Our client had two online shopping websites: one older and less user friendly, and one updated and easy to use. She wanted to only use the newer one, but didn’t want to lose customers from her older site and its different domain name (for which she was paying an additional fee). Her highest priority, however, was to increase her websites’ traffic and visibility in search engines.

Christmas in the park is an annual event held in San Jose downtown every year during Christmas time. Even though the event is held between the end of November and the beginning of January, the rest of the year is spent on searching for sponsors and planning the event. The website provides a medium for general population to gather information about the event. The admin/user also wants to be able to access the files easily and be able to edit the articles without contacting technical support. The objective is to make the data easily accessible and make the website more user friendly. One of the challenges Christmas in the Park has is keeping the website up-to-date. Editing the website currently requires HTML knowledge, thus requires IT involvement. It can cause delay in publishing the latest information. Christmas in the Park is seeking to update their website without outside help.

The original purpose of this project was to update the College of Science newsletter and provide maintenance updates to their website. The project was expanded to include redesigning and updating the College of Science Advising Center’s website. Updates to COSAC’s website included upgraded navigation, fixing links, adding new content, and fixing previously broken content. One interesting item of note was that due to the COSAC website’s broken navigation index, there was an entire section of the website that was inaccessible. This section included information on how where and how to start applying for internships and how to start careers outside of the university.

Going Evergreen is seeking an Android application that can be used in order to communicate between the staff and the health advocates. The messages that are sent between the the health advocates and the staff need to be stored in a database in order to create an archive history of the messages. The Android application will be incorporating Twilio in order to send messages between the users of this application. Message templates will be provided for the users to quickly send text messages to each other. Twilio is a cloud based application so we assume that the messages that are being distributed between users will be saved in the cloud as well. We also assume that we will be able to retrieve this data from the Twilio application in order to keep track of all messages sent and create an archive of messages based off date and time the messages were sent.

Martin Luther King Junior Library is a public library, a collaboration of San Jose Public library and the San Jose State University. Students of SJSU and the general public can access information about the library through the two websites: https://library.sjsu.edu/ and http://www.sjpl.org/king. Both these sites provide basic services to the Dr.Martin Luther King Junior library like working hours of the library, event calendar, reservation of study rooms and giving access to journals and ebooks in various fields. Since the library is physically huge, the library administration wants its users to be able to locate the different sections across the floors easily. A smartphone app would be a very apt solution to this and hence, the MLK app team, comprising of students from the Department of Computer Science, SJSU will be designing a smartphone app for this need.

Andrew Kalenda
Jason Hungerford
Meredith Leu
The challenge set forth by our client, Dr. Taylor of the Computer Science Department at San Jose State University, is to create an automatic grading system that he and other faculty of the CS Department can use. Our project, WebLion, would be a compilation of a plagiarism detector, unit tester, coding style checker, and code-coverage viewer, in a language-agnostic manner. The software will use Git as a version control system and a way for instructors to provide sample code to students. Ideally our solution will be reusable by other campuses.
