Process Summary © 2018 Ellucian 13 About Jasper Reports © 2018 Ellucian 14 About Jasper Reports • Jasper Reports defines a report with an XML file. • Regardless of which language is used for expressions inside the jrxml • Jasper Reports creates a special Java class that represents the whole report. The report is then compiled, instanced, and serialized in a jasper file, ready for loading at any time. © 2018 Ellucian 15 Server Architecture © 2018 Ellucian 16 Server Architecture • User accesses banner application from browser and submits a request to generate a report • Application Server receives the request and calls appropriate Database procedure. • Database procedure creates a request through UTL_HTTP and sends it to Jasper Server. • Jasper server receives the request and creates a file on the file system in PDF format using Jasper API’s. • Database procedure then reads the file from NFS . • Database procedure converts the file to stream. • Database procedure sends the stream back to application server. • Application server sends the response back to the user © 2018 Ellucian 17 Technical Overview © 2018 Ellucian 18 Technical Overview • Jasper Reporting Tool • Create Servlet • API’s © 2018 Ellucian 19 Technical Overview • Create Jasper Report ❖ Jaspersoft Studio is an Eclipse-based report designer for Jasper Reports Library and JasperReports Server ❖ It’s available as an Eclipse plug-in or as a stand-alone application.

  • Concept, Design and Development of Land Administration and Cadastre Systems Using Open Source Software
    CONCEPT, DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF LAND ADMINISTRATION AND CADASTRE SYSTEMS USING OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE TAREK ZEIN, CHRISTIAN TIMM and DR PAUL HARTFIEL Hansa Luftbild AG, Germany [email protected] Paper prepared for presentation at the “2015 WORLD BANK CONFERENCE ON LAND AND POVERTY ” The World Bank - Washington DC, March 23-27, 2015 Copyright 2015 by author(s). All rights reserved. Readers may make verbatim copies of this document for non-commercial purposes by any means, provided that this copyright notice appears on all such copies. Abstract In deploying new or modernizing existing land administration and cadastre systems the relevant authorities / agencies must decide whether to use open source or proprietary software. Neither open source nor proprietary software can fully cater to the requirements of land administration and cadastre authorities. The two types of platform will require customization in order to meet the requirements of the requesting authority, region or country. Such requirements will vary according to land legislation and local/regional regulations. Cadastre and land administration systems in developed countries have been established over a long period of time and these are usually implemented using expensive proprietary solutions. In most developing countries land administration systems only exist in fragments. Proprietary software solutions implemented in developed countries cannot be ported to developing countries since the system and administrative incompatibilities are too great. This paper discusses the advantages of open source software (OSS), contrasting it with proprietary software. It then goes on to describe the building of land registration and cadastre systems based on open source software and proposes a reference architecture for such systems based on the generic ISO Land Administration Domain Model (LADM).
