Thanks, Albertine Flora. Doctors.com - Online Community of Doctors Project Description: Here we can implement server-side components which provide services for managing an online community of Doctors. The primary purpose of the system will be to allow doctors to connect with other doctors possessing particular specialization like pediatrics , Neurology, etc for the purpose of seeking their opinion and suggestion in complicated cases and their help if needed during major surgeries . Doctors register on the system and provide their name, email address, and their specialization . These specialization consist of a list of patient case histories handled by the doctor. Once signed up, Doctors can post a "NeededHelp" when they want the assistance of another doctor. They specify a description of the patient's disease, and required specialization. Doctors are then matched with postings for "NeededHelp" based on their specialization. Once Doctors are connected, they can contact each other by email , pass on multimedia files containing patients x-ray , etc and online- surgery is quite common these days. System Design: o The technology mainly used by this project will be Enterprise Java Beans . Doctors, Specialization, NeededHelp will be written as entity beans . o JDBC will be used to connect to the database Bibliography: 1. http://sern.ucalgary.ca/Courses/CPSC/547/W2000/webnotes/EJBExamples/EJBContent.html Synopsis: The above site is the major thought provider for the above project proposal. It talks about online community of geeks where geeks can register with their skills possessed . It gives a complete overview of the project with system design of both pre-EJB and EJB . It also has source code for the project.
