Final Year Project: Design, Develop and Implement An E-Commerce Solution (2005)

E-Commerce Solution Final Year Project – This project report is a report that has been compiled following the completion of the authors’ final year project in partial fulfilment of the Degree of BSc (Hons) Database Computing. The report outlines the domain of a current student union and outlines the potential the Internet has to offer especially in the field of E-Commerce.

The report details the rationale behind the methods adopted in the process of the project, analysing alternative feasible options and justifying selections. It analyses relevant tools, and techniques employed in the actual implementation and identifies the process of design through implementation, to user testing of the proposed solution.

Finally the report concludes with a critical evaluation highlighting deviations in what had initially been proposed, limitations of the system and an overview of each section of this report, from start to finish.
