual then it must be very complicated to handle. So this system is automated system for maintaining business details of different companies. The various tasks that this system is capable of handling are as follows:
Information of several business organization or companies is present here. The
companies who made their registration in this portal have their full information here.
Any outsider or any common man can gather information about any company
from here even the registration payment details which is also present here.
The name, address, contact no, contact person, established year & lots of other
details are available here.
Every company has their own process for doing their business, so that information
is also kept in this portal also.
In today’s world, website is another important way of communication. So every
company has their own website, even more than one. The name of those websites is also kept in this portal.
For expanding their business every company needs more investors and more share
holders. So every company gives information to customers about how to join their company, what is the procedure etc. all that information is also kept in this portal.
This portal also gives facility to the customers to complain (if any) against any
company here.
This portal also benefits the common users as they can give their qualification and
job experience information on registration to the website along with their address and contact numbers. This will open a scope for job appointments and interview callings of theses common users by the site registered companies.
The blog facility for the companies is also present in this portal. Here anyone can
make comment on any working step of any company and also can give suggestion to any company for doing good business and make profit in their field. The whole information is entered and updated by administrator. And the comments made by those users who made their registration in this portal 3

PROJECT CATEGORY
This project comes under the category of RDBMS based Informative Web Online Application. Definition:- Relational DBMSs (RDBMS) probably have the simplest structure a database can have. In an RDBMS, data is organized in tables. Tables, in turn, consist of records, and records of fields. Each field corresponds to one data item. Two or more tables can be linked (joined) if they have one or more fields in common. RDBMS are easy to use and have flourished in the last decade. They're commonly used on low-end computer systems. In the last few years, however, their use has expanded to more powerful computer systems. Oracle, Informix, and Sybase are some popular RDBMS available in the market.
Most RDBMS perform the following functions: Store data Create and maintain data structures Allow concurrent access to many users Enforce security and privacy Allow extraction and manipulation of stored data Enable data entry and data loading Provide an efficient indexing mechanism for fast extraction of selected data Provide consistency among different records Protect stored data from loss by backup and recovery process
5
The reasons why this project comes under RDBMS category:a. Data model (Entity relationship Diagram) is used to represent the entire situation. b. Tables are created on the basis of model used. c. Data redundancy is removed by normalization. d. Use of Structured Query Language to manipulate the data storage e. Use of Backend [SQL Server] storage that can store, retrieve & manipulate data & use of reporting tool via the Front end [.NET] for report generation. f. Use of join queries to access with some common field.
The reasons why this project comes under Internet category:As the application is a web portal so it is obvious that it is concerned with online features. It provides information of the various companies & business houses and thus behaves as an informative application. Again these information are provided online and thus it is rightly categorized under informative web online application. Moreover online transactions are carried out and these are done by the supporting RDBMS.

Software Configuration:Tools used to develop the software:ASP.net SQL Server Windows XP MS Word, Paint. Facilities of using Windows XP: With the above mentioned hardware some operating system & software are required. Here Windows XP is the desired Operating System because Visual Basic is a GUI based language and any Window based OS, unlike DOS, supports graphical user interface features. Thus Windows XP is chosen as the well-suited platform for the development of the project. However the project could be well executed under any Windows 32 – bit platform with some minor changes arising due to the supporting features of the operating system for the tools used for the development of the project. 7
Facilities of using ASP.Net: • Integration: It allows Windows applications, Web applications, XML Web Services and Windows Services to be integrated easily with one another. • Great Tool Support: Provides one of the strong debugging tools for applications. The Enterprise versions of Visual Studio .NET deliver lifecycle features to help organizations plan, analyze, design, build, test, and coordinate teams that develop Windows/Web applications. • Microsoft .NET Outperforms J2EE: Head to head comparison metrics with web application developed using .NET framework and J2EE are below: • .NET application are 28x faster, • .NET application used only 1/6th processor utilization • .NET application require only 1/4th line of code when compared to application developed on J2EE platform. • Reliable: Automatic Memory Leak, Deadlock and Crash Protection. ASP.NET automatically detects and recovers from errors like deadlocks and memory leaks to ensure your application is always available to the users. • CLR: CLR stands for Common Language Runtime. It handles runtime services, including language integration, security & memory management so that developers can focus on the applications development. • Class Libraries: More than 4500 classes. Provides reusable code for most common tasks, including data access, XML web Services, Web and Windows forms. • XML Web Services: XML Web services allow applications to communicate and share data over the Internet, regardless of operating system or programming language. ASP.NET makes exposing and calling XML Web Services simple. Any class can be converted into an XML Web Service with just a few lines of code, and can be called by any SOAP client. • ASP.NET and IIS is the currently the World's fastest Web application server. • Language Independent: Application developed on .NET framework is language– independent. Developers have freedom to write their code with the programming language they are comfortable with.
8
• Configuration File: It provides a configuration files (web.config for web applications and app.config for window applications) which is an XML file to save the application configurable information like database connection string, error handling information, session information and many more. This information can be changed anytime without having to reboot the server. Facilities of using SQL Server 2000: SQL Server 2000 provides the following benefit. o o o o o High Storage Database Good compatibility with Visual Basic Data Security is high Easy to install and configure Easy to learn
Facilities of using other tools (MS Word, Paint): Create and save a document; open an existing document; editing techniques. Navigate in a large document by using the mouse and keyboard Edit a document using sophisticated techniques, including moving and copying text within a document and between documents. Apply and remove character and paragraph formatting. Using tab and create and modify table structure Adjust margins, add and delete page breaks, and create headers and footers. Drawing tools are also available here so using different types of colors and auto shapes the write-up can be well documented very easily. Page appearance can also be controlled by adjusting –margins, page break, and adding headers and footers. Printing tools are also available for printing a document page set up can also be adjusted.

PROBLEM DEFINITION, REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATIONS, PROJECT PLANNING AND SCHEDULING
Problem Definition
Once upon a time there are so many problems in communication. And whenever it comes to the matter of big company then it is a big problem if they can not communicate between each other. Due to the mailing and phone line problem people and companies can not Communication problems means not mailing problems but the proper communication with proper source for doing proper work or in short getting proper information. In a company there are so many problems. The company can not increase their business due to labors problem, outsourcing problem etc. If there are so many problems which hamper the business of the company and the company can not solve the problems then it becomes a big trouble. The company can not understand with whom they should consult for solving the problems. These are some communication problems. A little company can not increase their business without the help of good business strategy. If the company can not communicate with proper company/person who gives the proper advice then it also becomes a big problem. This is also a communication problem. So if there are these types of problems in a business sector then it is very important for implementing a system which can solve these problems.
10
Requirement Specifications
According to the problem definition there are also some suggested solutions. After concept of internet implemented any type of communication is become very easy. So for solving these problems a web based system must be implemented. The facility of using web based application is the following: In internet searching is very easy. So if anyone has many problems then also there is no problem for searching help for the related topics. This system is place where only companies are making their registration, so there is only company related suggestions and information are present. Nobody can not confuse to find there help topic. Any company can get information about other company’s business strategy and other facilities, seeing which they can become interested to do business with that company. For these proposed requirements this system is very useful. So this web based portal for company can give many companies for increasing their business. The web portal will provide the following functionalities:
Register various companies all over the globe and allow to post them their profiles, website links etc.
Establish communication among different companies to provide information exchange and thereby increase business yields.
Provide a blog for information exchange among the various executives of different companies along with the scope for other common users to gather experiences and job scopes by participation in the blog postings.
Provide upload options that will enable the companies to upload their details related to work activities, business achievements etc.
Provide upload options that will help in article, journal, newsletter postings by the registered site users.
On a whole the website will provide all features that will enhance inter and intra company communications with information exchanges among the company users and the normal site users. 11

Preliminary Investigation & Feasibility Study
System Analysis
System Design
Coding
Testing
Implementation & Maintenance
When any manual system is converted into automated system then the SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) is followed. Why the system is to be made and what reason lies behind the making of this software can be known from the Waterfall Model. A brief discussion of the process is mentioned below:
Preliminary Investigation and Feasibility Study: Software demand must be clarified properly before considering the Systems analysis and the Project should be checked properly that it is completely technically, economically and operationally feasible system or not.
12
System Analysis: Software demand is accepted; its cost, precedence, completion time, and personnel requirement are estimated. Some tools are used in analysis like Data Flow Diagram (DFD), on-site examination and questionnaires.
System Design: In this stage how the problem will be solved technically is decided. Number of modules, hardware, software, algorithms etc. is decided in this phase.
Coding: In this phase the actual complete project code is developed. With the written code segment the comments and description corresponding to code also should be given.
Testing: As the coding phase precedes every unit module is tested before being delivered to the next phase. All the modules that have been developed before and tested individually are integrated in this phase. Final Software is then tested under System Testing.
Implementation & Maintenance: Once the System passes all the test during System testing the system is delivered to the Customer where it has to be implemented successfully. Maintenance phase includes addition of modules, modification of the hardware and software.

SCOPE OF THE SOLUTION
Business companies find it difficult to perform communication over a wide geographical region at a very less amount of time. Few of the popular mechanisms used for communication are via phone lines, Video Conferencing etc. But all these methodologies get more expensive over time. This website provides a simple solution to this problem. Companies all over the world can communicate with each other and share views via the internet. The various features provided by this website are as follows:
Information of several business organization or companies can be maintained. Information regarding any company can be available to the common public The name, address, contact no, contact person, established year & lots of other
details are available here.
Every company has their own process for doing their business, so that information
is also kept in this portal also.
For expanding their business every company needs more investors and more share
holders. So every company gives information to customers about how to join their company, what is the procedure etc. all that information is also kept in this portal.
The blog facility for the companies is also present in this portal. Here anyone can
make comment on any working step of any company and also can give suggestion to any company for doing good business and make profit in their field. And more such features justify the feasibility of the system.

ANALYSIS
The analysis proceeds with the formulation of the Dataflow Diagrams and the Entity Relationship Diagram. The Dataflow Diagrams (DFDs) consists of the Context Diagram, the level1 dataflow diagram and the level2 dataflow diagrams. The DFDs describes the functional activities of the components processes of the system. The entity – relationship diagram describes the scenario of how the entities comprising the system are related to each other. The entity – relationship diagram forms the base of the database table design.

Implementation Methodology
Since this is a web based project thus the main components of these projects are the web pages. They are the building blocks of the entire system. The user in the internet all over the planet accessed these web pages and retrieves and manipulates data.
To implement such a system which is globally accessed first we need to install a web process application which will allow the web pages to be globally visible by providing a directory which globally shared. Apart from this it also provides a background process which makes the website running.
After the system has been developed first it needs to be placed in a web server. The owner of the website will buy internet space from the provider. Later with the IP address of the provider the database owner registers a domain name for the website. This domain name refers to the IP address of the server computer which is actually hosting the website. This information is kept in a special kind of server known as the DNS. After this whole process is completed a web page can be viewed over the internet.

IMPLEMENTATION OF SEURITY MECHANISMS AT VARIOUS LEVELS
Every system whatever it is must be secured from every type of unfairness. This system contains many important, valuable data and information. So this system must be equipped with all kinds of security mechanisms and during implementation of this security mechanism some points are should be kept in mind. They are the followings:
All members who give and take information through this portal must have registration in this portal. This registration indicates the legality of the user for fetching information and using this system. The system must be protected with specific user name and password. With this facility any unwanted user can not use this system and can not change any data of any company. Though this portal does not handle with money oriented dealing so there is no chance of cyber robbery but any hacker can takes some offensive means to harm anyone’s business in other ways.
All these above mentioned are the security mechanisms which should be taken in this system.
45
FUTURE SCOPE & FURTHER ENHANCEMENT OF THE PROJECT
Future Scope of the Project
A system which helps business houses and companies in doing their business has a great future to shine. Every company have to do their publicity because still when other companies do not come to know about their strategy, their business process and facilities till then no one can do business with them. At that situation this system can give companies to do their publicity and helps to gather information about other companies. So with the help of portal companies take their decision about business very sincerely. So in future this business web portal will be very famous among the business world and companies. Through this portal any company can not do their business with other company. In very short, we can say about this portal that this is a way to make publicity of business but can not carry out their business through this portal. This portal must be more advanced and updated with that type of facility with the help of which any company can do their business with other company. This system must be consisted with video conferencing type facility with the help of which companies can do their meeting here. Important meetings and business dealing is also done by this system. If this type of facility is present here then this system will become more popular and more useful to all business houses and companies.
Further Enhancement of the Project
In today’s world, website is the best way to communicate with anyone. So with the help of this portal any company can fetch information from anyplace of the world. That company can make their business better with the help of that information gathering from this portal. In future enhancements can be made to the existing website so as to increase its features. Certain enhancements that could be added are: Instant Message servicing Chatting Video conferencing E-Commerce dealings 46
