1. Remote User Tracking Life Cycle Objectives
By Nathan Ratliff and Adrienne Noble

2. Operational Concepts
Allows people use their cell phones to find out where their friends are using UNIX computers
Implements personalized lists of friends and groups
Aimed at UW Computer Science and Engineering community

3. System Requirements Sign up on secure web page
Step through flow of pages to get information on where friends are logged into computers.

4. System and Software Architecture
Midlet Side Architecture
Requests specific information from servlet using J2ME
Servlet Side Architecture
Executes the “finger” command at midlet’s request
Sends parsed data to midlet
Uses Java servlet technology

5. Lifecycle Plan Designed for UW CSE students and faculty
Currently use finger command frequently
Accessibility through cell phone will be welcome development
Very little support needed
Administrator with access to CSE computers needs to start process

6. Feasibility Rationale
Able to produce a servlet that obtains “finger” information
Implemented secure CSE authentication for a web page
Prototypes showed that this project is very feasible
