Software Requirements Specification

1.0 Introduction:

Online National Polling Software version 1.0 is designed to
Improve current voting status and to facilitate comfortable and easy polling.

1.1 Purpose:

We live in a democracy and voting is one of our fundamental duties as responsible
citizens of the country, but nowhere around the country a 100% people come to vote
during the elections in their territory. There have been many reasons for that some
of them are:
In the rural areas the influential people keep their men at the polling booths to
threaten the common man to vote for them.
There are many portions of the country like the North East where there is locally
sponsored terrorism, at such places the security conditions are also not very bright,
so naturally people feel afraid to come out of their houses and go to vote.
Net savvy new generation want hassle free voting system. Also the people in
metros want a system through which they can vote for their territory without
travelling. Keeping in mind these situations and to improve the state of democracy in
the country Online Polling System can be thought as a solution, in conjunction with
the ongoing current manual voting system.
1.2 Scope: The Scope of the Online National Polling includes:

i. Online registration for the voter id card which will be verified by the field officers
(address and identity validation) and after receiving the field officer's report the
registration will be validated and a voter id will be issued (a photograph will have to
be uploaded).
ii. Those already having a voter id card can register for the online voting system,
they will use their voter id as their user name and a separate password will be used
for secure authentication.

iii. The election commission will be able to use the site to let the candidates register
for their nomination on the site and their officers will validate it. Candidates can run
their election campaign through forums and chat-room.
iv. A detailed profile of all the candidates constituency wise will be maintained so
that voters can always know about the candidates of their area.
v. Once registered when ever polling is done in any area that areas' people will be
able to vote for their favourite candidates.
vi Duplicate voting (online & offline) is not happening.
vii. The system would show the current statistics as well on the web site about how
many votes which candidates have got.
viii. Later when the voting ends the administrator can add the manual polling results
to the database to calculate the final results which will immediately be flashed on the
site.
ix. Candidates can to modify selected portions of their profile after registration for
nomination like the promises they make about the things to do after winning the
election, their previous works, their experiences and a comprehensive about me.

1.6 Overview: The SRS will include two sections, namely:

-I- Overall Description: This section will describe major components of the system,
interconnections, and external interfaces.

-I- Specific Requirements: This section will describe the functions of actors, their
roles in the system and the constraints faced by the system.

Meki


2.0) Overall Description:
The software requires certain tables to be presented already as a prerequisite.
Tables like records contain information about rooms , general manager , agents
, supplier and employees working in respective hotels.

2.1) Product Perspective:

The web pages (HTML/JSP) are present to provide the user interface
on client side. Communication between client and server is provided
through HTTP/HTTPS protocols.

Admin is provided with a client so that he can create and manage action in
the system

Client software is provided with the privileges and restrictions to the
actors.

The server communicates to external databases via internet.

2.4) Product Functions:
Field Officers will be able to view the forms in the standard
format, for example form for voter ID registration will look same
as manual form (i.e form6) looks like.
Forms for all the users will be filled automatically from the
database and we will try to ask for minimum information for filling
those standard forms. For eg: for filling candidate form(i.e form
2A) voter will have to enter just his voter id and other extra
information like criminal records and general information will be
filled automatically from database by referencing vid.
Possible validations will be applied at the time of form submission
only to minimize headache for field officers and election
commissioner.
It will automatically calculate number of votes in each
constituency and display results and graph for each candidate
accordingly.
We will eliminate those online votes whose entry is done
manually (i.e if a voter has voted manually). We will ask field
officer to enter manual votes and voter ids from which the voting
has being done manually and eliminate online vote of duplicate
entries.
To make sure that registration is done by right person we will ask
for voter ids of 2 relatives and their part number and serial
number which they specified in their registration form(2A).
When a voter selects the type of election , all the constituencies of
that election appear before him and on selecting a particular

Meki


constituency , the list of all candidates standing from that
constituency appears.
Whenever the Field Officer accepts or reject a voter id request ,
an email is sent to the voter.When the request is accepted,a voter
id along with initial password is mailed and in the case of rejection
a message is sent. Same is the case with election commissioner.

2.5) User Characteristics:

All users of the system are expected to have basic knowledge of using a
computer as well as using the internet.

2.6) Constraints:

People must have internet connection so as to interact with the system.

Each customer is identified by a particular username and password

The database is daily updated.

Credit card payment not included.

Limited to HTTP/HTTPS.
