patients who are supposed to visit the centres at regular intervals.
Researchers, who are interested in diabetes, consider the diabetes centres as a valuable
source of information for their researches. However, diabetes centres, uses manual paperbased archiving for diabetic patient visits that makes the data subject to loss and the
accessibility for the data is low.
The· system is built using Object Oriented Approach; Component roles within the system
are clearly defined within a N-tier framework, The term N-Tier refers to the various
levels of responsibility in a. system's desigri. The Nin N-tier can be any number from 2
on up.
A very common design is the 3-Tier model, In the 3-tier model the application is divided
into 3 distinct tiers of responsibility, the user interface, the business logic, and the
database.
Each of these tiers can be implemented using one or more objects that are dedicated to
the responsibilities of that tier.
• Presentation tier: This is the topmost level of the application. The presentation
tier displays information related to such services. It communicates with other tiers
by outputting results to the screens · ·
• Business Logic/Logic Tier: It controls an application's functionality by
performing detailed processing
. • Database tier: contains both Database management system and Data sets.
Information is stored and retrieved. This tier keeps data neutral and independent from
application servers or business logic.
In this project, the project team is trying to solve this problem by building a system to
computerize the archiving of diabetic patients visits using windows application. In
addition to the archiving, the system provides data visualization tools which can be used
by researchers. One more feature that the system provides is the reminding service; which
reminds the patient about the next scheduled visit to the centre usmg emails and SMS.
Future Work
• Build a web interface to enable the patient to enter/view his tests by himself.
