of the system.
1.5.1 Section 2: This section of the SRS will provide the general factors that affect the
product and its requirements. It provides the background for those requirements. The items
such as product perspective, product function, user characteristics, constraints, assumptions
and dependencies and requirements subsets are described in this section.

2)Overall Description:
2.1) Solution Domain
The Online Library Management System(LiMS) is an intranet based application used by
 Libraries to improve the efficiency of Librarians, and Users. LiMS to be developed

provides books catalog and information to members and helps them decide on the books
to borrow from the library. The Librarian can keep the books catalog updated all the time
so that the members get the updated information all the time.

2.2)Software Interfaces:

Data Base : SQL Server

Development End ; JAVA.J2EE,NETBEANS

operating system : windows 2000/xp/unix/linux

A firewall will be used with the server to prevent unauthorized access to the system.

2.3)Hardware Interfaces:

Server side:-

operating System : windows 2000/xp

processor : pentium 2.0 GHz or higher

RAM : 256MB or more

Hard Drive : 10 GB or more

CLIENT SIDE:-

operating system : windows 2000/xp/unix/linux

processor : pentium 2.0 GHz or higher

RAM : 256MB or more

hard drive : 10 GB or more

2.4)Communication Interface:-

Client on Intranet will be using TCP/IP protocol.

 • 2.5)Product Functions

The Online Library System provides online real time information about the books
available in the Library and the user information. The Product functions are more or less
the same as described in the product perspective. The functions of the system include the
system providing different type of services based on the type of users
[Member/Librarian].

• The member should be provided with the updated information about the books
catalog.

• Provisions for the members to borrow the books they want, if all the other
required rules hold good.

• The member is given a provision to check his account information and change
the account information any time.

• The members are provided with the books available roster and allowed to choose

book catalog.

• The members when complete the book borrowing or returning process, the due to
be paid by the member must be calculated and the information about the member
and the due amount is sent to the university billing system.

• The system uses the security system to provide the login facility to the users.

• 2.6)User characteristics

The users of the system are members, librarian of the university and the administrators
who maintain the system. The members and the librarian are assumed to have basic
knowledge of the computers and Internet browsing. The administrators of the system to
have more knowledge of the internals of the system and is able to rectify the small
problems that may arise due to disk crashes, power failures and other catastrophes to
maintain the system. The proper user interface, users manual, online help and the guide
to install and maintain the system must be sufficient to educate the users on how to use
the system without any problems.

2.7)Constraints

• The information of all the users must be stored in a database that is accessible by the
Online Library System.

• The Online Library System is connected to the university computer and is running all
 24 hours a day.

• The users access the Online Library System from any computer within the college
campus.

• The billing system is connected to the Online Library System and the database used
