Data Flow Diagram (DFD) Data Flow diagrams are a network representation of a system. Four entities that must be represented are:Data flows: movement of data in the systemData stores: data repositories for data that is not movingProcesses: transforms of incoming data flows to out going data flowsExternal entities: sources or destinations outside the specified system boundary

Database Software

SQL Server 2000 and MS Access were selected as the database software for this project out of the available software in the market.

Operating SystemWindows is selected as the operating system software since it works well or run well PHP and VB.

ImplementationImplementation Plan This plan describes how the developed system will be deployed. It contains an overview of the system,

The system to be implemented is an Online Hotel Management for Hotel Reveira. It is a web-base and a Visual Basic developed to run on a PHP/MySQL/Apache server and in Visual Basic. This is developed to assist the company in providing a better reservation service to their manages,and to the Customers also.

Major task required for the implementation of the system

Providing overall planning and co-ordination for the implementation.Providing appropriate training for personnelEnsuring that the user manual is available for the implementation effortEnsuring that all prerequisites are met.Performing data conversion before loading the data into the developed system.

Description of the implementation Firstly, the web server software (Apache) and database software (Mysql) are checked if they are present, if unavailable, they are installed. PHP and VB software is deployedThe System developed is then implemented.

Also instead of using above first three steps you can use the Xampp, which is consider a open source package that comes with the Apache server mysql database as a configured one. Import a Database backup.The system implemented is tested in the client PCs.

Implementation of Database

The database tables were successfully created using My SQL and MS Access.All the tables mentioned were designed and implemented appropriately with the appropriate fields and their data types.

Testing and Evaluation Component Testing

The program deals with database and some ActiveX controls and references some runtime libraries therefore it was essential to test if they are properly referenced or not.

installed Visual Basic 6.0 and Crystal Reports on the target test machine and run the system. All of them were successfully running without any problems

Integration Testing This test was mainly carried out to see the links between a forms and reports in the system. There are a number of different forms and reports linked together. So it was necessary to check the operability of the links found on the multiple document interface (MDI) form.

This testing mainly focused to check whether links between the forms and reports in the system work correctly. There are two kinds of test within this testing process.

Test links from the MDI form to other forms: when the user clicks on the menu, it will call respective form. For example: when the user clicks on Guest menu, it will open Guest window.
