Hi..
I am a new joinee to this foram.I need to submit a case study in UNIX .Please help me to submit the case study by giving your valuable ideas.It will be very helpful for me.

Topic: Unix File Management

A university wants to computerize its Library operations because of increasing volumes of books and number of users.

• The library has various category of users, such as library staff, teachers, and students.
• It has stock of books, journals and magazines. They are planning to add other items to the library such as software floppies, tapes and CD.
• They would like to generate information about books available based on the book-id or title.
• A users’ list is to be maintained and updated from time to time.
• The operations such as issues and returns have to be taken care of the system.
• The system should also enable the library staff to issue reminders and follow them up suitably.
• It should also be possible to handle exceptional cases such as lost books or retrieval of the books which were supposed to have been lost.

As long as I am aware homework can not be posted in this forum. Please see http://www.unix.com/misc.php?do=cfrules
