Design And Implementation Of A Online Voting System

With the rapid development of the global Internet and the popularity of computerapplications, especially the broad coverage of the wireless network and the explosivegrowth of the wireless network terminal equipment in recent years, people can easilyaccess to the network, get the latest information, participate in the network and interactwith others online.In order to understand people’s needs and opinions timely, to grasp theconcern of the people recently, government agencies, major portals and other units willrelease some hot issues to their websites in the form of the topic voting for people to voteonline. Therefore, the online voting system came into being.It studies the design and implementation of an online voting system. First of all,combined with the practical application and development, we make a detailed requirementanalysis.Then we also give the the structure of the system and analysis of the variousfunctional modules. Through the detailed design of the structure and the database tables,we eventually build a Web-based online voting system which based on Struts2framework,MySQL background database and integrated management of administrator login, thevoting topic setting management, topics library generating management, online Internetvoting, voting results management.In the realization process, we use the Java development technology, Struts2framework, JSP etc which reflect the MVC structure design ideas. We also use thedatabase connection technology and use the MySQL as the background database. UsingDreamweaver and other development tools leads to a good page design. Particularly, theimplementation process of the business logic control and interceptors is the key.It systematically expounded the requirement analysis, design and implementationprocess of a Web-based online voting system and introduced the relevant theoreticalknowledge. Finally, we make a comprehensive functional testing for the system andsummarize the advantages and inadequacies of the system, suggest a few improvementsand system prospects.
