PROJECT REPORT
All the students are required to submit a report based on the project work done by
them during the sixth semester.
SYNOPSIS (SUMMARY/ABSTRACT) :
All students must submit a summary/abstract separately with the project report.
Summary, preferably, should be of about 3-4 pages. The content should be as
brief as is sufficient enough to explain the objective and implementation of the
project that the candidate is going to take up. The write up must adhere to the
guidelines and should include the following:
• Name / Title of the Project
• Statement about the Problem Why is the particular topic chosen?
• Objective and scope of the Project
• Methodology (including a summary of the project)
• Hardware & Software to be used
• Testing Technologies used
• What contribution would the project make?
TOPIC OF THE PROJECT- This should be explicitly mentioned at the beginning of the
Synopsis. Since the topic itself gives a peep into the project to be taken up,
candidate is advised to be prudent on naming the project. This being the overall
impression on the future work, the topic should corroborate the work.
OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE: This should give a clear picture of the project.
Objective should be clearly specified. What the project ends up to and in what
way this is going to help the end user has to be mentioned.
PROCESS DISCRIPTION: The process of the whole software system
proposed, to be developed, should be mentioned in brief. This may be supported
by DFDs / Flowcharts to explain the flow of the information.
RESOURCES AND LIMITATIONS: The requirement of the resources for
designing and developing the proposed system must be given. The resources
might be in form of the hardware/software or the data from the industry. The
limitation of the proposed system in respect of a larger and comprehensive system
must be given.
CONCLUSION: The write-up must end with the concluding remarks- briefly
describing innovation in the approach for implementing the Project, main
achievements and also any other important feature that makes the system stand
out from the rest.
The following suggested guidelines must be followed in preparing the Minor Project
