15. Limitations of the System The features, that could have been implemented but were not included in the final system due to the lack of time, are listed below: A dynamic week calendar with working hours’ time for each working day for showing scheduled things for that particular day so that employee may get to know about things to be get done. Search option could have been more dynamic for different sections in proposed system by implementing Ajax’s partial rendering of the webpage. Proposed system contains only single file uploading at a time while multiple file uploading at a single time could be one of the dynamic feature of the system. E-PM: An Online Project Manager 15

16. Success Criteria High Security Level A Quality User Interface with Easy Navigation. Completion of Functionalities Satisfaction of End User Well Documented Report Good Time Management. E-PM: An Online Project Manager 16

17. Future Enhancements Implementation of dynamic week calendar for showing schedules for a particular day. Implementation of advanced security check for preventing confidential information by tracking users based on IP addresses and MAC Addresses. Implementation of Multiple Asynchronous files uploading by using Ajax. A history module can be developed for keeping records of things performed by users while working on the system.
