It was decided in 1959-60 to set up specialized divisions on commoditybasis to bring in more efficiency and compactness in the working ofCAL. These are

1. Foodgrains Division (Headed by Deputy Director)

This Division deals with research and standardization workrelated to foodgrains and allied products. Also, this deals withformulation / revision of Agmark grade specification ofCommodities.

2. Livestock Products Division (Headed by Dy. Director)

This division is undertaking the work related to the formulation

of grade standards for meat food product and the revision ofexisting standards.

Key Objectives of e-Governance :

To make suitable recommendation for overcoming thegradation of Commodity.

To familiarize with the methodology of Computerisationin Analytical data analysis of Commodity.

To make the system Web enabled for sharing Regional

Agmark Laboratory analytical data collection. To linkup management skills with new Information

Technology. To expertise / expedite the analysis of commodity. To maintain account of analytical statistical data. To make available information / data of Grade &

Specification of commodity on Commercial Basis. To develop a Centralized system for generating reports of

various commodities of acquisition / possession.

This section enumerates the requirements, other than thespecific functional requirements for the functioning of proposed

system. It also cater to issue related to security, external interfaces

and backup modes.

External Interface Requirement:

1. User Interface:

The system will have a Graphical User Interface

(GUI) with an online facility. All fields on the screen will have

intuitive labels and list of valid values will be displayed whereverpossible.

General Requirements:

8/4/2019 Dacnet Cal

38/62

2 Hardware Interface:

The proposed system will involve a number of computers

connected in a Local Area Network (LAN) at each of the locations to

access data from the server. The LANs in individuals Divisions

Laboratories will be connected and the Desktops at Regional Agmark

Laboratories of various state will be connected to CAL through leased

lines (Dialup through telephone).

Computers for desktop as well as a Server(SQL server, LAN Server)

Printers . For printing the various documents & reports

Digitizer .. For data analysis generate graphData Communication equipment, such as hubs, switches, modems etc.


8/4/2019 Dacnet Cal

39/62

3 Software Interface:

The proposed solution needs to be integrated with other

Loboratories across the States. The Web enable data transmission,

the registration of specification / gradation of Commodities, displayinformation on Web.

The analytical data analysis software for analysis the specification

/ gradation of Commodities.
