Dissertation Topic / Title:

(State whether this a Masters or Thesis Dissertation) (Dissertation) Generic web based user tracking tool for performance evaluation

Career Goals:

(Please specify: Type of position sought eg computer applications area or computer development area; type of environment sought eg academia, research lab, industry and location eg USA, home country or other country)

I'd like to have a communication company some day, which provides overall computer human interface to help people communicate better. It will be generic but also want to emphasize interface for disabled children.

Areas of your specialization:

(eg software, hardware, systems, algorithms, more detail if possible...indicate what you are good at and interested in)

software design and program. internet programming.

Project assignments:

(Describe any special duties that you have outside thesis work that are currently assigned to you, eg Mosaic, HPFA, foils developement, software development for parallel systems, please give as much detail as possible...)

web interface for database and web based communication tools.

On what NPAC Main project(s) are you currently working:

database projects: to implement database interface, to maintain pulsar related sites' web servers

Name of associated NPAC project leader(s):

Dave Warner

Type of research you expect to be working on for the next semester:

(describe giving as much detail as possible)

Web Server statistics project
• chosen solution: to use oracle web server. better description of the previous phrase: User query will be sent to the orcle web server and it will handle that request by sending it to oracle database. User interface is through web browser which supports java 1.1., for example netscape 4.0+, IE ??. Also it will have more options to query. In fact, that will be in Java.
• things to be examined while transfer is being done.: Eventually everything will be transfered to new interface with oracle web server but meanwhile another stream of work will be going on, which is to add "user query" on existing WOW based system. Also to test different user tracking ways will be part of it.
• things to do:
  let me put time schedule later by watching the speed of my work.
  
  user interface:
  1. to design
  2. to test off-line
  3. to put on the web
  functionalities to be tested on existing system:
  1. to support sophisticated query
  2. to have user tracking and analysis function
  3. to have npac domain tracking
  oracle web server side work
  1. database table and program design
  2. to create tables
  3. to write and test application
  4. to link with user interface which should be done before.

Communication Tool
• Calendar update:
  to make "from..to.." function
  to have months interface in addition to days based on specific month .
  
• to be added. perhaps 2 weeks of work?

Tracking, analysis, and graduation
• official stuffs:the proposal(at the end of August) , and the defence(December 99).
• about the thesis:
  To have an introduction part , complete frame of literature review part & place of my work in computer science , and plan of final implementation to test done till the proposal.

  Literature review & to describe where I stand at the stream of computer science history :( will take 2 months.

  To organize tracking tools and write some more codes will take 2 weeks.

  To have analysis strategies and neural network program running will take less than a month.

  Conclusion and many times of revision will take the month of december.

  Those described above not necessarily in sequential order , it will be processed parallely along with other projects.

• tracking
• analysis
