Project Introduction: Online Task Management System

$3$ HPXS$302-1-$Jul$-$Dec$2024-$SA$1-$OD$-$V$3-09072024$

Project Question: Develop an Online Task Management System that allows users to

create, assign, and track tasks within a team or organisation. The system should include

features for user authentication, task creation, assignment, progress tracking and basic

task management functionalities.

Requirements for the Online Task Management System Project

$1.$ Analysis Phase

$$ Data Flow Diagrams $($DFDs$)$: Create DFDs to illustrate the flow of information

within the system.

$$ Use Case Models: Develop use case models to identify and represent the

interactions between users and the system.

$$ Communication Diagrams: Design communication diagrams to show how

system components interact with each other.

$$ Activity Diagrams: Produce activity diagrams to visualise the sequence of

activities and workflows.

$2.$ System Design

$$ Three Levels of Design:

$1.$ High$-$Level Design $($HLD$)$: Outline the system architecture and major

components.

$2.$ Mid$-$Level Design $($MLD$)$: Detail the subsystems and their interactions.

$3.$ Low$-$Level Design $($LLD$)$: Provide in$-$depth specifications for each module

and component.

$$ User Interface Development:

$$ Design intuitive and responsive UI using HTML and CSS$.$

$$ Ensure UI components are user$-$friendly and accessible.

$$ Database Structuring:

$$ Design database schema using MySQL$.$

$$ Define tables, relationships, and indexes to optimise data storage and

retrieval.

$3.$ Practical Implementation

$4$ HPXS$302-1-$Jul$-$Dec$2024-$SA$1-$OD$-$V$3-09072024$

$$ Data Storage with MySQL:

$$ Implement database creation scripts.

$$ Use MySQL for storing user data, tasks, and other related information.

$$ HTML Forms:

$$ Create forms for user inputs such as task creation, editing and deletion.

$$ Ensure forms are properly validated and sanitized.

$$ Form Handling with PHP:

$$ Write PHP scripts to handle form submissions securely$.$

$$ Implement backend logic for CRUD operations $($Create$,$ Read, Update,

Delete$).$

$$ Enhancing User Experience with JavaScript:

$$ Use JavaScript for dynamic content updates and improved user interaction.

$$ Implement client$-$side validation and interactive features $($e$.$g$.,$ drag$-$anddrop task management$).$

$4.$ Security Measures

$$ User Authentication:

$$ Implement secure login and registration mechanisms.

$$ Use hashing and salting for password storage.

$$ Authorisation Controls:

$$ Define user roles and permissions.

$$ Ensure access control to sensitive functionalities and data.

$5.$ Validation and Testing

$$ Scenario$-$Based Practical Approach:

$$ Validate system functionality through real$-$world scenarios and use cases.

$$ Perform comprehensive testing to identify and fix bugs.

$$ Coding:

$$ Adhere to coding standards and best practices while implementing the

system using Java, PHP$,$ JavaScript, HTML$,$ CSS$,$ and MySQL$.$

$5$ HPXS$302-1-$Jul$-$Dec$2024-$SA$1-$OD$-$V$3-09072024$

$$ Documentation:

$$ Document all phases of the project comprehensively.

$$ Include visual representations like diagrams, screen captures, and

flowcharts.

$$ Provide detailed user and developer documentation for future reference and

maintenance.
