14. 14 CONCLUSIONS I feel as though I have handled this project as best I could considering my changes throughout the semester. Given my new skills in time management and development I feel I could do this again on a larger scale.

15. 15 FUTURE WORK Currently I am working on a RestfulAPI that will communicate warranty information from dell to the website. I am also working on a RFID project that will allow for resource checkout to be fully functional

16. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge my Manger Eric Poynter for helping to improve my skills as a developer and professional. I would also like to acknowledge my fiancé Rose Hay for helping believing in me regardless of what I do. 16
