me: basis matlab....

X: i mean like wat wud u tell someone if u have to assign him some work like wud u just say make a sw model for me

me: yes... u can say that make a design/umls/model for the project.

X: hmm i wanted a more formal language u know kind of lets say u are explaining you work to your employer so that it adds weight to ur skills :D

me: Ok. In that fashion i would say : Developed a software model and design for the Railway Management system as a part of the term project

X: hmm gud but not gud enough i need to go into more details and somehow i am out of words actually i have to send in my CV to unis u know apart from the SOP. so i have to give a liitle detail abt it :)

me: hmm, So tell it this way : Developed the design and model of Indian Railway Ticket Reservation software system which automates ticket reservations and bla bla.

X: wahin na that bla bla will add weight else toh u also know ki the project didnt have much weight :D...  ny ideas?how to make it look good?

me: umm ..... The software system does intelligent reservation while taking the passenger physical condition and preferences into consideration

X: hmm now we are getting somewhere :)

me: along with adequate scalability features to incorporate quotas and new schemes like Tatkal

X: ya thats cool..also cancellation or just checking train info and obviously booking also spl discounts are available to senior citizens,doctors, and students

me: yea

X: i think i am done with it let me just reframe it and i will show u the final piece :)

Developed the design and model of Indian Railway Ticket Reservation software system which automates ticket reservations. The software system does intelligent reservation while taking the passenger physical condition and preferences into consideration along with adequate scalability features to incorporate quotas and new schemes like Tatkal, E-Ticketing and I-Ticketing. It gives the passenger the flexibility of not only booking or cancellation of ticket but also the ability to check information about any train.

me: perfect :)

X: ok can i ask for a little more help

me: yea yea, y soo formal

X: 2 more questions first the practical utility of the project i mean how did it help in developing one's ability second a short summary of the subject under which the project comes in short a gist abt sw engg

me: it helped in dev ur ability by helping u apply formal sw engg tools nd tech. to practical problems.  

X: hmm that is gud point

me: It also helped you to understand professional software development giving you first hand experience on how to make a reliable, efficient, scalable, robust and maintainable softeare system

X: waah lovely

me: thank you :)

X: i guess it is fair enough to say that u deserve getting a call from gsoc each year u know how to play with words :)

me: hehe, yea thats why i love writing blog too :P

X: ya i can see that now
