IN CHAPTER ONE, ADD THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS
1.9 Significance of the Study
This section explains why the project matters—its importance, impact, and potential benefits. It
highlights who will benefit from the project and how it will make a positive difference. Think of
it as answering the question: "So what? Why should anyone care about this project?"
Key Points to Include
Who benefits? (e.g., businesses, consumers, students, researchers, institutions)
What problems does it solve?
How does it add value? (e.g., saves time, reduces costs, improves accuracy, enhances
efficiency)
Example (Library Management System)
This study is significant because it aims to improve library operations by automating book
management, reducing manual errors, and saving time. It will benefit librarians through efficient
record-keeping, students by making it easier to find and borrow books, and institutions by
enhancing resource management.
1.10 Justification of the Study
This section explains the reasons behind choosing the project. It focuses on the "Why this
project?" aspect, making a case for why the project is necessary and worth the time, effort, and
resources.
While the significance focuses on the benefits, the justification focuses on the need.
Key Points to Include
Existing gaps or problems with current systems or methods.
Evidence of the need for a new or improved system (e.g., inefficiency in manual systems,
data inaccuracies, time wastage).
How the project will address these issues.
Example (Library Management System)
The study is justified because many libraries still rely on outdated manual systems, which are
prone to errors and inefficiencies. An automated Library Management System will streamline
processes, ensure accurate tracking of books, and improve the overall user experience.

ANALYSIS SECTION
3.6 Feasibility Studies
Feasibility studies are conducted to evaluate the viability of a system. The primary types of
feasibility studies are:
Legal Feasibility
Ensures that all legal and ethical requirements are observed during the development of
the system.
Guarantees compliance with regulations and considers any potential legal implications.
Evaluates the ethical implications of data collection from the participating population.
Economic Feasibility
Involves a cost/benefit analysis of the project.
Helps organizations determine the financial viability of the project.
Assesses the potential costs and benefits to ensure that financial resources are allocated
effectively.
Technical Feasibility
Assesses whether the technological resources available are sufficient to undertake the
project.
Evaluates the technical requirements and ensures that the system can be developed with
the existing infrastructure.
Considers the technological processes and procedures required for the successful
implementation of the project.
Chapter Four: System Analysis and Design
This chapter focuses on how the system was analyzed, designed, and structured to meet the
objectives outlined in Chapter One.
4.1 Introduction
Provides an overview of what system analysis and design entail. It describes the process of
breaking down the problem, identifying system requirements, and planning the architecture of
the solution.
4.2 Requirements Analysis
Details the features and capabilities the system needs to function effectively.
4.2.1 Functional Requirements
Describes what the system should do, like allowing user registration, login, data storage, price
prediction, and account management.
(Have them in a numbered list)
4.2.2 Non-Functional Requirements:
Specifies system qualities like security, ease of use, reliability, performance, and portability.
(Have them in a numbered list)
4.3 Data Analysis
Discusses how data was collected, cleaned, and analyzed to identify patterns and trends that
support price prediction. It includes data preprocessing and exploratory data analysis (EDA).
(For example, you can have pie charts, etc.)
4.4 Unified Modeling Language (UML) Diagrams
Examples
4.4.1 Use Case Analysis
Illustrates how different users (e.g., consumers, administrators) interact with the system. This
section often includes use case diagrams that map user actions and system responses.
4.4.2 Data Flow Diagram (DFD)
Shows how data moves through the system—from user input to data processing, model
prediction, and output display. It helps visualize the flow of information within the system.
4.4.3 Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)
It depicts the database structure, showing how different data entities (like users, laptop
specifications, and predictions) are related. This helps in designing an efficient database schema.
4.4.4
etc
4.5 System Design
Describes the system's architecture, interface, and components.
Examples
4.5.1 Sign Up Page
Allows new users to create accounts.
4.5.2 Dashboard
etc
