Description

The potential requirement of using data reduction application as an assistive tool for the student and researchers has been designed, developed and deployed. For that, numerous researches have been carried for this project. During the process, several modifications on architectural design, development and implemention have been done. The idea of further advancement of this application to the further development has been explored. Primarily, open source software for data reductions have been developed to suit the needs of the data analysis enthusiastic. Requirement for the project were drawn upon a thematic analysis carried on the data collected via the statement of arts and supervisors. Six evaluation sessions were carried out with various sectors of data reduction techniques to establish the acceptance, suitability, usefulness and efficiency of the product. The results were outstanding and indicate strong prospects of the product for the targeted arena.
