Abstract
Data storage and retrieval is a big challenge in most organizations, especially in most
government institutions and parastatals, but the cost to secure management information
systems remains a hurdle. However JURISS LAW SOFTWARE comes into rescue.
This document is written for the basic computer user (magistrates, chief justice, lawyers,
advocates and court clerks) and the system administrators of JURRIS LAW.
The study involved the design and implementation of an information system for the High
Court of Uganda that will provide easy, accurate and timely retrieval of all case records.
The problem was carefully analyzed and steps to solve it were drawn.
Various literary works were reviewed, in chapter two of this document. This was done to
get an overview of what has been done before concerning the problem. An overview of
an information system is given as well as various concepts patterning its implementation.
Although not all data storage systems are classified information you do not want data
stored on the papers to fed out or be torn due to the documents being torn .The issue of
data safety is also addressed.
The development methodology and tools have also been discussed in detail in chapter
three. This includes, knowledge acquisition and analysis, data collection techniques,
development tools and system validation.
Details of the new designed system, like system specification, user interfaces and data
flow for the new system are discussed in chapter four of this document. System testing,
data conversion and loading, approaches of implementation of the new system, user
training and manuals system evaluation details are also discussed in chapter five.
In chapter six, the limitations of the package, recommendations and areas of further
research are tackled.
We hope the reader will have a wider perspective of an information system and how it
can be used to securely improve record keeping in many institutions
