ABSTRACT
The student information management system is the typical information management system (MIS); its development mainly includes the establishment and the maintenance of the backstage database as well as the development of the front application procedure. The former one requires establishing the data to be of uniformity, integrity and security. While the latter one request the application procedure to have the characteristics such as being complete in its function and easy to use.
This system mainly finishes the task of managing the students’ archives and results. Its functions chiefly include adding, deleting, inquiring and modifying the students’ information. Besides, the functions of managing of the users’ ID and modifying password are also included.
The system applies the tool software powerbuilder 9.0 to develop the three basic modules including system management, data treatment and information inquiry. On the basis of mastering the application of the software, it is designed through the thoughts of system need analysis, system function design, system implementation, system operation and its maintenance. On the basis of the need analysis of the students’ information, it designs the relatively complete system function module chart, system business flow chart and students’ information treatment flow chart; on the basis of need analysis, it designs the E-R chart and data blank which can satisfy users’ various need. The designs of this system make full use of the strong function of the powerbuiler 9.0 system window, and improve the operation efficiency and readability.
