Developing Mobile E-Groceries Model

Developing Mobile E-Groceries Model

Abstract— In a traditional groceries market, various business models have been implemented. Most of these models failed due to e-grocery retailing process. This has led to many inefficient operation of the groceries market in many parts of the world. Previous studies have shown the application and success of e-Groceries system in a web based scheme. This paper tries to develop a prototype for e-Groceries system on android platform suitable for most mobile devices. The system’s objective includes introducing a new way of grocery shopping especially for Malaysians. The development of the system follows the generic software development process. Thus we provide a detailed system development and its implementation. During implementation we call the system as MyMart e-Groceries system. Users can select various types of groceries in a simple and friendly mobile user interface and pay for the selected choice, which will be subsequently delivered to their door steps.

INTRODUCTION

Online shopping provides an easier means of purchasing product and gets them through physical delivery. Current local online shopping in Malaysia involves both product and services. They are mostly seen in a hotel business, flight ticket, apparel, take-out food and many more. There are much skepticism on ordering groceries online. This has to do with its value and price. Groceries belong to the categories of essential commodities product. Groceries are normally found in store or it can be described as a retail store that sells mostly food and other essential food items. These are mostly found in a cities ranging from large grocery stores, medium grocery stores to small groceries. The only thing that is common to them is the food stock products that they provide with other product other than food, such as clothing or household items. In most cases they are called supermarkets. They mostly comprise of several stock items. Their target is to provide the most essential product that are needed by people on day-to-day activities. Some of this store also includes a pharmacy and an electronics section. Other grocery stores, especially the large ones, are centerpieces of a larger complex that includes other facilities, such as gas stations, which will often operate under the store's name. This setup is especially common in the United Kingdom, with major chains such as Tesco and Sainsbury's having many locations operating under this format. The impact of intercultural competence on reliability on service quality and customer satisfaction in grocery retail industry in Malaysia has been discussed in Ihtiyar et al. [1]. This has to do with dissatisfaction on face-to-face groceries retails. There are many issues involves. Mobile device provide an opportunity of transaction between customers and the producers. Introducing grocery shopping system on mobile platform would make the market flexible and enhance the mobile services. A preliminary interview performed in this study suggests that local Malaysian citizens like groceries shopping and it was found that 69 percent of the locals go shopping for groceries at least once a week. While the remaining 29 percent prefer to go shopping at the markets close to their homes and very few prefer to go shopping at malls for a more variety of goods. When it comes to groceries business, both the customers and the business owners are cautious of their transactions, the fact still remains considering the prices and varieties. On the other hand, intervention promoted intentions and actual purchasing of sustainable groceries [2]. In order to ensure the sustainability of mobile groceries business, a lot of business standard has to be in place, because grocery business competition arises naturally due to high travel costs and the perishable nature of groceries appears to impart horizontal differentiation between firms [3]. Considering the issues and challenges of groceries business, this research is aimed to tackle the groceries purchasing process. This research introduces a mobile grocery shopping system targeting Malaysians within metropolitan Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia in order to provide easier means of buying and selling of groceries by Malaysians. The systems will run on mobile platform in order to enhance the flexibility of the business. Among some previous system is the one propose by Joo et al. [4] which is agent based system. The agents gather grocery information from several store server agents and compare it with user's preferences of groceries and stores. The rest of this paper is organized as follows: section 2 provides a review of literature and background of the related work on groceries and groceries businesses. Section 3describes the proposed system development process in detail. It also discusses the generic software development process and how it applies to the proposed system. Section 4 provides the result of the work, finally section 5 presents the conclusion. 

ANALYSIS AND DESIGN

A.Requirement analysis Requirement analysis of the entire tools, features, software and hardware were undertaken at this step. The software required for the development of the proposed system are Java for Android application, with Eclipse IDE, Google APP inventor, and other API libraries. For the development of the web based system, MySQL and XAMPP is used. Additional software used for the completion of the development includes photo and image editing tools. The major feature of the system dwells on the benefit for both customer and retailer; the key feature is aimed at reducing transaction time between the customers and the retailers, in terms of purchasing groceries. This will ensure speedy business and enable customers to have more leisure time by minimizing the time they require to shop for groceries. This is expected to be achieved through the interface and interaction design. B.Use case analysis Extreme programming suggests that the development begins with planning of the project management; followed by the planning of the design phase, which might includes the pilot testing or simulation of the system development prior to real development and the creation of system images and icons. The coding phase is the actual system development where the design. Figure 1 below shows the administrator’s use case diagram. This is normally the case when it comes to generic software development process. The uses case of the system is intended to show the flow from administrator to the users. The administrator uses case provide a direct interaction with login page, viewing users personal information, updating inventories and promotions, viewing order details and a login out page. Figure 1: Use Case diagram of administrator system Figure 2 shows is the Use Case diagram of user or client. In this diagram the customer can register, login to the application, view the inventory in the application, view promotion, update information, make purchases of the product they want and clear his/his cart. The users registered in the system, will be tracked and their can update their personal information as time goes on. 3131

Figure 2: Use Case diagram of user system C.Business logic analysis The business logic provides the ease at which data flows throughout the system. This is explained in the class diagram presented in Figure 3. The database design portrays how the database would interact throughout the flow of request and response. When customers purchased products, the order will be stored in the order table. Order table is related to the order item table which consists of order id, product id and quantity. Order and order item tables will contribute to the purchase history which is receipt table. Product table gives the customer the information of product id, name, price, code and category so it will be easy for them to make purchase. There are five tables in the whole system. There are the databases used in the application. When customers registered, the data will be saved on the customer table. Order table contains order information from the customers. Order item table stores data for quantity purchased by the customers. When the transaction has been done, all the history of purchased products will be stored in the receipt table also with the delivery date. Product table stores the information of products in the inventory. When users log in they will use the system to browse or purchase items. Once a purchase has been made, the system will then forward the purchase details to the merchant. The merchant will then give out the orders to the delivery department and the items purchased will directly sent to the user registered address.

Iot Based Garbage Monıtorıng and Clearance Alert System

Iot Based Garbage Monıtorıng and Clearance Alert System

The Internet of Things has become the hottest invention of the time. IoT is nothing but a technology in which all of the physical devices are connected to each other by mainly a wireless network connection without a minimum of human involvement in order to maintain a clean environment. Garbage monitoring system using IoT can decrease a large amount of human labour required for garbage monitoring in different area. In some areas where the population is less the garbage storage is also less but in places where there is more number of habitants the garbage is generally more. If the garbage collector truck can able to keep a online tracking of where the garbage is required immediate clearance then it will follow the route where the truck is first required to clean the garbage, without on spot monitoring To avoid unhygienic consequences the smart bin containing garbage for more than two days will be able to send immediate alerts. By 2030 the many parts of the universe will get developed as well as more populated as a result of which the garbage amount will also increase. So to overcome this problem the implementation of this paper may be useful. This paper also proposes the route tracking system which will provide the route the truck will follow while collecting the garbage and visit the bins which is more filled. As a result of which it does not have to travel all bins and petrol or diesel will be saved . II.RELATED WORKSAttributable to a change in perspective toward Internet of Things (IoT), inquires about into IoT administrations have been directed in an extensive variety of fields. As a noteworthy application field of IoT, squander administration has turned out to be one such issue. The nonappearance of proficient waste administration has caused genuine ecological issues and cost issues. In this way, in this paper, an IoT-based shrewd junk framework (SGS) is proposed to decrease the measure of nourishment squander. In a SGS, battery-based shrewd rubbish canisters (SGBs) trade data with each other utilizing remote work systems, and a switch and server gather and break down the data for benefit provisioning. Moreover, the SGS incorporates different IoT systems thinking about client comfort and expands the battery lifetime through two sorts of vitality effective activities of the SGBs: remain solitary task and collaboration based activity.

Smart Garbage Monitoring and Clearance System using Internet of Things

SmartGarbage Monitoring and Clearance System using Internet of Things 

Abstract— The increase in population, has led to tremendous degradation in the state of affairs of hygiene with respect to waste management system. The spillover of waste in civic areas generates the polluted condition in the neighboring areas. It may aggravate numerous severe diseases for the nearby people. This will humiliate the appraisal of the affected area. For eliminating or mitigating the garbage’s and maintains the cleanness, it requires ‘smartness based waste management system. This paper is proposed IOT based smart waste clean management system which checks the waste level over the dustbins by using Sensor systems. Once it detected immediately this system altered to concern authorized through GSM/GPRS. Click Here For this system used Microcontroller as an interface between the sensor system and GSM/GPRS system. To monitor and integrate an android application is developed for the desired information which is related to the various level of waste in different locations. This is ensued the greenish in the environment and support for swachh bharat for cleanness. Index Terms— Garbage, Microcontroller, GSM/GPRS.

LITERATURE SURVEY 

The literature surveyed some different papers to get information about the existing work which have been done SauroLonghi, DavideMarzioni, EmanueleAlidor, Gianluca Di Bu` o, Mario Prist, Massimo Grisostomi and MatteoPirro[2] proposed, garbage collector supported by using sensor motes which is providing information and status about the bin and also sending the retrieved data through DTN (Data Transfer Nodes). 

This bin has a custom prototype instead of basic installation of sensor nodes. The whole system is designed for allowing heterogeneous sensor for communication. A wireless sensor network is helped for controlling bin by gathering data from motes. The limitation here is that the information about the bin is not directly transferred to the server or to the client; it needs to be sent through the Data Transfer Nodes [1]. 

ShubhamThakker, R.Narayanamoorthi, in this paper [3], using the Near Infrared Reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy we can identify the type of plastic. The alienated dissipate equipment from MSW (municipal solid waste) can be place in a needy area. By Using an dissenter materials which can be mix into a uniform material. The entire process is repeated every hour.. The fermentation mechanism took place in a sealed atmosphere, where bacteria converted into undividable enzymes which results in biogas [2] Andrei Borozdukhin, Olga Dolinina and Vitaly Pechenkin, [4] this proposed system consists of two parts: software and special signaling equipment. 

The equipment is placed on the side walls of the bin which consists of two parts: one is the receiver-transmitter and sensor. Sensor is used to indicate the level of the bin which is connected to the transmitter that transmits a signal of fullness of the bin to the receiver at the server host. A manager is appointed at the server side whose job is to find the shortest route and intimate it to the truck driver to collect it in a short interval of time [3]. 

Thompson A.F, Afolayan A.H, Ibidunmoye E.O projected work about the internet-based platform for the organization and monitoring of waste collection, discarding and carrying etc. This is comprised of the client, server and storage. The client is the device which can access the pages and forms used by web application e.g. PDAs, phones, laptops etc. the desktop is a program that launches the application and makes it performs over the internet. In this, the back-end system is the web server and database management system that supervise the data used by the function to monitor the movement of data between user and system. The limitation of this paper is that it only shows the location of the bin in the web page[4].
