STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Time consuming -Existing manual system of voting. Long queues-Students may also leave without voting. High intolerable percentage of lost or even miscounted ballots. Result of the election does not notify all the students immediately. Too much paper work - difficult as papers become bulky. Errors during data entry. Students locked out from voting.The officials who facilitate the voting process and voters
experience hard time using the current voting system-manual system.
OBJECTIVESGeneral objectivesTo analyze the current election system and suggest modern development of an electronic online voting mobile application which will allow voters to cast their votes in a more convenient way.Specific objectives To review the current voting system with a view of specifying
requirements for a mobile application voting system To design a mobile application prototype of a voting system for students. To develop a mobile application voting system that is transparent, reliable,
tamper proof and that will provide a platform for voting of students. To come up with a mobile application that will send reminders through
use of alerts to remind students to vote. Test and review the system for usability and functionality.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION
Provision of improved voting services to students through fast and convenient voting.
Reduction of the cost incurred by the university during voting time in paying the very many clerks employed for the sake of success of the manual system.
Check to ensure that the members who are registered are the only ones who should vote.
reinforce its transparency and fairness.Increased turnout of Votes.
SYSTEM REVIEW
OVS Gujarat Mobile App, is a newer and innovative approach of State Election Commission of Gujarat that provides facilities of User Registration for Online Voting and many other facilities.The main purpose of the application is to enable the voter to create an account and cast a vote online and Ensure transparency.There is research gaps in terms of tools & technology.
SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT METHOD
Rapid Application Development- development methodology designed to give much faster development and higher quality results.
Advantages of RAD• Reduced development time• High quality system is created• Reduce cost• Increased reusability of
components• Greater flexibility• Encourage customer feedback
RESEARCH DESIGN
• Its where the researcher manipulates one variable and manipulates the rest of other variables.
• It is choose based on range of factors i.e. feasibility, time ,Cost, ethics and measurement problems.
• The researcher chose different data collection methods like questionnaires, interviews etc.
• Experimental research design
System Requirement AnalysisFunctional Requirements The system will be able to allow the students to
create an account. Allow registered users to login to the system. The system should authenticate users during
login. i.e. the user should be what he/she claims to be.
The system should allow an authenticated user to cast a vote.
The system should send voting results to students.
The system should allow the administrator (voting officer) to manage candidates. i.e. adding contestants, removing contestants
Non-Functional System will support response time
for addressing severe issues in less time.
system will provide documentation to inform users of system functionality and any change to the system.
system will provide friendly graphical Interface to ensure ease of use when end users utilize system functionality.(Usability)
The system will be able to be integrated in future if need be.
The application will be available all the time for students on google play to download
USE CASE DIAGRAM
Conclusion• This research forms a guideline for election generals in developing a
fully functional system that has the potential to increase voter turnout and participation. subsequently reinforce transparency and fairness.
