About The Software
1. Introduction:
The following subsections of the SRS document provide an overview of the
entire SRS.
i) Purpose: The purpose of the project is to provide online facility to Institutes to
conduct online exams and to Students to give online exams. Institutes can enter and
edit the questions along with the students list. Also they can view the result. Students
can login and give their respective exams and view their score then and there. Others
can view sample papers to get look and feel of the online examination system.

In turn student can login with their id, name and instituteid to give the exams
and can view their result then and there. Institutes can also view the result of their
students.
Benefits: This website reduces the manual work, maintaining accuracy, increasing
efficiency and saving time. Also institutes need not go to develop a new software
each time, instead they just register and conduct a test. For students, it saves time of
going to far away centers and also they can view their result then and there.
iii) Abbreviations:
JSP stands for Java Server Pages
HTTP stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol
iv) References:
IEEE Recommended Practice for Software Requirements Specification-
IEEE Std 830-1993.
v) Overview: The rest of this SRS document describes the various system
requirements, interfaces, features and functionalities in detail.

DATA FLOW DIAGRAM
A DFD also known as ‘bubble chart’, has the purpose of clarifying system
requirements and identifying major transformations. It shows the flow of data
through a system. It is a graphical tool because it presents a picture. The DFD
may be partitioned into levels that represent increasing information flow and
functional detail. Four simple notations are used to complete a DFD. These
notations are given below:-
DATA FLOW:- The data flow is used to describe the movement of
information from one part of the system to another part. Flows represent data
