System Study And Design

1. INTRODUCTION: 1.1 About the Organization:

PROJECT ON AIRLINE RESERVATION SYSTEM:

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude towards all the people who have in various ways, helped in thesuccessful completion of my project. I must convey my gratitude to Mr. Shahidh for giving me the constant source of Inspiration and help in preparing the project, personally correcting my work and providing encouragement throughout the project.I also thank all my faculty members for steering me through the tough as well asEasy phases of the project in a result oriented manner with concern attention.

1.2 About the Study / Project: The Airline reservation project will automate the manual andlegacy operation of a flight. The project will keep track offlight details, Reservation, Booking, Cancelling and Enquiry.

2.Problem definition and feasibility Analysis: 2.1 Introduction:

Any Process that is only in the planning stage and needs to beconverted into reality requires three important steps namely planning, analysis and design. All the above three ‘design’ isvery important. It is conversion of the ideas into reality by putting together all ideas block and achieving realism. Systemdesign is the process of planning a new business or one to replace or complement an existing system. It describes show a system will meet the requirement identified during the system analysis. It also describes the data.

2.2 Problem definition: The definition of our problem lies in manual system and a fully automated system.Manual system: The system is very time consuming and lazy. This system is more prone to errors and sometimes the approachto various problems is unstructured.

Technical system: With the advent of latest technology if we do not update our system then our business result in losses gradually with time. The technical systems contains the tools of latest trend i.e. computers printers, fax, Internet etc. The systems with this technology are very fast, accurate, user-friendly and reliable.

2.3 Existing System: The existing system is manual. It maintains huge records for various departments. The book keeping procedure is tedious and

3


is prompt to errors. Very careful handling is needed in manualsystems. Even a very minute mistake may lead to imbalanced results. Manual processes results in waste of time and energy.In the earlier system the inventory report is calculated manually. Whenever the accounting is to be performed. That information must be extracted from the file sand the calculation will have to check by the Concern person. The existing system leads to a lot of problems. The existing system consumed a lot of stationary cost. Daily transactions are maintained in journals. These journal entries are then posted on to the ledger accounts correspondingly.

2.4 Problem Recognition: This project is AIRLINE RESERVATION SYSTEM; the main aim of this project is gives the customer view of the airline. The customer needs in airline are, enquiry about booking, reservation process, vacating process, canceling the reservation. In this project the first module gives the administrator view for logging. The customer needs enquiry for first process. So the enquiry process is shown in the project that works more effectively than the manual process.The next process of customer is reservation. This reservation is for may today or future, for this the reservation form can work more efficient than the manual process. This form also checks the flight reservation dates.It is interactive to the customer; if the flights are not available it gives message and not allows reserving for thatdate. It is more efficient, more reliable, time saving and accurate. It is having all details of the database.

2.5 Propose System: This project integrates all Operation processes in the computer to synergies the important resources of Material and Money. The department people can gather the needed informationat their desk without any manual burdens. This project reducesmanual burdens and automates the functions of various departments. In manual process, to decide the Flight booking details, vacating details have to be verified each time. But with this project these process are automated and no manual checking is required. This project reports can be automatically generated. The processes of creating reports aremanually very tedious which are made very easy and automatically through this project. The reports produced helpsin making management decision easily. With this project, sinceall information about previous years is readily available, such reports can be produced within few seconds. Thus the project eliminates many difficulties saving a lot of time and energy, which could be used for some other constructive purpose towards the organization’s success.

2.6 Feasibility Analysis:

5


A feasibility Analysis or Feasibility study is an evaluation ofa proposal design to determine the difficulty in carrying out adesignated taskGenerally, a feasibility study is an evaluation or analysis of the potential impact of a proposed project.

2.7 Operational Feasibility: The new solution is feasible in all sense but operationally itis not. The new system demands the expulsion of at least 15 people from the company. It creates an environment of joblessness and fear among the employees. It can lead to an indefinite strike in the company also. So the management must take corrective actions prior in advance in order to start thefurther proceedings.

2.8 Technical Feasibility: The new system requires only 6 trained people to work with thesystem and in overall 10 people per office is sufficient. So we will identify 6 best people from existing system and train them.As our existing system is purely manual, so we need a one timeinvestment of Rs 4 Lacks for the purchase of 7 computers, 5 Ticket printers, a laser printer, AC and networking etc. It requires 20 Lacks PA as an operating cost.With the above details our system is technically feasible as after investing 24 lacks in a year, the company is still saving Rs 25 Lacks PA.

2.9 Economical Feasibility: With the manual system the operating cost of the system is about 60 Lacks P.A... This cost comprises salary of 25 people,stationary, building rent, electricity, water, telephone etc. But with the new system this reoccurring cost comes out to be

6


about 20 lacks P.A. Hence the new system is economically feasible.

Q4. Ticks mark the reports to be incorporated? List of all passengers List of all flights List of passenger (date wise) List of passenger (flight wise) Any other

After getting solution my queries I started studying database structure used in the existing system. In this connection I had come to know about various master files as:

In passenger list: Passenger name, Address, tel-no, d_o_b, profession father name.

Fleet info: No aircraft, club_pre_capacity, economic capacity,engine type, cruisespeed, air length.

Flight info : f_name, f_code, c_code, t_exeseat no, t_economic seat no.Concession: concession name, concession code, class, discount,v_o_t, baggage allowance, fare.Move of payment : Passenger code, Date of paid, Current date, cash, Debit, cheque, credit.

Fare : route, destination place, source place, Departure time, Arrival time, Flight code, class, Fare.Reservation: Ticket report, PNR, flight code, destination place, source place, departure time arrival time, Class, number of passenger, Age, sex, Fare, seat.

Enquiry : Ticket no, seat number, pnr.

Cancellation: Pnr, ticket no, Days left, Basic amount, Cancel amount.

Various categories of flight code are display here CD455, IC548, IC7896, I C567, CD445Flight schedule - gau to del 12.33 pm to2.33 pmIn this process further I had visited the air port again in order to INTER VIEW people to know more about the system. The main purpose was to analyses the method of calculating daily in come reservation cost generation methods, and few concern things. Duty schedule.

system is stored.· First make all form.· Make Main menu. Join every form with Main menu.· Main menu open. It shows all forms heading.· Now choose what form will be open then click.· If Reservation form is open then it show new pnr and ticket

number.· After put various values we click save bottom.· It automatically goes to report.

6 TESTING: 6.1 INTRODUCTION:Testing is more than just debugging. The purpose of testing can be quality assurance, verification and validation, or reliability estimation. Testing can be used as a generic metric as well. Correctness testing and reliability testing are two major areas of testing. In these phases I had tried to check all the modules separately for there proper formatting.

6.2 TEST PLAN:The testing plan developed in "Charting a Course" contains seven sections that can be customized according to the command/schoolhouse. These sections are

Test Schedule

Grades Purpose Progress Testing Procedures Review, Remediation, and Retesting Analysis, Modification, and Compromise

19


6.3 UNIT TESTING:After this step I had performed a unit test to check the functionality of the whole system.Further I had come to know to add certain validation in project as given bellow:

1) Table name - Customer information.Field name – Customer name.Data type -Text.

When we enter number in the form then it show wrong .Because it is not number typeIt is a character. So it shows wrong value.

2) Table name _Customer informationField name - Departure time, Arrival time.Data type - Date/Time.When we enter 12.33 then it automatically shows 12.33pm.When we enter 11.33 then it automatically shows 11.33am.

3) Table name –Flight informationField name- Flight-code.Data type- number.When we put any other value or character then it ask validity check.

6.4 INTEGRATION TESTING: Integration testing is a logical extension of unit testing. In its simplest form, two units that have already been tested are combined into a component and the interface between them is tested. A component, in this sense, refers to an integrated aggregate of more than one unit. In a realistic scenario, many units are combined into components,which are in turn aggregated into even larger parts of the program. The idea is to test combinations of pieces and eventually expand the process to test your modules with those of other groups. Eventually all the modules making up a process are tested together. Beyond that, if the program is composed of more than one process, they should be tested in pairs rather than all at once.

20


Integration testing identifies problems that occur when units are combined. By using a test plan that requires you to test each unit and ensure the viability of each before combining units, you know that any errors discovered when combining units are likely related to the interface between units. This method reduces the number of possibilities to a far simpler level of analysis.

7 FUTURE ENHANCEMENT: The project is developed considering only reservation, cancelling, and booking department. But it can be extended for hardware, software and machine also. Since our objectiveof the project is successfully completed. This is system provides efficiency in many ways. All the features that is required for the AIRLINE RESERVATION SYSTEM has been finished successfully. All the complications concerned with this project are successfully solved. Every application has it s own merits and demerits. The project has covered almostall the requirements. Further requirements and improvements can easily be done since the coding is mainly structured or modular in nature. Changing the existing modules or adding new module can append improvements. This project provides detailed information about all the Booking department, passenger list, and flight information, move of payment, enquiry, cancellation, and Reporting details for all reservations.

8 CONCLUSION: This project work is an attempt to develop a system that canbe used for computerization of activities in the Airline reservation system. Since these activities are tedious process requiring lot of effort, more care has been taken for the system development. There equipments a suitable database is created maximum effort were taken to avoid duplication in data entry and data storage. Various reports can be generated by this system. The major advantage of the system is fast and accurate information retrieval, minimization of clerical work, easy and efficient data storage and report generation.
