Internet
The Internet is the most fundamental aspect of our application and without the internet our application would be useless. Since our application is a mobile based application it relies on the internet to store and transmit data from many different aspects of the application. The internet is intertwined with every part of the application and is the core to its success.
Server
The server is another key component to for our application because this is where the majority of our information will be stored. Any information and data that is transmitted through our application will be saved onto our server and will be distributed properly. This is a key role in how data will be transmitted throughout different aspects of the application.
GPS Satellite
The GPS Satellite is another key component and a unique feature that our application offers. With the GPS feature the driver can locate the user and know their exact location for pick up. From the users standpoint he or she can locate the closest cab to their location and request for that cab to pick them up.
· Connected to the internet so that data can be stored and distributed (local data)
· Connected to the user application to find the closest taxi and so driver can located customer
· Connected to the taxi so the user can find the closet taxi and so the driver has directions (if needed) to the customers desired location
User Application
The user application is the foundation for our application, because it is the physical application itself. The application offers many different uses for the user as well as the driver of the taxi. One of the most important features is that the user has the ability to call the closest taxi to their location. The user can also enter their location and even pay for the cab before they are even physically in the taxi. There are many different uses for the application as outlined in the vision statement as well as the mock ups so I will not go into full detail.
Manager’s Computer
The manager’s computer is where the manager in the office is watching and controlling the whole fleet of taxis that are on the road. Here he is able to see the exact location of each cab, as well as communicate with the drive via the on-board operating system.
Taxi
The taxi is what will be taking our customers from location A to location B. This is the main focus of our customers and obviously serves a very key role in our system.
Taxi Operating System
The taxi operating system is how the driver will receive information form the customer and manager. It is located inside of the taxi itself and is in the center console.
Application User
This is the user of our application and will be the one actually using our application. All of the features of our application are explained in the vision statement as well as the mock up list.

- Connected to server which connects and flow’s data from the taxi operating system, manager’s computer, user application, and the GPS satellite.
- Connected to the manager’s computer to store and transmit data from the user application and to also store and transmit data from the taxi operating system.
- Connected to the user application for the storage and distribution of user information directly from the user.
- Connected to the GPS Satellite
Server
The server is another key component to for our application because this is where the majority of our information will be stored. Any information and data that is transmitted through our application will be saved onto our server and will be distributed properly. This is a key role in how data will be transmitted throughout different aspects of the application.
- Connected to the internet to transmit data from multiple aspects of the application
- Connected to the taxi operating system the server stores and transmits relative data (data necessary for the driver only) for daily operational tasks
- The server also stores all the data from the manager’s computer and can easily be distributed or accessed when needed
- Connected to the user application to save all of the user’s personal information that they enter and also stores data and distributes this data to the taxi driver (information that is need for location, payment, etc…)
GPS Satellite
The GPS Satellite is another key component and a unique feature that our application offers. With the GPS feature the driver can locate the user and know their exact location for pick up. From the users standpoint he or she can locate the closest cab to their location and request for that cab to pick them up.

- Connected to the internet to store and distribute data and information from the user of the application
- Connected to the GPS Satellite for local data distribution
- Connected to the user to be a medium for all the information the user has and would like to relay to the driver
Manager’s Computer
The manager’s computer is where the manager in the office is watching and controlling the whole fleet of taxis that are on the road. Here he is able to see the exact location of each cab, as well as communicate with the drive via the on-board operating system.
- Connected to the internet to store data and information from the application and taxi operating system
- Connected to the inside of the taxi operating system for communication with the driver and to locate where each cab physically is
Taxi
The taxi is what will be taking our customers from location A to location B. This is the main focus of our customers and obviously serves a very key role in our system.
- Connected to the GPS Satellite to transmit location data to the user’s application as well as to the manager’s computer.
- Connected to the taxi’s operating system which allows the driver to communicate with the manager and or the customer… also allows for a fully active GPS System used to locate the customer and for directions (if needed)
Taxi Operating System
The taxi operating system is how the driver will receive information form the customer and manager. It is located inside of the taxi itself and is in the center console.
- Connected to the server to store and transmit relevant data from the user application (only necessary information from the user)
- Connected to the manager’s computer to communicate with the manager
Application User
This is the user of our application and will be the one actually using our application. All of the features of our application are explained in the vision statement as well as the mock up list.
- Connected to the application via cell phone
- Stores relevant information on the application
- Can also customize the application to his or her preferences

- Server Size: For each company that uses our application, we would need a seperate serve, to keep all the information for each specific company in order. So depending on how large the company size, we would need around 50 gb of physical server storage, and any additional information will be stored at the companies expense.
