Project Proposal
The idea our group came up with for the project is an application to model an online shopping system similar to Amazon. The application will deal with customers choosing items to buy from a different variety such as books, computer supplies, music etc. The database will keep track of the customer details buying items from the shop. Also there will be a record of suppliers for the different items along with stock details. Also, if the items need to be shipped, we will maintain the shipping details for the items. Once we start creating E-R diagrams I’m sure we will find more sources of information. We believe that this type of application will give us lots of data to model. The application that we plan to create will allow a user who in this case could either be a customer or an employee to perform all of the CRUD (Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete) actions on the data contained within the database. There will be a login differentiating customers and employees and each can perform specific functions. A new customer can register, select items to buy, pay for them and request them to be shipped. An employee, on the other hand could check the supplies, add or delete information regarding the products and retrieve any information regarding customers or products if necessary. Our application would consist of a basic Graphical User Interface that will be intuitive to use. The data entered in the GUI will used to populate the database using JDBC to communicate between our application and the database. This will be a user friendly system to manage the working of an online shop.
