Software Engineering for Business

The whole system is made up of two functionally productive modules: the user side and the administrator side. Pet release, rescue app, lost information review, pet interactive forum, and so forth, in the user side, help the user browse and operate the pet-related information to support them. At the other end of the administrator side, there are such modules as background content management, rescue process review, information release control, and so forth, helping the platform's operation and maintenance personnel efficiently control and monitor the content of the system. The system's overall design principle is focused on functionality integrity and user connection experience, to provide a viable solution for the pet rescue and communication platform's digital construction.

This project focused on the design and development of an AI-driven VTuber capable of real-time interaction with users, autonomous conversation, and integration with livestream platforms such as Twitch. Built using a Flask web application, the system employs a large language model (DeepSeek API) for dialogue generation, supported by a local caching system to enhance reliability. Text-to-speech (TTS) functionality was incorporated using pyttsx3, alongside VB-Audio Virtual Cable and VTube Studio to achieve lip-sync animation. Ethical considerations, including content moderation and user privacy, were embedded throughout the design. Challenges such as API instability and OAuth authentication changes were addressed through the implementation of fallback mechanisms and local data storage. The project emphasised a modular architecture to allow for future enhancements, including speech-to-text input, improved emotional responsiveness, and bespoke avatar development. It demonstrates practical skills in API integration, system resilience, caching strategies, and ethical AI design, all highly relevant to real-world AI deployment.

PawsSafe is a simple, safe website that helps pet owners find new homes for their pets. It connects owners with people who want to adopt or foster, reducing pressure on busy shelters. Before using the platform, all users must be verified to keep everyone safe. Pet listings show key details like name, age, location, and whether the pet has already been requested. If someone is interested, they can make a request and contact the owner once approved. The site also has special tags for emergency pets and sends system messages when a request is approved or declined. There’s a “What We Do” section to explain how everything works, plus a support page with advice and pet care resources. People can also donate to support the project. PawsSafe is built with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Node.js, with a focus on trust, ease of use, and helping animals in need.

Many students possess theoretical knowledge but lack the practical confidence and understanding to start investing, often deterred by jargon and complexity. InvestEd is an interactive web platform designed specifically to bridge this gap. It combines accessible learning modules that explain fundamental investment principles (like diversification and compounding) with a dynamic, risk-free portfolio simulator using Monte Carlo projections (P10-P90). Users learn concepts, test their understanding, and immediately apply knowledge by configuring simulations based on different risk levels and goals. Clear explanations and integrated tooltips demystify financial terms, while realistic scenario events add context. Users can save simulations and perform 'What-If' analysis to explore outcomes. InvestEd aims to build practical financial literacy and confidence, empowering postgraduates to make informed long-term investment decisions.

Data Scout: Building a football player scouting and analysis application displaying and contextualizing statistical data to evaluate player performance. This dissertation's main goal was to develop a web application which takes a large database with raw footballing data and utilizes it to offer users features that lets them gain insights about players performance and suitability to different roles and systems. The main focus of the application was on the user experience and offering user friendly visualizations and features to help the average football fan gain insights into player performance they wouldn’t be able to get through simply looking at raw data. The implementation required database management of both the footballing data and user account functionality, backend processing of the data and calls made to the backend by the frontend which was in turn used for visualization purposes.

Pulse Switch is a dynamic mobile fitness app that was developed in the aim of tackling the challenge to keep users engaged during exercise. Pulse Switch generates randomised, interval-based treadmill workouts acquiring user input minimum & maximum preferences, such as speed, incline, time, intervals, and calorie goals to offer an unpredictable and motivating experience to follow along. The app implements scientifically validated calculations to estimate user energy expenditure, removing the dependency for external hardware like smartwatches. Initially the focus is just on treadmill exercise, due to algorithm complexity, however in future the goal is to support a broader range of exercises. Developed for both iOS and Android, Pulse Switch lets users create their own accounts, starting their own personalised journey to a more varied and rewarding way to workout.
