This is the entire view of the NPL Company in which we had designed a network. As in this building each floor have connection among themselves, for the connectivity of the floor to floor connection we require one more switch so that each floor is connected to each other. That main switch is attached to the proxy server that will also acts like a firewall and other  side we have VPN server that will enable to establish the connection among other branches in Malaysia. The wired router is connected to the switch and with the internet so that throughout the  building we can establish or provide the internet required we can enable or disable the internet connection where it is not required using proxy server.

Selecting the programming language

Co mpany is currently using COBOL and FORTRAN but Currently the Netvalue Public Limited Company they were facing some problems prob lems like: y

Difficult Difficult to maintain maintain

y

limited in its ability to do mathematical functions

y

Slow in processing

y

A dying obsolescent language.

y

Sometimes shows error while executing

y

Incompatible

with other software and operating system

 Now we decided to implement the Visual Basic as a programming language for development of custom software for the company. Visual

Basic:

Visual Basic is the third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment from Microsoft for its COM programming model. VB is also considered a relatively easy to learn and use programming language, because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. Visual Basic was derived from BASIC and enables the rapid application development

of 

applications, access to databases using Data Access Objects, Remote Data Objects, or ActiveX Data Objects, and creation of ActiveX controls and objects. Scripting languages such as VBA and VBScript are syntactically syntactically similar to Visual Basic, but perform differently. differently.

Programming Language Translator:

The interpreter, we are using here is in visual basic which translates source code to machine code. Interpreter in visual basic translates one code at a time; it reads one source code statement in custom software and immediately translates the entries followed by executing invoices before the next one is processed. Main function function of interpreter is to read all the statements and program run on virtual machine ; it translates the binary code which is nor read neither complied during execution of program only the syntactical error will be shown , were logical errors are found in visual basic basic while while running the program which will

be very helpful for the company

  programmers to detect and debug the errors because of its flexible and immediate execution followed by evaluation of interpreter in visual basic makes the custom software to run faster  which in turns leads to quick q uick processing and updating details deta ils of the company.

Consumes less than one-third of power 

y

It

produces high quality image

y

It

also occupies less space

y

It

produces less radiation

Though in an organization number of LCD¶s are used and as TFT-LCD consumes less power, which in turns help organization org anization to reduce their expenses in the area co nsumed. Microphones:

Since it is an organization group meetings are held in the conference hall, we

  preferred to use microphones for meetings we can produce speech loudly and clearly as well. Microphones are very important for the conference room so that people listening to speech can hear the words wo rds clearly. Projector: We preferred to use liquid crystal display projector. It is a standard with poly silicon

which offers a higher quali qua lity ty than other ot her projector with light weight

It

y

It

offers a bright and a sharp picture with vibrant rich colors

y

Uses very less power but displays high level contrast and brightness

y

Uses very less power but high projecting. pro jecting.
