4 Read the following case study thoroughly and answer the following questions:

ABC is an educational institute which is reputed for its management courses. It has

3 branches in different places and is planning to launch 2 more branches in some

other places. The institute used to maintain the student details in the form of a hard

copy file. One day, a fire broke out in the record section and all such records were

destroyed. Next day the management decided to maintain the student details in a

computer so as to prevent the damage due to such disasters. One of the management

members suggested that XYZ Company is capable of developing a kind of

application for maintaining records using java. The member further told other

members that in his friend’s organisation the same java application developed by the

sXYZ company was working very effectively and it also offered enough security

parameters. Immediately the management appointed an employee who had good

knowledge of java language to oversee the implementation of the required

application. That employee prepared an outline of the company’s requirements and

submitted it to the XYZ Company. The requirements of institute were: For

institute’s employees—student details, course details, materials, and access rights.

For students it wasCourse material, feedback on assignments, course details and

faculty details.

XYZ company’s web designers developed a prototype of an application based on the

requirements of the ABC institute. Now the programmers of XYZ company detailed

the process of application development based on the specified requirements. They

decided that for display purpose they can use JSP (Java Sever Pages) and to retrieve

the details of a particular student, they would create JDBC connection to the all

branches. The student details can be stored in a database table (server side) by using

MySql.

They also decided to use servlets for internal process. That is, sending of request and

obtaining response from the server. After developing the application, they submitted

it to ABC institute for testing purpose. During the testing process, it was found that

there is no proper security mechanism in the application. That is, the application

permitted ‘Login’ by every member. So ABC company asked XYZ company to install

security mechanism in the application such that it gives separate access to the

employees and students. XYZ company modified the application by giving only

limited and absolutely necessary access rights to the concerned users. Also a new

security parameter added to the application, prevented access by a user for 24 hours

if he/she entered incorrect ‘Login’ details for three consecutive times.

a) Give reasons as to why ABC institute decided to choose XYZ Company for the

development of Java application.

b) Discuss the reason for using JSP in java application.

b. Reason for using JSP 5 10

4 A business products distributor was manually processing over 300,000 customer orders each

year. Heavy order flow prior to shipping cut-off timeframes and a highly variable daily

volume created staffing challenges and inconsistent order turnaround times.

Despite an effort to process customer orders via EDI, the company continued to receive over

20,000 orders per month via fax and email requiring manual data entry. Customer Service

Associates in three different centres manually entered the orders into the order management

system with the added pressure of meeting a shipping deadline. As any manual single-pass

data entry process there were many errors, especially during peak processing cycles.

Due to a complex product catalogue, variety of order types received from customers, and the

large customer base, finding and training data entry specialists was a challenge. Fluctuating

daily order volumes made maintaining appropriate staffing levels very difficult. During peak

demand periods order processing lags would greatly decrease customer satisfaction levels.

To solve all these problems the company implemented an outsourced automatic data entry

solution with sophisticated “freeform” data extraction for their fax and email orders. The

solution was able to recognise and capture data from any customer order format with 99.5%

accuracy. Order input no longer requires the participation of the company’s order entry

staff, which has reduced labour costs. The solution also receives fax and email orders on

behalf of the company directly from customers and converts the hardcopy order to an EDI

electronic purchase order for the order management systems.

The solution includes a customised web-based portal to support exception processing and a

secure web tool for archiving and storing images of all of the original order documents. The

solution is completely accessible on demand from any of the company’s workstations. The

solution was fully operational within 90 days and required zero capital investments in

hardware, software or labour on the part of the company.

a. What are the challenges that the company faced before the installation of the Data Entry

solution?
