Fabric-GC: A Blockchain-based Gantt Chart System for Cross-organizational Project Management

Large-scale production is always associated with more and more development and interaction among peers, and many fields achieve higher economic benefits through project cooperation. However, project managers in the traditional centralized approach cannot rearrange their activities to cross-organizational project management. Thanks to its characteristics, the Blockchain can represent a valid solution to the problems mentioned above. In this article, we propose Fabric-GC, a Blockchain-based Gantt chart system. Fabric-GC enables to realize secure and effective cross-organizational cooperation for project management, providing access control to multiple parties for project visualization. Compared with other solutions, the proposed system is versatile, as it can be applied to project management in different fields and achieve effective and agile scheduling. Experimental results show that Fabric-GC achieves stable performance in large-scale request and processing distributed environments, where the data synchronization speed of the consortium chain reached four times faster than a public chain, achieving faster data consistency

Geographic Information System; Route Tracking System Using Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)

Nowadays the mobile mapping which incorporation with handheld PDA devices for field data collection is rapidly expanding it wings of Geographic Information System (GIS). While the wireless technology is increasing through time, the usage of mobile GIS has become a very useful tool in any organizations and companies. The introduction of mobile technology actually has resulted in the fundamental paradigm which shifts into the integration of a centralized GIS database engine and other web presentation formats with the mobile data collection units. For mobile mapping, the lightweight GIS application ArcPad and small portable computers such as for example; the Compaq PocketPC are a viable option for field GIS. ESRI® ArcPad™ software is a mobile mapping and geographic information system (GIS) technology. Mobile computing is creating fundamental changes in the way we utilize geography with the ability to bring your work with you and interact directly with the world around you. Mobile GIS comprises the integration of four technologies: GIS, lightweight hardware, the global positioning system (GPS), and wireless communication. Here it emphasis the research on the GIS, more on focusing on the GIS in the mobile environment. It presents the idea of applying GIS concept in tracking route where mobile GIS will combine up with GPS as a tracking movement coordinate tool. The Sashimi Model is used as a guidance to monitor the project progress. The methodology is suitable as it stresses on both side which is the requirement side and the implementation side. A simulation of route tracking system would be presented as the findings of the while research. Further more the simulation present the idea of the real-time tracking the route using data output from the GPS receiver

Development of Database and Web Site for D3Multisport

Before this project, D3Multisport.com did not have a software application to track and monitor personal and progress information on athletes training for triathlon events. The previous process was manual, and although it helped provide a training schedule for an athlete it required the data be updated by hand. The process of developing a training program on an excel spreadsheet provided a good basis for the athlete to start the program, but was not suited to make dynamic adjustments if not optimally suited for the athlete. The application created in this project was designed to keep a coach updated on the progress of an athlete. If necessary, the coach can make modifications to the athletes training program in order to work on any weakness the athlete may be showing. It is important that both coach and athlete have access to updated information related to the training program. The previous process did not provide this requirement because the coach and athlete were not present with each other at all times. Another problem with the previous process was that both coach and athlete might wish to add training criteria to the training program. The application now provides this functionality. The initial prototype used Microsoft\u27s Access technology with Data Access Pages (DAP). This ensured the web site had the necessary work flow the users were expecting and allowed them to update information to a database. Once the prototype was approved, Microsoft .NET ASP technologies were used to create the web site. The Access database was reverse engineered into a Microsoft MS SQL Server database. Both the coach and athlete are now able to access the same database via a web browser. A central computer acts as the web server providing access to the central database and downloads web pages. This enables the coach to keep abreast of the athlete and provide updated real-time progress information. Providing a web interface to a central database allows the athlete to record current data on a daily basis and give the coach the ability to analyze this data and make any changes necessary, keeping the athlete on track
