What should be the contents of Synopsis?
The content should be as detailed (60-80 pages in A4 sized paper) as is sufficient enough to
explain the objective and implementation of the project that the candidate has gone to take up.
The write up must adhere to the guidelines and should include the following:
1. Introduction, Objective & Scope
This should give a clear picture of the project. Objective should be clearly specified.
What the project ends up to and in what way this is going to help the end user has been
mentioned.
2. Review of Literature
The literature review is a written overview of major writings and other sources on a
selected topic. Sources covered in the review may include scholarly journal articles,
books, government reports, Web sites, etc. The literature review provides a description,
summary and evaluation of each source.
3. Materials & Methods to be used (Technical Details)
3.1. Project Category
(RDBMS/OOPS/Networking/Multimedia/Artificial Intelligence/Expert Systems etc.).
3.2. Techniques being Used
In this section techniques required to implement the task are to be described in brief.
3.3. Parallel Techniques Available
3.1.1.
3.1.2.
3.1.3.
Here, those techniques which have played a significant role in previously developed
similar approaches are to be mentioned.
3.4. Hardware and Software Resource Requirements and their Specifications
The requirement of the resources for designing and developing the proposed system
must be given. The resources might be in form of the Tools / Platform, hardware /
software or the data from the industry.
4. Proposed Methodology
4.1. Proposed Algorithm
The process of the whole software system proposed, being developed, should be
mentioned in detail.
4.2. System Architecture, Flow Chart, State transition Diagram, Data Flow Diagram
This may be supported by DFD’s / Flowcharts to explain the flow of the information
and ER diagram for process description.
5. Testing Technologies and Security Mechanisms
What are the testing types, strategies, approaches and security mechanisms to be
used to accomplish the task are to taken here.
