Synopsis Format:

What is Synopsis?
A brief outline or general view, as of a subject or written work; an abstract or a summary.
What should be the contents of Synopsis?
The content should be as brief (15 – 20 pages in A4 sized paper) as is sufficient enough to explain the
objective and implementation of the project that the candidate is going to take up.

The write up must adhere to the guidelines and should include the following :
  • Title
This should be explicitly mentioned at the beginning of the Synopsis. Since the topic itself gives a peep into the project to
be taken up, candidate is advised to be prudent on naming the project. This being the overall impression on the future
work, the topic should corroborate the work.
  • Introduction, Objective & Scope
This should give a clear picture of the project. Objective should be clearly specified. What the project ends up to and in
what way this is going to help the end user has been mentioned.
  • Project Category
(RDBMS/OOPS/Networking/Multimedia/Artificial Intelligence/Expert Systems etc.).
  • Process Description including DFDs and ER diagram
The process of the whole software system proposed, to be developed, should be mentioned in brief. This may be
supported by DFD’s / Flowcharts to explain the flow of the information and ER diagram.
  • Testing Technologies and Security Mechanisms
  • Resources and Limitations
The requirement of the resources for designing and developing the proposed system must be given. The resources might
be in form of the Tools / Platform, hardware / software or the data from the industry. The limitations of the proposed
system in respect of a larger and comprehensive system must be given.
  • Future scope and further enhancement
  • Conclusion
The write-up must end with the concluding remarks-briefly describing innovations in the approach for implementing the
Project, main achievements and also any other important feature that makes the system stand out from the rest.
  • Bibliography
The references should be numbered serially in the order of their occurrence in the text and their numbers should be
indicated within square brackets for e.g. [3]. The section on references should list them in serial order in the following
format.
  • Guide’s Resume

Standard and Formatted Input / Output in C++

The C++ standard libraries provide an extensive set of input/output capabilities which we will see in subsequent chapters. This chapter will discuss very basic and most common I/O operations required for C++ programming. C++ I/O occurs in streams, which are sequences of bytes. If bytes flow from a device like a keyboard, a disk drive, or a network connection etc. to main memory, this is called   input operation   and if bytes flow from main memory to a device like a display screen, a printer, a disk drive, or a network connection, etc., this is called   output operation . Standard Input and Output in C++ is done through the use of  streams . Streams are generic places to send or receive data. In C++, I/O is done through classes and objects defined in the header file  <iostream> .  iostream  stands for standard input-output stream. This header file contains definitions to objects like  cin ,  cout , etc. /O Library Header Files There are...

locking

DBMS Locking Part I (DBMS only) TECHNICAL ARTICLES -> PERFORMANCE ARTICLES [  Back  ] [  Next  ] DBMS is often criticized for excessive locking – resulting in poor database performance when sharing data among multiple concurrent processes. Is this criticism justified, or is DBMS being unfairly blamed for application design and implementation shortfalls? To evaluate this question, we need to understand more about DBMS locking protocols. In this article, we examine how, why, what and when DBMS locks and unlocks database resources. Future articles will address how to minimize the impact of database locking. THE NEED FOR LOCKING In an ideal concurrent environment, many processes can simultaneously access data in a DBMS database, each having the appearance that they have exclusive access to the database. In practice, this environment is closely approximated by careful use of locking protocols. Locking is necessary in a concurrent environment to as...

DATA WAREHOUSE VERSUS DATA MART: THE GREAT DEBATE

DATA WAREHOUSE VERSUS DATA MART: THE GREAT DEBATE Customers exploring the field of business intelligence for the first time often lead with: What is the difference between a data warehouse and a data mart? The next question follows as predictably as night follows day: which one does my company need? Let me start by saying that the two terms are often confused. Indeed, some people in the industry use them virtually interchangeably, which is unfortunate, because they do reflect a valuable hierarchical difference. The Data Warehouse A "data warehouse" will typically contain the full range of business intelligence available to a company from all sources. That data consists of transaction-processing records, corporate and marketing data, and other business operations information; for example, a bank might include loans, credit card statements, and demand deposits data, along with basic customer information. This internal data is frequently combined with statistica...
