Senior Project - SyFToR

As a firm providing consulting to a large number of companies, an important aspect of the operation of Andersen Consulting is the management of employee information. This information includes employee biographical data, data on employee's education and training, and the various skills and interests each employee possesses. This is currently done through the use of several independent systems, each handling some aspect of employee information. The goal of the project was to investigate new technologies to enhance the overall effectiveness and quality of Andersen's Human Resource Systems. The student project used an object-oriented design and implementation to develop an interactive, graphical interface and database to allow the addition, deletion, retrieval, and update of employee data, for use by Andersen's administrative and practice personnel. This software was implemented in the C++ programming language, using an X Window System user interface toolkit running on a network of UNIX workstations and PCs.
