    (School of Computing and Information Technology, 2012-07) Buga, Hamid Oscar; Ahabwe, Benerd
    This project comprises of five chapters that is, chapter one which includes a number of sub topics like background, problem statement and also objectives are discussed within this chapter, the justification of the study to mention but a few. Chapter two covers literature review that describes the review of literature relating to some writers and scholars plus other researchers and designers. Chapter three describes the methodology including both the physical and logical techniques used and even the tools applied during the design of the final report. The design was basically related to what other writers and designers say about what and so on and SO forth. Chapter four includes system development and testing which illustrates the system development life cycle up to the end, lastly chapter five describes system evaluation including the design lay outs of the system the problems encountered during the development phase and lastly the recommendations made. It is helpful to the user as well since it will produce the information required for the project design. After passing through this project, you will be able to understand the system to be designed…

    Design and implementation of a modular students’ results management system for a senior secondary school: A case study of Old Kampala Senior Secondary School
    (School of Computing and Information Technology, 2012-08) Mugisha, Samuel
    At the turn of this century, the government encouraged the use of computers and IT teaching in schools. It was prudent for Old Kampala SSS to embrace this innovation or else it lags behind. It was therefore due to this urgency to keep up with the pace that led to the development of a student results management system at Old Kampala SSS. Traditional methods of recording, compiling and keeping student results were the norm for example the use of papers to record and store exam results in file cabinets, the manual compiling of students results was very slow, prone to errors and very tiresome which lead to late release of student results. With the above background, a study had to carried out, whose main objective was to design and implement a modular student’s results management system that would enable the staff of Old Kampala SSS to record, compile, process and store student results so as to increase efficiency and effectiveness. System requirements were obtained using several techniques like sampling technique which was used to identify sample population from whom data was got. The sample population was then subjected to the data collection tools using Questionnaires. A Use case diagram, Class Diagram, Data Flow Diagram (DFD), and Flow Chart were used to analyze and design the system. The system was implemented using VB used to design the front-end user interfaces (forms), while MS Access was used for the database server.

    Design and implementation of a securely automated centralized data warehouse for government institutions: A case study of postal and telecommunication services in Southern Sudan.
    (School of Computing and Information Technology, 2011-04) Chol, John Deng; Mugweru, Kenedy Njogu
    The role of IT in achieving the organization’s strategic development goals has been an area of constant debate. This study describes the experiences of a Postal and Telecom Company, in attempt to achieve strategic development goals through the adoption of IT. The implementation stage of the project involved setting a flexible programme and timescale from the start. Juba Postal and Telecom Company adopted a bottom up approach whereby potential users were consulted and involved in the process. Also the support of top management staff was crucial for the successful transition to the new system. Although there was no single ready-made solution that could fit the organizations requirements, they were able to identify appropriate construction industry software packages and integrate them through development of database system…

    Design and implementation of an online order processing system: A case of study of Hima cement company
    (School of Computing and Information Technology, 2011-05) Nabateregga, Josephine; Nabwire, Lillian
    The internet has turned the world into a global village. Meaning that business transactions can be carried out from anywhere and at any time provided that one is connected to the internet. However, in most third world countries Uganda inclusive, people are not fully exploiting the benefits of IT businesses still face problems of low customer-base limited to the areas where those businesses are located just because they have not exploited IT or they are just ridged to traditional ways of carrying out business. Hima cement factory happens to be one of those businesses that still suffer from the problem of IT-divide moreover falling on the lower side. It almost only carries out business with those that can physically access their different offices or the plant itself. And this has hindered its economic growth as some customers are geographically eliminated for fear to incur extra costs in traveling to the few districts where hima has offices. The high cost of operation that is incurred by customers, and Hima as accompany was key to the undertaking of this project. The project study focused on only the order making process which is a major business process. However, there is need of expanding on this so as to integrate it with other process like online payments among others. There is need for Hima management to sensitive its customers on the introduction this new service. User training is highly recommended to all the people on how to use the system. The system was developed using Php, mysql and dream weaver. Php provided a local host, sql was used to create a database, and dream weaver for creating web pages
