SYSTEM ANALYSIS
EXISTING SYSTEM:
System Analysis is a detailed study of the various operations performed by a
system and their relationships within and outside of the system. Here the key question is-
what all problems exist in the present system? What must be done to solve the problem?
Analysis begins when a user or manager begins a study of the program using existing
system.
During analysis, data collected on the various files, decision points and
transactions handled by the present system. The commonly used tools in the system are
Data Flow Diagram, interviews, etc. Training, experience and common sense are required
for collection of relevant information needed to develop the system. The success of the
system depends largely on how clearly the problem is defined, thoroughly investigated
and properly carried out through the choice of solution. A good analysis model should
provide not only the mechanisms of problem understanding but also the frame work of
the solution. Thus it should be studied thoroughly by collecting data about the system.
Then the proposed system should be analyzed thoroughly in accordance with the needs.
System analysis can be categorized into four parts.
System planning and initial investigation
Information Gathering
Applying analysis tools for structured analysis
Feasibility study
Cost/ Benefit analysis.
In the current system we need to keep a number of records related to the customer
and want to enter the details of the customer manually. In this system only the ticketing
manager views the details of the customer and they can edit the date of flight of the
customer or can delete the flight. This is time consuming and has much cost.

PROPOSED SYSTEM
In our proposed system we have the provision for adding the details of the customers by
ticketing manager with the help of predefined format and drop-down lists. So the
overhead of the ticketing manager is become less. Another advantage of the system is
that it is very easy to edit the details of the customers and delete a ticket entry when it
found unnecessary.
Our proposed system has several advantages
All the manual difficulties in managing the customer details in a airline reservation
database have been rectified by implementing computerization.

PROJECT PLANNING
FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
Whatever we think need not be feasible .It is wise to think about the feasibility of any
problem we undertake. Feasibility is the study of impact, which happens in the
organization by the development of a system. The impact can be either positive or
negative. When the positives nominate the negatives, then the system is considered
feasible. Here the feasibility study can be performed in two ways such as technical
feasibility and Economical Feasibility.
Technical Feasibility
We can strongly says that it is technically feasible, since there will not be much
difficulty in getting required resources for the development and maintaining the system as
well. All the resources needed for the development of the software as well as the
maintenance of the same is available in the organization here we are utilizing the
resources which are available already.
Economical Feasibility:
Development of this application is highly economically feasible .The organization needed
not spend much money for the development of the system already available. The only
thing is to be done is making an environment for the development with an effective
supervision. If we are doing so, we can attain the maximum usability of the
corresponding resources .Even after the development, the organization will not be in
condition to invest more in the organization .Therefore, the system is economically
feasible.

SYSTEM DESIGN
JAVA
The entire component has been developed using Java technology. Java has been chosen
as the platform because of its feature rich nature. The Java Platform provides robust end-
to-end solutions for networked applications as well as a trusted standard for embedded
applications. So Java was a natural choice for development process.
Characteristics of Java
Object Oriented:
Java is object oriented to the truest sense of the word. Everything in Java is represented
as objects. Variables and methods both are encapsulated in objects. Java is the purest
object-oriented language.
Robust:
Java is a very robust language owing to the following features:
Excellent exception handling facilities.
Memory management relief for the user. User does not have to worry about allocation
and de-allocation of memory.
Strict compile-time and runtime checks for data types.
Multithreaded:
10 | P a g e
Programs can do many things simultaneously using different threads.
Provides a solution for multi-process synchronization.
Allows the creation of networked and interactive programs.
Distributed:
Open access to remote objects by the use of RMI(Remote Method Invocation).
Brings a level of abstraction to client/server programming.
Secure:
Security is achieved by confining a java program to the java execution
environment and not allowing access to other parts of the user computer.
Absence of pointers provides memory related security as encroachment of
memory is avoided Proper measures for prevention of viral infection and
malicious intent.
High Performance:
Just-In-Time (JIT) compilers are used to convert byte-code into native machine code
resulting in very high performance. These JIT compilers can be used on a real time, piece
by piece demand basis to perform on-the-fly compilation of byte-code into native-code.

JAVA SWINGS
"Swing" refers to the new library of GUI controls (buttons, sliders, checkboxes, etc.) that
replaces the somewhat weak and inflexible AWT controls.
The Swing classes eliminate Java's biggest weakness: its relatively primitive user
interface toolkit. Java Swing helps you to take full advantage of the Swing classes,
providing detailed descriptions of every class and interface in the key Swing packages. It
shows you how to use all of the new components, allowing you to build state-of-the-art
user interfaces and giving you the context you need to understand what you're doing. It's
more than documentation; Java Swing helps you develop code quickly and effectively.
1. Main New Features
Lightweight. Not built on native window-system windows.
Much bigger set of built-in controls: Trees, image buttons, tabbed panes, sliders,
toolbars, color choosers, tables, text areas to display HTML or RTF, etc.
Much more customizable. Can change border, text alignment, or add image to almost
any control. Can customize how minor features are drawn. Can separate internal
representation from visual appearance.
"Pluggable" look and feel. Can change look and feel at runtime, or design own look and
feel.
Many miscellaneous new features. Double-buffering built in, tool tips, dock able tool
bars, keyboard accelerators, custom cursors, etc.
2. Components are named JXxx.
E.g. JFrame, JPanel, JApplet, JDialog, JButton, etc.
J Component
The J Component class is the root of the Visual component class hierarchy in JFC. All
Swing components are implemented as subclass of J components class, which inherits
from the Container class. Swing component inherit the following functionality from J
Component
12 | P a g e
a). Borders- Using the setBorder() method, you can specify the border that a component
displays around its edges. You can specify that component have extra space around its
edges using an EmptyBorder instance.
b). Double Buffering- It can improve the appearance of frequently changing components.
Now you do not have to write the double buffering code because Swing provides it for
you. By default Swing components are double buffered.
c). Tool Tips- By specifying a string with the setToolTipNext() method, you can provide
help to users of a components. When the cursor pauses over the components, the
specified string is displayed in small window near the component.
d). Look and Feel- Subject to the security restriction, you can choose the look and feel
used by all Swing components by invoking the UIManager.setLookAndFeel() method.
4. Instead of adding components directly to frames or applets, we can use the content
pane.
Add to content pane via getContentPane().add
Replace content pane via setContentPane
5. Model-View-Controller architecture let us change the internal data representation for
lists, trees, tables, etc.
13 | P a g e
JDBC
The JDBC is a set of the database access classes. The very term JDBC stands for “Java
Database Connectivity”. It was developed by Java Soft. JDBC technology is an API
(Application Program Interface) that allows virtual access to any tabular data source from
the Java programming language by means of some connecting software called Drivers. It
provides cross-DBMS connectivity to a wide range of SQL databases. JDBC defines a set
of interfaces to enable developers to access data independently of the actual database
product used to store the data. JDBC allow Java applets, Servlets, and application to
access data in famous database management systems.
It also provides access to other tabular data sources, such as spreadsheets or flat files.
The JDBC API allows developers to take advantage of the Java platform's "Write Once,
Run Anywhere" capabilities for industrial strength, cross-platform applications that
require access to enterprise data. With a JDBC technology-enabled driver, a developer
can easily connect all corporate data even in a heterogeneous environment. The JDBC
API is the industry standard for database-independent connectivity between the Java
programming language and a wide range of databases. The JDBC API makes it possible
to do three things:
Establish a connection with a database or access any tabular data source
Send SQL statements
Process the results
Steps in using JDBC
1) Create a Connection type of object (A) denoting a connection to the database.
2) Create a Statement type of object (B) using the A.
3) Use B to execute either update the database or send a query request.
4) The result of the query operation in step 3 is a Result Set type of object(C)
5) C is actually a small table (D) consisting of the result of the query.
6) D can be handled according to the user needs
7) Close C,B and A
14 | P a g e
JDBC ARCHITECTURE
15 | P a g e
Type1:JDBC-ODBC Bridge
The type 1 driver, JDBC-ODBC Bridge, translates all JDBC calls into ODBC (Open
Database Connectivity) calls and sends them to the ODBC driver. As such, the ODBC
driver, as well as, the client database code, must be present on the client machine.
JAVA APPLICATION
JDBC/ODBC BRIDGE
ODBC DATABASE
DRIVER
16 | P a g e
Pros: The JDBC-ODBC Bridge allows access to almost any database, since the database's
ODBC drivers are already available. Type 1 drivers may be useful for those companies
that have an ODBC driver already installed on client machines.
Cons: The performance is degraded since the JDBC call goes through the bridge to the
ODBC driver, then to the native database connectivity interface. The result comes back
through the reverse process. Considering the performance issue, type 1 drivers may not
be suitable for large-scale applications.
The ODBC driver and native connectivity interface must already be installed on the client
machine. Thus any advantage of using Java applets in an intranet environment is lost,
since the deployment problems of traditional applications remain. We have used JDBC-
ODBC Bridge Type Drivers.

INPUT DESIGN
Input design is the process of converting user-oriented input to a computer based
format. Input design is a part of overall system design, which requires very careful
attention .Often the collection of input data is the most expensive part of the system. The
main objectives of the input design are …
1. Produce cost effective method of input
2. Achieve highest possible level of accuracy
3. Ensure that the input is acceptable to and understood by the staff.
Input Data
The goal of designing input data is to make entry easy, logical and free from
errors as possible. The entering data entry operators need to know the allocated space for
each field; field sequence and which must match with that in the source document. The
format in which the data fields are entered should be given in the input form .Here data
entry is offline; it makes use of processor that accepts commands and data from the
operator through a key board. The input required is analyzed by the processor. It is then
accepted or rejected. Input stages include the following processes
Data Recording
Data Transcription
Data Conversion
Data Verification
Data Control
Data Transmission
Data Correction
18 | P a g e
One of the aims of the system analyst must be to select data capture method and
devices, which reduce the number of stages so as to reduce both the changes of errors and
the cost .Input types, can be characterized as.
External
Internal
Operational
Computerized
Interactive
Input files can exist in document form before being input to the computer. Input
design is rather complex since it involves procedures for capturing data as well as
inputting it to the computer.
19 | P a g e
OUTPUT DESIGN
Outputs from computer systems are required primarily to communicate the results
of processing to users. They are also used to provide a permanent copy of these result for
latter consultation .Computer output is the most important and direct source of
information to the users. Designing computer output should proceed in an organized well
throughout the manner. The right output must be available for the people who find the
system easy o use. The outputs have been defined during the logical design stage. If not,
they should defined at the beginning of the output designing terms of types of output
connect, format, response etc,
Various types of outputs are
External outputs
Internal outputs
Operational outputs
Interactive outputs
Turn around outputs
All screens are informative and interactive in such a way that the user can full fill
his requirements through asking queries.

SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
Implementation is the stage in the project where the theoretical design is turned into a
working system. The implementation phase constructs, installs and operates the new
system. The most crucial stage in achieving a new successful system is that it will work
efficiently and effectively.
There are several activities involved while implementing a new project. They are
End user training
End user Education
Training on the application software
System Design
Parallel Run and To New System
Post implementation Review
