4. What is e-Restaurant
• It is a sоftwarе systеm that simрlifies оrdеring
within a traditiоnal rеstaurant.
• This system helps restaurant personnel
coordinate their activities and improve their
services, and for the management to track

• A standalone software with different modules
handles the staff activities

their order list to responsible staff member for
approval
• Staff member can accept or delete request found
in request list module.

10. Development Process
Phases of our project

11. Requirements gathering techniques
TeamMeetings
1. Brainstorming on first meeting
2. Visited a couple of local
restaurants to discuss face to
face about systems inovation and
actual system problems

12. Proposed technology
• We have choosen .NET as main development platform using SQL Server 2012 for
database backend,C# for the standalone modules and ASP.Net for the
webservice.
• Android Studio and SQLite used to create Android Application
• Why .NET?
1. Best performance
2. Easy developement process
3. Better support for the future
UI technology
• Team decided to implement from scratch in order to yield a
fresh,stylish and user friendly interface

13. System Requirements
• Hardware Requirements
1. 512 MB Ram
2. At Least 2 GB Hardisk free space
3. Pentium Processor or later
4. Internet Adapter (LAN or WLAN)
• Software Requirements
• SQL Server 2012 Express Edition
• Windows 7 or Higher
• Framework 2.0

14. Functionalities

is designed based on general requirements gained
from interview with stakeholders.
• Mobile application communication with standalone
desktop software using RESTful architecture with
JSON as median.
• Model View ViewModel (MVVM) Pattern
• Allow to develop (UI) with clear seperation of UI
components and presantation logic.

16. Communication Architecture
The main goal is to provide the e-Restaurant as a service accessible inside
restaurant’s network as well as outside.

17. Graphical User Interface
• There are a lot of views: Admin view, Waiter
view, Chef view and Customer View.
• User interface is designed in such way that it can
be easy for touch screen display.
• Everybody can easily get used to in within a few
minutes
• Each view is selected by the system after logging
in and checking the type of user.

18. Conclusion and Summary
