ABC ITS SOFTWARE TRACKING SYSTEM

1-> Lab Maintenance

2-> PC Maintenance

3-> Software Maintenance

4-> Search

5-> Export to HTML file

Option:

In the Lab Maintenance option, ITS staff can do the following tasks:

• Create a new lab profile

• Modify existing lab profile

• Assign an existing PC to the lab. This part is based on student creativity. You may list down all the PC from the system with running numbers. Then use a loop to prompt the user to enter the PC no and assign the PC to the lab accordingly. However each PC is only allowed to assign to one lab only.

• Remove existing PC from the lab

• Delete the lab profile

• Display lab details (show all the PC)

In the PC Maintenance option, ITS staff can do the following tasks:

• Create a new PC profile. All the PC details must be captured and the IP address must be in IPV4 format (e.g. 192.163.0.150). You may assign the relevant software to the PC during the creation of PC profile or do it in the edit option. However OS software is a compulsory software before the new PC profile was constructed. You may assign the PC to the particular lab or do it in the edit option.

• Edit existing PC details. You may add extra software to the PC or assign the PC to the particular lab. However if the software RAM requirement is equaled or above the PC specification, a warning message must be displayed for confirmation purposes before the software is added into the PC.

• Delete existing PC details. A confirmation dialog must be given before the PC was deleted.

In the Software Maintenance Option, ITS staff can do the following tasks:

• Able to add, modify, delete, and display existing software details.

• You may store the software expiration date in string or java.util.Date format. Make sure appropriate validation is given.

The program will store all the data into a set of files (representing a different set of relations) and reload them again for the next program execution. You shall load the software, PC, and lab instances in order based on the OOP dependencies in this program (Lab has PC and PC has software).

Each computer lab is given a name such as LAB A or LAB B. The lab consists of at most 50 PC. For the PC, ITS staff have to record the PC name (must be unique), IP address, computer type (desktop or laptop), year manufactured, ram requirement in GB format, and computer lab name. Apart from these, each PC must have all the installed software details. The software details comprise software name, software type (freeware, shareware or proprietary), minimum RAM requirement, and expiration date if under the proprietary category.
