Right now, the customers (individual or event organizing person) must contact each vendor one by one through phone calls or direct meetings with them. This is leading to frequent miscommunication, delays, and extra work. This project aims to build an Event Planning Support System (EPSS) that brings customers and local vendors together on one platform, to confirm the services of the specific vendors as early as possible according to their availability, which supports reducing the planning time with other works and making booking simpler and clearer. This project focuses on a web-based platform for personal events, such as weddings, birthdays, and family gatherings. There are three types of users in the EPSS, such as Customers, Vendors, and Administrators and each has different types of activities. Customers search for and request to book vendors at a time based on their requirements of services, send messages, and manage their bookings. Vendors can list their services, update their availability, and confirm bookings according to their schedules. The Administrator maintains everything to keep the platform running smoothly. The primary features of the system include vendor discovery, booking and canceling of services, feedback, and payment management. The project follows an iterative waterfall approach to development, and a mid-range design strategy was chosen to balance features with resources. The system is built using Laravel as the backend framework, PHP for server-side coding, and MySQL for database management. Frontend technologies are HTML5, CSS3, JS, jQuery, Ajax, and Bootsrap5, ensuring it is scalable and user-friendly. Additional features include notifications and profile management. Testing and evaluation are essential in developing EPSS. Manual testing was performed to assess the system’s functionality, performance, and user experience. An online survey was also done to check usability and key features. The results showed that users were happy with the registration, vendor search, and booking management. They also liked the system’s responsiveness. While the booking request and cancellation processes were positive, some users suggested improvements in the advanced payment process and rating feature. Users recommended better notifications, an improved calendar, and adding online payment options. These suggestions will help make the system better and improve the event planning experience in future development as well Tue, 03 Jun 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://dl.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/jspui/handle/123456789/4991 2025-06-03T00:00:00Z https://dl.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/jspui/handle/123456789/4990 Title: Academic Program Proposal Management System for QAC-UGC Authors: Sandeepa, S S Abstract: ABSTRACT The Academic Program Proposal Management System was developed to address inefficiencies in the Quality Assurance Council of the University Grants Commission (QAC-UGC) for handling new academic program proposals. The traditional manual process relied on paper-based submissions and email communication, leading to delays, lack of transparency, and difficulty in tracking approvals. This system provides a web-based platform where universities can submit proposals, track their status, receive structured feedback, and ensure compliance with QAC-UGC regulations through automated validation checks. The system streamlines the proposal review workflow, enabling Program Coordinators, Deans, Vice Chancellors, and UGC officials to collaborate efficiently. Key features include role-based access control, automated notifications, real-time tracking, and proposal version management. The development followed a structured software engineering approach, incorporating form validation, role-based workflows, and approval tracking mechanisms to ensure seamless proposal management. Testing was conducted through unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT) to verify system functionality, reliability, and usability. The evaluation of the system demonstrated significant improvements in processing speed, accuracy, and approval transparency, reducing human errors and ensuring compliance with academic policies. The system enables seamless coordination between universities and the UGC, making the approval process more structured and efficient. Future enhancements could include AI-powered proposal analysis, mobile-friendly access, and advanced data analytics for trend analysis and decision-making. This system revolutionizes academic proposal management by automating workflows, ensuring regulatory compliance, and providing a user-friendly interface, ultimately improving efficiency for all stakeholders involved.

Currently, these critical processes rely on manual, paper-based systems, leading to significant inefficiencies, delayed reporting, and potential safety risks. QuarryMaster addresses these challenges by implementing a comprehensive web-based system that digitalizes and streamlines the entire workflow from permit application to blast monitoring. The system implements a hierarchical user structure incorporating four key stakeholder groups: GSMB officers (administrators), site engineers, explosive controllers, and explosive dealers. Using modern web technologies - Angular for the frontend, Node.js with Express.js for the backend, and MySQL for database management - QuarryMaster provides a secure, role-based platform for managing quarry operations. The system features a complete workflow for explosive management, including permit applications, quota requests, purchase management, and operational tracking, enhanced by Leaflet map integration for spatial visualization of quarry sites. A significant feature of QuarryMaster is its district-based access control system, ensuring that explosive controllers and dealers can only operate within their designated jurisdictions. The system implements strict validation workflows where site engineers can only request explosive quotas with approved permits, and purchases can only be made within approved quota limits. Real-time tracking of all transactions, automated status updates, and comprehensive audit trails ensure regulatory compliance and enhance operational safety. The implementation demonstrates significant improvements over the manual system, including streamlined permit processing, enhanced inventory tracking, and improved stakeholder communication. The system's modular architecture allows for scalability and future enhancements while maintaining secure and efficient operations. By digitalizing these critical processes, QuarryMaster not only improves operational efficiency but also enhances safety compliance in Sri Lanka's quarry industry.

To address this, a comprehensive IT help desk ticketing system was developed and implemented. The system is designed to provide a structured and automated approach to managing IT support requests across all IRD branches. The primary goal of the project is to streamline the process of issue reporting, tracking, and resolution. Key features of the system include automated ticket generation, categorization based on issue type, prioritization by urgency and impact, real-time status tracking, email notifications, and a complete history of reported issues. The system also incorporates advanced reporting and analytics tools to support performance monitoring and decision-making. As a result, the IRD has significantly improved its response times, reduced manual workload, and enhanced user satisfaction. IT management can now identify recurring issues more effectively and allocate resources based on data-driven insights. The system ensures higher operational efficiency and promotes continuous improvement in IT service delivery. This project uses modern web technologies and follows best practices in IT service management to build a reliable and scalable support system for the IRD. It helps improve how IT issues are handled and creates a strong foundation for future improvements and digital upgrades.
