INTRODUCTION
PURPOSE

E-journal system assist with every stage of the publishing process from submission to online publication on the indexing. E-journal is an open source made freely available to journals world for the purpose of making open access publishing available option for more journals. Readers from all over the world can obtain & read our journals without printing copies to be mailed to all over the world, which can be both expensive and slow. An online journals has a great advantage over printed journal , as it is possible to publish an issue as soon as it is ready. It offers the potential to provide reader with more functionality. 1.2 DOCUMENT CONVENTIONS The document follows the following convention while it is being written. The document is written in Times new roman, 14 Text Size Every Document sub heading is written in Bold letter, Times New Roman, 14 Text Size Every document heading is written in bold letter, Times New Roman, 18 text size 1.3 INTENDED AUDIENCE AND READING SUGGESTIONS We are developing our project E-Journal System for all the magazine reader to read journal in internet. This SRS is mainly developed for the project development team. In this team there are developer, coder, tester and documentation writer and the user of the project also. User (Customer): This document is intended to user and customer to make them ensure that this document is well meeting the need of the users.

Project Developer: The project developer will refer to the SRS document to make sure that they developed exactly what the online readers requires. Tester: The tester will read this SRS document and he will ensure that the requirements are understandable from functionality point of view so that he can test the software and validate its working. Document Writer: The document writer is reading the SRS document to ensure that they understand the document well enough to be able to write the users manuals. Maintenance: The SRS document helps the maintenance engineers to understand functionality of the system, a clear knowledge of the functionality can help them to understand design and code. Suggestions 1. The user can read the whole SRS document but for him Introduction, Overall description and System features is much required the software performance. 2. The developer must go through the whole SRS for understanding the requirement and functioning of software. 3. The designer and coder must see the class and object diagram and state transmission diagram for coding the modules. 4. A tester must be aware of coding language and visit through the code section and check the required output. 5. The document writer should write the qualitative document so that it becomes easy and understand to every one.

reading & uploading of new or old journals and many other facilities . The E-Journal System is supposed to have the following features. The product provides the public members with online reading & uploading new journals capabilities and the E-Journal System is up and running all day. The system provides logon facility to the users.

The system provides the members with the option to check their account and/or change their options like password of the account whenever needed all through the day . The system allows the users for uploading & accessing journals 24 hours a day The system lets the adminstrater/expert/editor to check which all members have uploaded the journals and whether they can upload the journals or not. The system allows the expert to see all the journals uploaded & check them to accept or reject for publishing online.

We have a editorial department, which manages the journals to be placed on the online publication. The features that are described in this document are used in the future phases of the software development cycle. The features described here meet the needs of all the users. The success criteria for the system are based in the level up to which the features described in this document are implemented in the system. 1.5

2.5 DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION CONSTRAINTS The user/writers/readers must be compatible with the Internet applications. The E-Journal System is connected to the internet server and is running all 24 hours a day. The users access the E-journal System from any computer that has Internet browsing capabilities and an Internet connection. The users must have their correct usernames and passwords to enter into the E-Journal System website.

The writer & readers must know the use of computer, internet & how to post ?. 2.5 USER DOCUMENTATION Online help is provided for each of the feature available with the E-Journal. All the applications provide an on-line help system to assist the user. The nature of these systems is unique to application development as they combine aspects of programming (hyperlinks, etc) with aspects of technical writing (organization, presentation). Online help is provided for each and every feature provided by the system. The User Manual describes the use of the system to users and admins. It describes the use of the system on mobile systems. Also, a Read Me file is typically included as a standard component. The Read Me includes a Whats New With This Release section, and a discussion of compatibility issues with earlier releases. Since the installation of E-Journal is a complex process, our experts will do it. So an installation Guide will not be provided to the user. 2.6 ASSUMPTIONS AND DEPENDENCIES The users have sufficient knowledge of computers. The users computer should have Internet connection and Internet server capabilities. The users know the English language, as the user interface will be provided in English. The user should have registered in the E-jounal website
