The course, CSC 3299 as offered in Ajayi Crowther University is a compulsory subject offered by every computer science student in the 2nd semester of the third academic year with the objective of enabling students to come into contact with real life applications regarding the knowledge and skills gained in both theoretical and practical courses of the university. The core courses of Computer Science offered by ACU are both theory and laboratory practical -based and aid in providing a theoretical concept or ‘base’ to the students so that they are equipped with sufficient knowledge for joining the work force after completion of under-graduation. SIWES on the other hand helps the students familiarize themselves with the experience of being employed in their field and effectively learning and applying the knowledge required by carrying out their activities in the offices and fields. 1.2 Objectives of SIWES The general objectives if SIWES are outlined as follows: Helping students break free from the theoretical world of textbooks and class courses and leap into...

...Overview of Automated Grading Systems If bridges and buildings were made like we make software, then we would have disasters happening daily. I have heard this several times from many people. It is sad but true. Buggy software is the bane of the software industry. One of the ways of increasing software quality is by proper education. Several professionals from the software industry also attest to this. They believe that a greater emphasis should be given to quality and testing in university courses. But simply explaining the principles of software quality is not sufficient. Students tend to forget theoretical principles over time. Practical exposure and experience is equally important. Students should be put in an environment where they can appreciate the importance of quality software and can experience the benefits of processes that enhance quality. Many universities have a period of internship for the students in which they work in a software company and experience these factors first hand. However because the internship usually is of a duration of 3-6 months, it is not sufficient to instill the importance of quality. Emphasis on code quality should be made a part of the entire software curriculum for it to have proper impact. Every assignment that the students submit should be subjected to the same quality standards that an industrial project would be subjected to. Having university assignments adhere to industrial standards will result in the faculty having to spend...

...the Implementation Name Institution Abstract This project was about usability security and its implementation. It involved the designing and development of a suitable human computer interface to provide a log on module for the Kuwait armed forces computer system. The development focused on relieving the user from the load of creating, remembering and maintaining their passwords for the login process. Based on the fact that the Kuwait information and communication technology literacy levels are still in their infancy stage, the conventional authentication system was proved unfriendly to the user. This system was developed with this in mind. This proposed system relies on the user logging in to the system after identifying five pictures they uploaded earlier from among a grid of twenty five pictures. By selecting the five correct pictures which they uploaded, the system was able to successfully authenticate the user. Using these pictures greatly reduced the mental load on a user who was required to remember strong passwords that ended up being compromised (Badre 2002). The use of pictures or graphical images for authentication or access control is a practice called biometrics that is gaining popularity in establishing system security today. Due to the need to deliver a solution in the shortest time possible the agile methodology was employed here. This project was considered a rapid applications development (RAD) project (Martin...

... Sahitya Kalidindi Tejal Bhandari Date of submission: 24th December ‘13 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Virtual currencies are increasingly becoming a part of not only the virtual world but also in the real world. There are various problems associated with virtual currencies. Due to its similar nature to real currency, a lot of questions have risen regarding its acceptance among the people in the market, and the reliability factor. In the following paper, we have discussed the different types of virtual currencies based on their exchange factor. Bitcoins, a type 3 virtual currency is one of the most popular crypto currencies. We have discussed the characteristics and the process of transacting Bitcoins in detail, emphasizing on the pros and cons of its usage. We have also compared it with the ‘fiat’ money and mentioned its legal aspects. In the end we have mentioned a few areas for further research in relation to Bitcoins.

...Accuracy and security is not been so defined. Grading System is the most commonly used in computing and analyzing the performance, talent and skills of students. It is designed to provide incentive reward for achievement and assist in identifying problems of the student. The Computerized Grading System will help both the faculty staffs and the students to have easy access on the records and past records, the easier way. The said system will also lessen the staffs on consuming too much time recording and effort locating records of the students. It will also be connected to the schools’ website (if there is), for the students, so they can check their grades online. The staff in charge will do updating of grades. The Computerized Grading System will also be a convenience for the professors as well, because by this, delayed passing of grade will be prevented and class cards, certificate of grades, and transcript of records will be processed in a speedy way. By this,...

...internet based environment posed a challenging task for system and network administrator. This statement is true and is still very much applicable till these days as it is a well known fact that authentication is being widely incorporated as part of access control for most systems. Authentication has been the catalyst for business organization in information protection and security. Implementation of access control policies, standards or procedures involves the identification of appropriate authentication mechanism whereby the criticality of the information being protected are being used as justification for having a more refined authentication mechanism as compared to a more simple approach. Without the appropriate authentication mechanism in place, attacker could easily gain access to systems or applications by utilizing personal information, gained through various means, including but not limited to social engineering. Conventional textual passwords are the most common mechanism used in authentication. This method requires a user to enter their username and password, either in alphabet or numeric, or more commonly, a mixture of both forms as authentication tokens to gain access to systems or applications. Two recent surveys have shown that users choose short, simple passwords that are easily guessable, for example, “password”, personal names of family members, names of pets, and dictionary words (Sasse et al. 2001; Brown et al. 2004). Ironically, these practices are...
