1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose of the Project

In the today’s era, when life has become so fast, so busy and so pressured that for many it become stressful depriving us of pleasure. Everyone wants to perform their task on time without any hurdle and it’s difficult for every person to remember each task. In cooperate level world, manager who perform number of work activities required scheduler which help them to manage their activities and pretend like personal assistant which automatically schedule meeting by reading mail from user account.

1.2 Problem statement

In Today’s life, we miss a lot of our daily activities, social events and we can’t make great use of our time effectively. According to physiological science over 18,500 individuals, ages 18 to 99, were asked about memory problems and the lifestyle factors. Unsurprisingly, memory problems were more prevalent as people aged. Twenty percent of the respondents had memory issues, with 14 percent of them being young adults, 22 percent being middle-aged and 26 percent being older. There is call for many meetings over email and you have to go through each one of them along with your daily schedule chart and then fix the meeting according to the appropriate call. Furthermore, following issue are trace.

  1. Need of memorization for every task
  2. Time being wasted in rescheduling
  3. Reading email one by one and fix meet up.

1.3 Purpose of this document

The purpose of this document is to present a detail information about scheduling working activities. Identify the major problem that come in our daily life and to find such a system who schedule task on priority base.

1.3.1 Intended audience

In first phase of this application, we intend to target cooperate level person who are in need of personal assistant for scheduling office activities and keep care of priority of task.

1.3.2 Vision and scope

The android scheduler is aiming to maximize the accuracy of human working by scheduling their routine activities and task. People have to remember each task, assignment, social event so it is a hectic task although, according to psychologist, human brain is made for processing not for memorizing purpose. This android application is developed to maximize the human working efficiency as well as to reduce the time wasting reading all email for fixing meeting.

Vision statement

We aim to free your mind from memorizing your routine task”

1.4 Existing system

Before the development of this application, number of android scheduler are available in the market they can only add event, give remainder and pop up on respective time and so one thing which we find out is none of scheduler work dynamically all are based on static algorithm the data is stored in user local data base.

1.4.1 Existing system description

There are many competitors such as

  1. X.ai:
    1. You receive a meeting request, but don’t want to deal with the back and forth to get it scheduled
    2. You Cc: Amy, handing the job over to her
    3. Amy emails with your guest to find the best time, knowing your schedule.
    4. Like magic, the meeting invite arrives in your inbox
  2. Google Calendar:

Google Calendar allows users to create and edit events. Events have a set start time and stop time, with an option for an “All-day event”. Users can enable a “Recurring” functionality with optional parameters for frequency. Users can add a color to an event for recognition or to distinguish the event from others. Users can optionally set notifications, with options for type (email, mobile push notification) and time. Locations can be added for easy understanding of an event’s place. Events are viewable in different types of setups, including day, week, month, or schedule. Users can invite other people to events; for other Google Calendar users, the event becomes visible in their calendar, and for non-Google Calendar users, an email will have options for “Yes”, “No”, or “Maybe”. Privacy settings allow the user to define the levels of public visibility of the entire calendar or individual events. Although the calendar defaults to showing users event times in their local time, users can specify a different time zone for an event. Users can enable or disable the visibility of special calendars, including a Birthdays calendar, that automatically retrieves dates of births from a user’s Google contacts and displays the dates on a yearly basis, and a Holidays calendar, a country-specific calendar featuring dates of special occasions.

1.4.2 Problems in the Existing system

They are certain drawbacks such as

  1. X.ai does not have a mobile app and user has to go online to check the bot mail.
  2. Google Calendar is not scheduling the meeting over mail automatically and is not looking for conflict in meeting over all.

The other system in market are not intelligent because they are all static and rely on user’s decision.

All existing system act like smart planner but they are not learning from user’s action automatically. All managers have to read all email and fix meeting by taking approval of user so that cause of consuming time. Only a few planners integrate with Facebook, Gmail or other mailing and social media client.

2. SYSTEM ANALYSIS

2.1 Data Analysis

A survey was conducted to determine the thoughts of user regarding the project and the result was

Figure 1: survey report

Mostly those people were convinced to have such an application who wanted to utilize their time effectively and efficiently. Most of their time was wasted to determine which meeting or task should be given more priority over other. This resulted in user being stressed mostly. According to psychologist human mind is not made for memorizing but is made for processing. Rather than user remembering all the daily task, we seek to take the memorization part from user and let him handle the processing part from mind based on the suggestion from application.

2.2 Data flow diagrams

The data flow diagram of project shows that how does flow in project initially requiring the user to select option panel from where he could manually add an event, or can go to mail panel from where he can check his mails and how he could he could manage his social network life easily.

Figure 2: data flow diagram of project

2.2.1 Context Diagram

The context diagram of project shows the boundary that portrays how different entities react with system to get the response required according to the desired query send

Figure 3: context diagram of project

2.2.2 Actor Use Case Diagram

The actor use case diagram shows which user interact with which module to get the satisfying response. There are four actor and the query from user are sent to web service which then send the query, by doing some calculation, to Gmail or Facebook to get the appropriate result

Figure 4: actor use case diagram of project

2.2.3 Sequence Diagram

The sequence diagram shows that which module interacts with which another module to get the response as needed by sending in the desired query.

Figure 5: Sequence diagram of project

2.2.4 System Requirements

For virtual assistant android application, the following system requirement are required.

Hardware Requirement

  • Android mobile
  • At least 1GB ram
  • Secure Wi-Fi connection

Software Requirement

  • Android operating system
  • Version above “Ice Cream Sandwich” (Android operating system)

2.2.4.1 Client, customer and user

We aim to target people from these profession

  • Doctors
  • Teachers
  • Managers
  • Employees
  • Student
  • Entrepreneur

2.2.4.2 Functional & Data Requirement

  1. Sign up with Gmail
  2. User must provide with his schedule on first use
  3. Provide certain permission rights such as reading mail and calendar events
  4. Internet accessibility

2.2.4.3 Nonfunctional requirement

The nonfunctional requirement of project describes how the project should work in order to meet up to user’s expectation

2.2.4.3.1 Look and feel requirements

User will have the right to change the color theme of application and will have the power to set color with respect to the priority of task.

With frequent update within weeks, the UI design may intend to change to give a more realistic view.

2.2.4.3.2 Usability requirements

Since the application will be in update process, therefore we aim to keep the application as much easy as possible so that user don’t get confused or stuck over any process. We will be giving user a swipe tutorial on first time use so that they are familiar with the application working. On every update, we will be notifying user by tutorial or by messages regarding the current changes in application version.

2.2.4.3.3 Security requirement

Every user wants his personal information not to fall in wrong hand. To keep the security of our application upright, we will be creating a web service API where we intend to perform major function calculation and the result be sent to the stand alone android app. The android app will store the information required to work offline in encrypted form in SQL lite database.

2.2.4.3.4 Performance requirement

The foremost requirement of an application from user’s hand point of view is that application does not get hanged or shut down abruptly in the middle of process. Thinking from this perspective, the stand alone android application will be very light weight mostly with very less algorithm so that less memory is utilized from system. All the major work will be done on main server and information result be delivered through web service

2.2.4.3.5 Portability requirements

As android platform keeps on releasing new operating version for android, it keeps on modifying the permission accessibility for an application. Our application will be able to run on all version after version “Ice Cream Sand witch” keeping in perspective that new version of android operating system must allow user to grant permission as required by the virtual assist

2.2.5 Proposed Solutions

We are designing an android application that will be a personal scheduler which will manage our life along with the priorities of task. For instance, if a task is missed, then we will be suggested by the application for the next feasible time for which we could schedule the task. It will manage our social life by integrating with social website like Facebook so to extract birthday and events to see if there is no clash with the current daily life schedule. The target audience are corporate sector people. The application will integrate with a mail service such as Gmail. The application will read the email of user from mail box with the intention of judging it whether it a call for meeting mail. Then it will extract the meeting date/time and match with the current schedule of user’s daily life. Finding the suitable slot for the meeting, user will be given a suggestion whether if he or she accept the call for meeting suggested by the application according to the slot. If user accepts then an automatically mail will be send to the correspond person. With the help of the application, user won’t have to worry about checking the schedule first and then sending the mail. In fact, the mail will be send on the fly by the application. We will also provide the user with a monthly report in pdf regarding the monthly activities performed and missed.

2.2.6 Alternative Solutions

Develop a portal that provides mailing client along with scheduler capabilities and it’s a one in all website which would do all the functionalities but then user has to go online to check and user will have to switch from his current email address to new email address of mailing client provided by the portal.

3. DESIGN CONSIDERATION

3.1 Design Constraints

3.1.1 Hardware Environment

There is no hardware as such required or are used in project.

3.1.2 Software Environment

The Software requirements are as follows:

  1. Android Studio
  2. Gmail Api
  3. Facebook Api
  4. Java

3.1.3 End User Characteristics

The user is expected to be familiar with android application, how the app works and how are apps are installed over phone. They should also be well aware as to how to give various permission to application as asked by reading license agreement.

3.2 Architectural Strategies

3.2.1 Algorithm to be used

The algorithms that are used are:

  1. Java Mail fetch algorithm
  2. Java mail send algorithm
  3. Java place event on calendar
  4. Java store event details
  5. Java fb connect and event data store

3.2.2 Reuse of existing software components

Gmail API:

Gmail API is basically a RESTful API that helps to access mailboxes of Gmail and send mail through Gmail. The Gmail API includes these features as well

  • Easily read the messages from Gmail mailbox
  • Have the permission to send an email from the Gmail mailbox
  • Labels can be easily modified that are applied to thread or messages
  • Can easily perform searching for threads and messages
  • Filters are created to label messages, forward or archive, automatically

Facebook API:

Facebook API is used basically when an android application needs to integrate Facebook services along with it as well

It provides following features:

  • Facebook Login – Authorize people with their Facebook information.
  • Account Log in Kit – Let people log in their account from email address or phone number.
  • Send and share – Give access by which the android application can post content to Facebook.
  • Events app info – Extracts events date and provide it to your application.

3.2.3 Project Management Strategies

The project management strategies are:

  1. Build up a calendar where events could be stored
  2. Integrate with Gmail so that mails could be read
  3. Determine by use machine learning algorithm to determine whether the incoming mail is for a meeting, session or appointment etc
  4. Check if user is available on time slot asked
  5. If yes fix the event on calendar with appropriate details (such as time/day etc)
  6. If no resend an email asking for another time
  7. Integrate with Facebook
  8. Get event details

3.2.4 Development Method

Software development methodology:

The waterfall model is a sequential design process having phase of

  1. Collection of requirement
  2. Once requirements are collected, go for design phase
  3. Once design is ready, implement the logic and build up the system
  4. Once system is ready, go for testing of system
  5. Once all is done, keep proper maintenance of the system

We have used waterfall model as a methodology for software development because the product requirements were well known and fixed to a point which meant no further changes will come in requirement in later stages. Other reasons were that we have expertise on the android technology and there was no incomplete requirement.

Waterfall Model:

  5. Automatically send mail by the approval from user.

5.1.2 Software Process Model

The project will mostly follow the waterfall i.e. traditional development Methodologies. In this model, first we made sure every possible detail requirement is collected. The reason we work in waterfall development methodologies were that our requirements fixed to a point and were sure that there won’t be any change in later phases and also, we had expertise over android technology. Therefore, as soon as the requirement phase was completed, the team went into production mode.

The user requirement phase involves creating the management documents like Software Project management Plan. Further, the team has to make sure all necessary software is available i.e.

  1. User Requirements
  2. Software Requirements Specifications
