Name of the project
The name of our project on which we will do work is Coupons.com . Our project will base on ASP.NET with coding in C#, xml, html, JavaScript, css .
It will be general website for users so that they can get the coupons of various products of many companies. On this website we will provide coupons online at home to users or clients.
In the project , there will be two user only Admin and client user.
Admin will have authority to enter new company and coupons of the companies. He could also be able to update and delete the company as well as coupons of the companies.
The client user could register and create its accounts. Client could select company 1st and then coupon of the company. And will able to print the coupon of that.
Statement about the problem
Till now in coupon system there is no security whether a particular coupon is legal or not and also it is very difficult to maintain and update the record of various coupons. Moreover, most of the work involved in the process has to be done manually which is very time consuming and cumbersome and also, it reduces the efficiency, accuracy and speed of retrieval of data. It is not that no effort has been made towards this end. An attempt to get the complete working automated failed as the system could not be integrated into a functional whole. We feel that this shortcoming becoming glaringly evident. A discussion with our project guide produce enthusiastic response and we decide to take the challenge. If we use an online coupon system then it is not possible for anyone to use duplicate coupons. It will be very easy to maintain and update the various coupons provided by various companies. It will also be less time consuming then the traditional coupon system. If any user requested for any coupon in traditional coupons system then he will have to do a lot of hard word. But in online coupon system he/she can get easily coupons at home.
Why is the particular topic choose ?
We choose this project because traditional couponing is not so effective in maintain and update the record of system. Also the traditional coupning system is not so secure. So we want to make an alternative of the traditional couponing. That will represents the most flexible, effective, fraud-resistant, print-from-the-web coupon solution available in the marketplace. And will also be offers users coupons which they could print at home, then will able to redeem at retailers. Traditional coupons are not so much secure. Someone can make a duplicate of any coupon in a traditional coupon system. But it is not possible in this couponing system here we can easily check if the given coupon is right or wrong in our database. In traditional coupon system a lot of efforts & time is required. But in online coupons system anyone can get coupons online at home. He will not have to do any hard work. He will get an print of his coupon directly. It is also suitable for a company to make changes in his coupon database. So a very less effort required by a company to maintain coupon system then a traditional coupon system. Thus to overcome all the above limitations of traditional couponing system we make this project.
Objective and scope of the project
The main objectives and the scope of the project will be :•
Providing user friendly interface
•
Keeping coupons records online
•
To get all the information about the various categories and subcategories of coupons online
•
Easy access of data
•
Easy maintenance
•
Maintaining data consistency
•
Providing better performance
•
Increasing the efficiency through automation
•
Adequate validation checks for data entry
•
Facility to update the data time to time

Adequate security of the database
Methodology(including a summary of the project)
Coupons.com will provides coupon marketing and technology solutions for publishers and advertisers. The project is based on ASP.NET with coding in C#. The use of this project is simple and secure. It will be a three tier project. These three tiers are following:1. Database tier 2. Business tier 3. Presentation tier This project will have the various type coupons of various companies which will be stored in database. So we will use SQL SERVER 2008 to store all the data about various type of coupons related to various company’s. We will use some stored procedures to ignore the security leakage. We will use ASP.NET 4.0 to make Business tier in C# language. By using C# language we will make DLL(Dynamic Linked Libraries) . These libraries have all the coding which will be used to insert data , select data, update data, delete data from a database . we will use DLL files because these will be highly secure. For presentation tier , we will use a set of .net languages. These will be following
XML will be used for sitemapping. It will provide fast links for various parts of the website.
HTML will be used for static designing of website. All the static designing of pages will be done in it.
JAVASCRIPT will be used for some dynamic effects. It uses a java enabled web browser to execute.
CSS will also be used for designing. It will be used make our website attractive and good looking.
C#. NET will be used for logic development for the project. It will be used for asp pages.
Hardware and software to be used
In this step we may analyze the processing capabilities of the system on which the proposed system will be developed and the specification may be divided into two categories namely:
1. Hardware Specifications
Processor Minimum: 1000 megahertz (MHz) Pentium processor Recommended: 2 gig hertz (GHz) core2 dual processor
RAM Minimum: 1 gigabytes (GB) Recommended: 4 GB
Hard Disk 6 GB of available space required on installation drive 2 GB of available space required on system drive
Display Minimum: 800 x 600 256 colors Recommended: 1024 x 768 High Color - 16-bit
2. Technologies to be used
ASP.NET 4.0 will be used for developing the web pages.
C#. NET will be used for logic development for the project.
SQL SERVER will be used for managing the database at server side.
INTERNET EXPLORER will be used to run this website.
IIS SERVER will be used to deploy this website.
XML will be used for sitemapping.
HTML will be used for static designing of website.
JAVASCRIPT will be used for some dynamic effects.
CSS will also be used for designing.
3. OS required Microsoft Windows XP / higher version of Windows OS required.
Testing technologies to be used
The testing technologies for the project are Internet explorer and the IIS (Internet Information server). The main output of the project will be seems in internet explorer. Internet explorer will execute the asp pages made by using ASP.NET 4.0 . It will provide the view of our website that how it looks and will it work or not? The IIS is the part of operating system and it is present at the server side not the developer side. It will be used to deploy our website over the internet so that anyone on internet can open & use this website.
CONTRIBUTION MAKE BY PROJECT This project will make a lot of contribution to solve the problems associated with traditional coupon system. In traditional coupon system there is no security whether a
particular coupon is legal or not and also it is very difficult to maintain and up date the record of various coupons. Moreover, most of the work involved in the process has to be done manually which is very time consuming and cumbersome and also, it reduces the efficiency, accuracy and speed of retrieval of data. If we use an online coupon system then it is not possible for anyone to use duplicate coupons. It will be very easy to maintain and update the various coupons provided by various companies. It will also be less time consuming then the traditional coupon system. If any user requested for any coupon in traditional coupons system then he will have to do a lot of hard word. But in online coupon system he/she can get easily coupons at home. Thus it will make a lot of contribution to overcome the limitations of traditional couponing system.
