dc.description.abstract | This report represents an online sharing community mainly
developed for the parliament and people of Uganda. The
information sharing community system gave an integrated view
of different registered groups and people. The current systems
used are manual where information is kept while others the
discussion forum is disabled. The project was an important
area for development because of the efficiency, reliability
and security of the procedures within and outside the
parliament.
The aim of this project was to develop an online information
sharing community with which users can participate after
registration using their accounts and can interact with their
respective members of the parliament library. This online
community comes as a solution to a widening gap in
communication and interaction among parliamentarians and the
public that has continued to exit partially due to lack of
proper and cheap means of communication and interaction.
The outcome of the project was an integrated system capable of
online registration, downloading publications like books
uploaded by the administrator, discussion forum, and people
can comment on different posts. The system can provide timely
access to information | en_US |
