Tools for Data Visualization in Business Intelligence: Case Study Using the Tool Qlikview

This research paper, discusses the different data visualization tools that are implemented for Business Intelligence by different organizations for the purpose of business analysis. Even though all tools are basically used for the same purpose, that is, data visualization, exploration and analysis, but each tool are very different from the other. Here we draw comparisons between all the tools and see that which tool proves to be most efficient and most effective in fulfilling the user demands. A case study on a project university analysis application is also discussed using the business intelligence and data visualization tool Qlikview. Hypothetical data of the last 5 years are used to analyze the placement record of both the universities. At the end of the case study a comparative analysis is shown in between two universities and analyze the performance of both the universities.

A Survey on Challenges in Software Development During the Adoption of Agile Environment

In the recent years, agile development has received increasing interest in software development organization. Agile adoption has lead to increase in productivity and has better outcome than the traditional software development methods. However, agile adoption also come with challenges which can adversely affect the project. In this paper, the challenges of agile implementation and its solutions are discussed.

An estimation technique in agile archetype using story points and function point analysis

Agile approach is responsible to bring out the high quality of deliverable in a shorter period. It has been observed that existing development methods do not focus on the early stages of estimation of size, cost, effort and time due to uncertainty in requirements. In this paper, an estimation model using agile methodologies has been proposed, so that a development process can be estimated from the initial stage to the delivery of the project. This paper also proposes a new algorithmic approach and is compared with an existing algorithmic approach. Further, this paper discusses the implementation of a project according to the proposed estimation model and new algorithmic approach. At the end of the paper, a comparison between existing and proposed model, strengths and its implications of proposed model have been discussed.

Impact of Different Estimation Approaches in Traditional and Agile Development

Today, Agile is the biggest buzzword in the IT industry. An attempt has been made to describe how Agile estimation is done, how it differs from traditional approaches. This paper summarizes the existing estimation methods that are used for time estimation in development of systems through Agile methodology. Thereafter, a discussion about the two most important and popular estimation techniques, i.e. Ideal Engineering Time and Story Points, how they are used and their downsides are done.

A Study on Cyber Security, Its Issues and Cyber Crime Rates in India

In the current technological era, use of computers becomes an essential part of our lives. But this part is also affected by a new breed of security known as cyber security. It is a global issue that arises by different organisations. This paper presents the global cyber security scenario, cyber security and its practices, and firms who are major stakeholders in the cyber security. At the end counter measures of cyber crimes, its average rate is calculated in India during the years 2009–2013.

Difficulties and challenges faced in testing AJAX applications

Manual testing is preferred over automated testing as if user interface components need to be changed very frequently. But there are certain situations when automated testing is helpful for quality software delivery like in regression testing, test suite needs to be executed each time there is some fault found that needs to be fixed and assuring no new issue aroused due to the fixing of that fault. Thus regression test suite is premium option for automation. This paper is written to cover the basics of Ajax technology and its working model. The user interface reverse engineering process guides in the automation of the testing process. The paper also covers problems and challenges encountered during testing of Ajax applications.

Appraisement of different software estimation models: A rumination and contradistinction

In software project development, proclamation of programming happens after a few programming, reporting, testing and bug settling. The coordinated philosophy helps the product venture improvement in giving distinct options for customary task administration by presenting a few effort and expense estimation models, yet the best technique to appraise productively has still not been found. As few models are agreement based and others are relapsing based so it gets to be troublesome for the analyzer to settle on a choice. In this paper, a few models on agile methodology are being looked at on a few parameters, in order to check the disadvantages and also the advantages of the same furthermore to become acquainted with the distinctive estimating models.

Success and Failure Factors that Impact on Project Implementation Using Agile Software Development Methodology

In the agile software development, there are different factors behind the success and failure of projects. Paper represents the success, failure, and mitigation factors in agile development. A case study is presented depending on all of these factors after the completion of small projects. Each team grouped into 10 team members and developed the project with different approaches. Each group maintained the documentation from initial user stories and factors employed on the projects. Final outcomes are observed based on the analysis of efficiency, accuracy, time management, risk analysis, and product quality of the project. Final outcomes are identified using the different approaches.

Automation Software Testing on Web-Based Application

Agile testing is a software testing exercise, follows the rules of agile policy, and considers software improvement as a critical part like a client in the testing process. Automated testing is used to do this in order to minimize the amount of manpower required. In this paper, a traditional automation testing model has been discussed. A model has been proposed for automated agile testing, and an experimental work has also been represented on the testing of a Web application. Finally, outcomes are evaluated using the agile testing model, and there is a comparison between traditional and agile testing models.
