| Summary: | This report describes about the implementation of UTP Web Desktop
Environment using Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) as main programming
languages. The UTP Web Desktop Environment is an online 'desktop' workspace for
student where it contains multiple applications that can be accessed simultaneously
within a single web browser. The system may promote a new way of experiencing web
applications where students are given a bunch of ways to manipulate the system. The
objective of the development of the system is to provide a web-based desktop
environment that allows user to interact with the desktop workspace as same as user's
computer operating system's desktop. Due to some limitation of conventional web
applications where most of the content of it is static and dull, it is also the aim of this
research to explore the feasibility of using AJAX as the main programming language
since it make applications more responsive, interactive, and customizable. To carry out
this study, some researches have been made by comparing the requirement of this system
with a similar system, WebOS which leads to the objectives of this application. Based on
the flow of RAD, the prototypes are developed along with the new ideas of designing it
specifically for student's interest. Some researches have also been made about RSS and
AJAX's components, requirements, and implementation to distinguish the advantages of
using them rather than using other programming languages. The application is driven by
EyeOS MicroServer which responsible for managing web server and AJAX compiler. By
implementing this project for UTP student, the author can conclude that it will provides
students with a cutting edge systems that never been applied before where students may
find it very helpful and interesting to organize their live and work. |
