Information describing the CIS computer lab needs to be centralized and easily accessible. CIS students and faculty can’t easily find out when the lab is available for a class or lab work Lab must be accessible from on and off campus Ms. Moore should maintain lab schedules Faculty should be able to reserve the room through the system Students should be able to see current streaming video of the lab Ms. Moore should be able to access the lab remotely, and securely Dr. Henson, Dr. Kesh, Dr. Sam, and Ms. Moore will be the primary users of this system The network contains • Servers Domain Controller, File Server, Web Server • Client computers • Wired access • Wireless access • VoIP • Mobile access • Remote access via VPN • Streaming webcam access • Network printing Router problems • IP Configuration issues Server problems • Blue screen of death Device problems • Camera, VoIP For security, we set up a firewall For storage services, we have shared drives and server back-up Identity services are covered by setting up user accounts via Windows Server 2008 Windows XP Windows Vista Windows 7 Enterprise Windows Server 2008 A video delivery system has been set up to provide a real-time view of the lab. VoIP is also set up so calls can be made between professors/administrators. Server-side tools such as a calendar, shared drives, and email exchange have been set up in the collaboration layer The applications developed for this project address the needs for the CIS department. They can be easily accessed from many locations, using several different devices. Open-source: free of cost Works well with other technologies used Easily accessed from remote locations as well as mobile platforms Lightweight Handles all required functionalities Easy to code/manipulate • i.e. Dreamweaver, Notepad, TextPad Previous Experience • Faster Development time Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP Technologies work very well together Quick and simple to install and setup Easy to configure Previous experience • Faster Development Time The following diagrams will explain our design decisions. Used as a non-web based application. Problems encountered during development • ODBC • Updating Database Solution • Configured ODBC for MySQL • Added Buttons to take user to PHP site where user can view, add, delete, update from there. Problems encountered: • Getting off schedule • Hardware and OS difficulties • Needing additional equipment Solutions • Develop scrum tactics, sprint the last two weeks • Spent extra time overcoming hardware issues • A few of us made extra trips to Dr. Henson to gather additional equipment
