The purpose of assessment is to assess students on the following Learning Outcomes:
LO1: Apply best practices to design application components and business objects by
analyzing the business needs and adopting software engineering best practices.
LO2: Structure Web Tier & Application Components by identifying the most appropriate
structural pattern.
LO3: Implement data access/persistence mechanisms including implementing enterprisegrade transactions in traditional as well as non-SQL data environments.
LO4: Carry out research on emerging tools and use expert knowledge gained to choose the
right developmental strategy and tools to implement enterprise solutions without
compromising prudent design principles.
LO5: Synthesise complex enterprise business and operational needs to develop robust,
reliable and secure applications in a chosen implementation platform such as spring, jsf etc.

Objective(s)
This is a group assessment. In this assessment, you are required to develop a J2EE project with
MVC architecture using NetBeans environment and MySQL database component. The aim of
the project is to enhance student’s skills by applying their theoretical knowledge to develop
enterprise application using J2EE. The students are requested to use J2EE specifications and
techniques including session management, Custom tags, Enterprise Java Beans, Java Database
Connectivity (JDBC) and JPA (Java Persistence API) in the given project.
Project Description
The project is to develop a small-scale enterprise application system of your choice. The
application can have basic/similar functionalities as https://hauslondon.com/. You must

implement all the features and functionalities indicated in sub-sections below. You may explore
further additional features to score higher marks. This information is detailed enough for you to
complete the project. However, you will need to determine any unspecified details on your own.
The student needs to implement the following functionalities: –
1. User Authentication, login and logout
The component authenticates the user before the access to the online store. The interface
needs to be professional with appropriate logo, header and footers. The system needs to
have more than one type of user e.g. administrator and customers (it may include more).
It allows a new user to register into the system. A new user registration interface with
input fields may include email, full name, password, re-typed password and contact
number (optional). Required client and server-side scripts for field validation needs to be
provided. A login interface is must for the registered user to login to the system with the
email address/username and a password. The inputted email address and password needs
to be checked against the database. Otherwise, login failure message will be displayed.
The system needs to have a logout button that redirects to the login page and clears the
resource in use. As the user logs in, it displays the index page. This page can be used to
add, update or delete products. The system needs to have customized interface for each
user with their functionalities.
2. Product Maintenance
A series of pages needs to be created that allows a user to add, update or delete a product
that is available for a particular category in the system. The administrator/vendors can
enter new product categories and add list of products with their details within a category.
The category and product details may include name, description, image, cost, quantity
and any special features about the product. The information of the goods for the online
store is stored in MySQL database. An interface to update/delete the products should be
provided. The stock of the product based on the purchase/sale needs to be updated
automatically.
3. Search product and checkout screen

The registered customer may want to search for a product based on the category, or name
of the product. A search functionality that displays a detailed description with an
image(s) of the product needs to be provided. Based on the search, the customer may
want to buy the goods online. They can buy product(s) of different category and add them
in the shopping cart. Further, functionality may be added to the shopping cart: adding
products, listing products and empty cart. A checkout page must display the selected
product by the customer to purchase. The purchased product quantity needs to be updated
in the database accordingly.
Project Tasks & Deliverables
1. Project Proposal – Due in week 4
The project proposal needs to be submitted in week 4 along with the details of the group
members involved in it. The group members should not exceed the count of four. The
project proposal should contain a B2C (Business to Consumer) online store
company/organization name with details of the goods to be sold by it. The student must
provide clear indication of the organization and the online good(s) with their categories
(if any) they propose to work on in the proposal.
2. Database Design – Due in week 7
You will be designing an efficient and useful database design to store the information needed
for the proposed system.
A well-structure database:
1. List all the entities with their attributes including the datatype to store the information
for the given system. The nonduplicate entities gets converted into table with
attributes as fields within the given database.
2. Identify the attribute(s) that will serve as a primary/foreign key for each table.
Attributes chosen as primary key should be unique, unchanging and never defined as
NULL/empty.

3. Create relationships between the given tables. Each defined entity has a relationship
with every other one (one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many, mandatory etc.)
3. Project code with report – Due in week 12
The integrated code using MVC architecture including all the JSPs, servlets and Java
beans in the project needs to be submitted in week 12. The code is accepted after
demonstration to the lecturer. A report describing objective, organization with the
product details, database model and screenshots of the online system should be
documented.
The the overall project component is 40% weightage for the unit and individual
deliverables with the description, due week and weightage is defined in the table below.
The weightage in the table is relative to the project component only.
| Deliverables | Description | Due week |
| (Weightage) | ||
| Proposal document |
The proposal is a document to be uploaded on Moodle that contains the B2C company, products with project details of your choice to work on. The group details need to be included in the document and submitted in LMS. |
Week 4 (10%) |
| Database and UI design |
User interface of the project using HTML/CSS/JSP needs to be demonstrated and documented. Database model with the demonstration in MySQL to the lecturer. The database and UI design need to be submitted in LMS. |
Week 7 (30%) |
| Demonstration, Project Code with report |
The J2EE project including the required functionalities needs to be demonstrated to the lecturer. The project code with the report needs to be submitted in LMS. |
Week 12 (60%) |
Important Note: All the components that include database connectivity needs to be
implemented using JDBC and JPA. However, implementation of both the techniques in a
single module is not mandatory in the project. This means the student may choose to
implement JDBC/JPA in a module. But at least one instance of both is necessary.
