16. Review of Related Systems
The application of modern
information technology dominated
so far by the use of Internet
websites and online reservation
systems, gives competitive
advantage to other with same
establishment. However, the
potential competitive advantage
can be transformed into real
advantage if only the websites
17. As a result, the advocator
conducted research on the facts
related to the system that might be
helpful to its development.
An Online clinic reservation
systems make customers’ lives
easier. The use of online services
nowadays becomes more
necessary in the various fields
18. It is because of the advantage and
useful effects to many people when
it comes to online reservation
because our society is facing rapid
growths of need, availability and
development of different
commercial web-based application.
Mr. Frank Bodhi of Health Centre
says so simple to setup the system
has been so simple to setup and
create.
19. My business is new providing the
tools to look and be professional to
my clients. It was proven that
online reservation system make a
big convenient to all in need. The
development of Online clinic
reservation system has a wide use,
can make a scheduled time for the
patient in need. It has updated
information like doctors in charge,
time of checkups and history of the
patient viewed only by the user.
21. Illustrates the classic life cycle
paradigm for software engineering
sometimes called the "waterfall
model“ the life cycle paradigm
demands a systematic, sequential
approach to software development
that begins at the system level and
progresses through analysis,
design, coding, testing, and
maintenance. Modeled after the
conventional engineering cycle, the
life cycle paradigm encompasses
the following activities:
22. System engineering and analysis,
because software is always part of a
larger system, work begins by
establishing requirements for all
system elements and then allocating
some subset of these requirements to
software. This system view is essential
when software must interface with
other elements such as hardware,
people, and data bases. System
engineering and analysis encompass
requirements gathering at the system
level with a small amount of top-level
design and analysis.
23. Description of the Existing
System
The clinic uses a traditional manual
file processing, which is too time
consuming.
Appointments are being set based on
the doctor’s available time prior to
patients’ visit on clinic. Therefore,
patients are not assured if their
preferred schedule is still available.
The clinic staff will handle patients’ on
their visit and they will be given a stab
which has the priority number of their
24. The patient will wait on his priority
number to be called. If he is
unattended (e.g. he went outside
because he assumed that other
appointments will last long and
therefore he will wait too much), his
number will be passed by and he
needs to wait another available
time for him to be entertained.

27. Description of the Proposed
System
The proposed system which is
Online Clinic Reservation System
will provide ease on patients’
information maintenance. It
provides a web application which
has scheduler to automate the
appointment reservation process.
28. If the reserved patient was unable
to confirm his appointment within
the time based on the clinic’s
policy, the clinic staff will be the
one responsible for the adjustment
of schedule. He could serve walk-in
patients prior to the number of
canceled appointments.
