Implementation - Events Management Proposal

We have split up the tasks into pairs. I have worked with emily on the hardware and software aspect for the proposal including implementation too. This is what we have suggested:

Implementation

For the creation of the features such as drop down menus selecting the events, quantity of tickets, type of ticket (child or adult), date/time (Calendar), storing events and designing a template layout of styles (fonts) we can use the below languages:

Xhtml/CSS – creating the basic site
PHP – recording sessions and user input.
JavaScript - Data Validation
SQL – Storing event recordings.

The overall theme for the software should be consistent through out the website including the navigation setup.

Software:

For the above we could use the following:

Text pad, Notepad
Dreamweaver – creation of buttons and forms
Oracle (SQL)
Any other available compiler for java. For example Netbeans or JGrasp.
Adobe Photoshop/Elements for editing of images and video clips.

Hardware:

We will have one server to store all of the above. It should have the following specifications:

Xeon Dual Core Processor 3200
2GB DDR2 RAM – to allow multi-tasking. For example allowing simultaneous modifications to the server.
500 GB Hard drive space – to store all the software.
Keyboard/Mouse – for user input.
Price range £200.00

Client machines will actually implement the software will include:

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor 1.8Ghz
1 GB DDR RAM – to run the above programs
19inch Flat Screen Monitor – to view pictures/movies.
80 GB Hard drive space – to use for a temporary basis.
DVD RW optical drive
Network interface card (NIC) – connect to the server
256 Mb nVidia Geforce Graphics Card.
Keyboard/Mouse – for user input.
Price range around £450.00


The above specifications are only a guideline of what is required. In addition to the above depending on the amount of server and client machines, more networking components maybe required, for example routers and switches.


As mentioned above this is only a rough outline, it will depend on what we want to do later on.
