I have to do this for my final year of computer science....before the end of today and unfortunately im a very smart boy and working this out on a hangover so would appreciate some opinions.
I have previously narrowed it down to a few available choices but not sure which to choose
2.2 Creation of an Online Store for an Import/Export Company
Project Description
An online store is required to allow the customer to purchase items online, make payments, and track their order. All the information should be entered and managed through a database that can be manipulated by the agent.
Functions of the website would include:
- database of products, and their details
- interactive product selector, in order to help the customer select the item that best suits their needs
- ability to enter information taken over the telephone by the agent, as well as allowing the customer to enter the details themselves
- secure online payments to be filled in by the customer, or the agent, over the telephone
- details of trades people (plumbers/electricians) to make their services available for fitting and maintenance of the items sold online
- interactive installation guide, if the customer decides to install the item themselves
- stock control and cost management facility
- interactive troubleshooting process for the customer
Desirable Interests Internet solutions.
Resources Required PC/Mac with Apache/PHP/MySQL
Or
Re-doing the website for the university radio station.
A more detailed list of what we would hope for can be found below:
1) A retention of the Queen’s Radio colours already on the site (i.e. dark and light blue). We would however be open to introducing something extra, something to make it a little less bland.
2) Picture Gallery
3) Message box to email our studio – email address is [email protected]
4) Queen’s Radio top tunes board – perhaps we could have a mini player that could give samples of music from unsigned bands. Similar to what functions on myspace.
5) Interactive schedule – The best example of this is on the http://urn1350.net/ website.
6) Podcasts – The ability for us to be able to upload and stream podcasts or subscribe to an iTunes podcast which we would set up.
7) Ability to embed and upload videos.
8) An RSS feed for gigs and events happening throughout Belfast
9) Links to social networking sites (eg Facebook and twitter)
10) Link to our forum – although our forum functions we would be welcome to suggestions for alternatives or improvements.
11) A live stream to listen to our output (already in place but could be altered.)
Any other suggestions are welcome.
My first issue is that I am on for a first currently, and wish to keep things that way. Is there really enough work in either of these for a final project? What would you recommend I go for and why? I have a fair bit of web-design background but its very basic i.e. working with a CMS and editting HTML/CSS/PHP to suit my needs
