Abstract:
For smaller trade publishers, Lack of resources & overabundance influx of unsolicited submissions means they tend to be disorganized and late behind schedule. As a result, publishers could miss out on some quality materials. This research aims to solve those problems by implementing a management system. An array of front-end tools and backend in the form of sql database are used in the development. The system is done on a web-based platform and will handle the problem stated by delving into status-based categorization where each manuscript will be classified according to its state of status. These statuses are determined by a chain of subsequent validations. Scheduling itself is flexible and can even concur at the same time for manuscripts. The production processes are examined with a progress bar and with the addition of notification system will assure data passing is contained and could stay on schedule. Unit & Integration testing are conducted to confirm the system meets the conditions specified.
