Abstract: Organizations from across a variety of industries are embracing software systems and applications, realizing the enormous competitive advantages through accuracy, reduced cycle times and increased customer service. Systems and applications developed by a thousand and one different vendors are running on diverse operating systems and platforms in a typical organization. Nonavailability of standard commands or methodologies for administering heterogeneous systems and their applications result in the administrator needing to be aware of ample commands. In this endeavor the author proposes application vendors to comply with a standard interface so that a single series of unique commands could be utilized in a system administration, immaterial to the application. Although the requirement can be fulfilled through a tool with support for the required features the author has introduced a Systems Administration Framework, which is capable of administering different systems in a heterogeneous environment and is operational over the Internet. Initially the thesis explores the background and available technologies, design issues to be tackled and development issues in the central system administration process. The main reason for the framework to be introduced is the adaptability to any environment within the given conditions. In the proposed Framework, Web Services has been chosen since it is an immerging technology in distributed computing which appears to be well suited to serve the purpose of the per-said framework. Accordingly each server to be managed exposes its own Web Service to the external environment while the Management Server can invoke the administration process and behave as a single point of administration. In conclusion the thesis presents a comprehensive framework to strengthen the system administration task.

Abstract: This document presents the analysis, design, and development of a web based content management system (CMS), that is being carried out to fulfill the individual project requirement of MSC (IT) of UCSC. Although CMS are gaining popularity among many, they do not address all user expectations; instead most of them address needs of enterprise level users, requiring shared/dedicated private servers, or non-private servers. Thus those who cannot afford this financially or technologically are at a disadvantage. The solution documented in this report attempts to bring CMS into this category of users. Specifically, the solution is a CMS with a Microsoft Access backend with most required set of features. This enables above discussed users to use CMS with the ease of plug-n-play, in a shared/dedicated non-private web-hosting environment. The solution CMS is named “myCMS” and its default installation will provide users with a sample web portal. Using the administration interface of the application, pages can be added (deleted or modified), and modules can be added (deleted or modified) to pages. Logging with either administrator or editor login credentials enables module contents to be added (deleted or modified) too. Administration interface provides for creation of user accounts and roles as well. These functionalities directly address the development objectives of the solution. The OOAD methodology was adopted for this project. The requirements were captured in use cases and analyzed in sequence diagrams along with the analysis class diagram. They are presented in the report. Database and class designing are also presented in the report, before presenting implementation and deployment aspects of the solution. The solution CMS does not require a server based DBMS; it uses a PC-DBMS. This set up requires only a web space where ASP.NET is supported. Thus the final solution, aptly named “myCMS” successfully meets all documented objectives. Key words: web-based systems; web-based technologies; content management; web sites; content management systems; CMS.

The earnest consideration has put on this scenario to full fill elementary needs. Because of that ICT plus Mobile, based solutions have achieved remarkable and revolutionary milestones relatively and comprehensively rather than other technologies. The objective of this project is to provide the adequate and complete location based information of landmarks and all the auxiliary functions for a typical mobile user in the his or her walking area or desired territory. Basic principals, techniques of Global Positioning System (GPS) and mobile computing strategies are predominately deployed for the entire solution provider The Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) Application branded as “GPS AIDED MOBILE NAVIGATOR” provides users to find the present geographical location of the terminal and creates area maps. In addition to that the mobile users are facilitated with finding the precise location and related information of Hotels, Restaurants, Banks, Nearest Police Stations, Super Markets or Shopping Malls, Cinema Theatres, Museums, Traffic Conditions, Merchant Buildings, Railway Stations, Bus Stations, Public Buildings, Route Information, Shortest Paths, Sacred and other significant Places etc. We analyzed the basic requirements and then watched out the existing environment and applied technologies in Sri Lanka as well as in Japan and other countries. Development has been done using Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.3 runs on Java Run Time Environment. Mobile Information Device profile 2.0, Connected Limited Device Configuration 1.1 and JSR -179 Location API are the major components. Product evaluation was justified by deploying the product to miscellaneous users. In this appraisal only the user friendliness and readability has to be improved with the evolving technology due to the lack of familiarity of general users only. Authorization has to be gained from Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (TRC) for the Total Deployment for the user community.

Abstract: Banking happens to be the core thing in the business world and it becomes more complex with the various requirements among people. In order to minimize the complexity of various transactions among them the vision is to upgrade the techniques used. Emerging and fast growing IT industry seeks solutions for these things usually and it became the major survivor of most of the things related to businesses. Making some of the selected banking transactions more quick and efficient is the main purpose for developing the MBS. MBS is a mobile phone solution which allows the bank customer to perform advanced banking tasks like transferring funds, getting mini statements, getting account balances and making cheque book requests. This is done in a menu based environment, giving the user a rich and compelling experience. Main aim of this project is to enable customers efficient and reliable service from the Banking Industry, reduce customer interactivity to the banking staff and improve technical knowledge in the aspect of connecting J2ME and J2EE.
