sangeetha Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 I want to create an online examination project for a medical transcription company.. i am doing my final year MCA degree course..as a part of my course we do need to do project in a company, an application project. I thought to create an student registration module ,where student can register to write exam,then administration to manipulate exam/question,student module with thier details and report module with results.Other than this modules what can i add newly to make my project worthy to my mca level..my staffs at college feels that there is no complexity in doing only those above said modules.please do suggest some more new features that can be added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amuthan Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 can i include a feature like mutilingual tool.. that is the question can be displayed in different languages.you can, try some WAP related stuff, that means you can give a facility like, the student can attend the exam with help of Mobile phone or PDA .or you can add some TTS (Text to Speech Synthesis) stuffs, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sangeetha Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 ya..i do have... can i use encryption algorithm for secuity in passwords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synook Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Yes - sha1 should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AElliott Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Well, sha1 is a cryptographic hashing algorithm. Encryption implies that the user can use something like a key to decrypt it later for retrieval, this is not the case with cryptographic hashing algorithms since they are destructive.Something like AES would be an idea if you want it to be retrievable - but really you do want it to be impossible to simply decrypt in case someone obtains the key needed for decryption, so sha1 (or perhaps sha256/512 if you want to just go nuts ) is a good choice. Salts are also important to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangeetha Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 can u pls explain me how it would be useful in my project.. here i am doing encryption mechanism for password and username security..frankly i don know about why i am using encrytpion.. just had an idea whether i can use encryption..

sangeetha Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 can i generate passwords for the candidates who have registered securely for taking up different levels of examination ..if so , how can i generate.. can i use sha1 algorithm for this purpose..thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangeetha Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 can u clearly explain me how to implement that..pls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
