Final Year Project - Introduction

Welcome to my final year project blog!

In this blog I will be showing:

  • Timescale of progression
  • Log of the research found
  • Establishing how the project timescale is working in real time


The day I will be updating my blog will be every Friday in which I will be showing:
  • Some of the foundings inrelation to that section of the report
  • How the current progression is going for that part
  • How I am meeting to the objective timeline and what alterations I have had to make.

What is the project about?


This project is going to be showing how the networking architecture possibilities that can be implemented into Darlington Borough Councils Library facilities and how they will run during operational hours.

I will be splitting this project into sections such as:
  • Analysis
  • Design
  • Implementation
  • Testing

Allowing this will make sure I meet all of the requirements of this project.


Whilst creating this report, I will be implementing an Service Level Agreement based on the library. This is important to understand what IT services can bring and what impact they can have.

At this moment of time I'm keeping an steady progress with my report. I'm currently working through my analysis section of: Risk Assessment. For this I will be creating tables in relation to hardware and software, categorizing the risk it can bring to the company and what the potensial solutions for this can be.  - Personally I feel like I may come back to this in case more information comes to mind for this section. Knowing that inserting multiple solutions is effective as it allows more thought and considerations into a potential risk. Shown above is one of the templates that I will be using to reference the type of impact it can bring to the company. This template will allow me to analyze: Hardware Software Other I will be updating my blog once this is complete with little sections to add throughout analysis before I start my design stage

Due to my project being based on the library facilities, I went down to Crown Street library to recieve more information about the library. Some Basic information is available on the council website When I went to the library, I spoke to Katherine Williamson to find out more information of the buildings architecture. In this I was shown archives of the building structure of both libraries in Cockerton & Darlington During this I obtained photos of the opening hours of the library so I knew the type of operational hours to be implemented into my report. I bought a copy of each building to be shown into my report. During this process I had to sign a Copying of Copyright Material. Once this process was done. I looked around the library facilities understand the type of computers they are using to give me a rough assumption of how it's functioned  From this I was able to find out > Majority of the Computers were running XP/Windows 7 ...
