Feasibility Study
What are the users demonstrable needs?
User needs a web-based system, which will remove all the above-mentioned Problems that, the user is facing. The user wants a web-based system, which will reduce the bulk of paperwork, provide ease of work, flexibility, fast record finding, modifying, adding, removing and generating the reports.

How can the problem be redefined?

We proposed our perception of the system, in accordance with the problems of existing system by making a full layout of the system on paper. We tallied the problems and needs by existing system and requirements. We were further updating in the layout in the basis of redefined the problems. In feasibility study phase we had undergone through various steps, which are described as under:

How feasible is the system proposed? This was analyzed by comparing the Following:-

Factors with both the existing system and proposed system: Cost:The cost required in the proposed system is comparatively less to the existing system.

Compared to the existing system the proposed system will provides a better working environment in which their will be ease of work and the effort required will be comparatively less than the existing system.

Time:Also the time required generating a report or for doing any other work will be comparatively very less than in the existing system .Record finding and updating will take less time than the existin system.

Labor:In the existing system the number of staff required for completing the work is more while the new system will require quite less number of staff.

FEASABILITY STUDY
Once scope has been identified (with the concurrence of the customer), it is reasonable to ask: Can we build software to meet this scope? Is the project feasible? All too often, software engineers rush past this questions (or are pushed past them by impatient managers or customers), only to become mired in a project that is doomed from the onset. When we are developing the system (software), we must know the proposed system will be feasible or i.e. practically implemented or not it may possible the proposed( candidate ) system may not implemented due to many reasons like it may take long time in development than the specified time limit ,cost may increase than proposed one etc. Therefore we must analyze the feasibility of the system. Feasibility is the analysis of risks, costs & benefits relating to economics, technology & user operation. There are several types of feasibility depending on the aspect they covers. Some important feasibilities is as follows: Technical Feasibility Operational Feasibility Economical Feasibility Behavioral Feasibility

TECHNICAL FEASIBILTIY:The technically feasibility study basically centers on alternatives for hardware, software and design approach to determine the functional aspectsof system. This project on Online Examination will be platform independent since it is being coded in JAVA language (using JSP and SERVLETS).HTML is used to create web pages. MySQL database will be used for storing data. Hardware requirements used are compatible with all O.S. Only authorized person would be able to use the website so it would be secure. The system can also be expanded as per the needs of requirement specification. Technical feasibility centers on the existing manual system of the test management process and to what extent it can support the system. According to feasibility analysis procedure the technical feasibility of the system is analyzed and the technical requirements such as software facilities, procedure, inputs are identified. It is also one of the important phases of the system development activities. The system offers greater levels of user friendliness combined with greater processing speed. Therefore, the cost of maintenance can be reduced. Since, processing speed is very high and the work is reduced in the maintenance point of view management convince that the project is operationally feasible.

OPERATIONAL FEASIBILTY:Operational Feasibility is a measure of how people are able to work with system. This type of feasibility demands if the system will work when developed and installed. Since project is very user friendly so users will find it comfortable to work on this project.

ECONOMICAL FEASIBILITY:Economic analysis is the most frequently used evaluating the effectiveness of proposed system, more commonly known as Benefit analysis. The Benefit analysis is to determine benefits and savings which are expected from candidate system and compare them with cost. If the benefits are more than the cost, then decision is made to design and implement the system. The cost and benefits may be direct or indirect and tangible or intangible. Processing speed is very high and the work is reduced in the maintenance point of view management convince that the project is operationally feasible. Economic analysis is most frequently used for evaluation of the effectiveness of the system. More commonly knows as cost/benefit analysis the procedure is to determine the benefit and saving that are expected from a system and compare them with costs, decisions is made to design and implement the system.

This part of feasibility study gives the top management the economic justification for the new system. This is an important input to the management the management, because very often the top management does not like to get confounded by the various technicalities that bound to be associated with a project of this kind. A simple economic analysis that gives the actual comparison of costs and benefits is much more meaningful in such cases.In the system, the organization is most satisfied by economic feasibility. Because, if the organization implements this system, it need not require any additional hardware resources as well as it will be saving lot of time.

BEHAVIOURAL FEASIBILITY:People are inherently resistant to change and computer has been known to facilitate changes. An estimate should be made of how strong the user is likely to move towards the development of computerized system. These are various levels of users in order to ensure proper authentication and authorization and security of sensitive data of the organization.
