 Messaging Feature : To enhance real-time communication within your Tour and Travel web
app, you can integrate a messaging feature using Socket.io in JavaScript. Socket.io is a
powerful library that enables bidirectional communication between clients and the server in
real-time. First, you need to install Socket.io using npm. On the server-side (Node.js), you
create an Express app and integrate Socket.io for handling real-time events. The server listens
for connections, receives chat messages, and broadcasts them to all connected clients. On the
client-side (HTML + JavaScript), you include the Socket.io library and use it to connect to the
server. Users can submit messages through a form, and Socket.io ensures that the messages are
instantly broadcasted to all connected clients, creating a seamless and responsive messaging
experience. This basic implementation can be extended and customized to fit the specific needs
of your Tour and Travel web app, providing users with a real-time communication platform
during their travel experiences.

3.4 Use Case Diagram

Certainly, here are the four most essential use cases for the Tour and Travel web app:

1. User Registration
2. Itinerary Planning
3. Mapping and Navigation
4. Notification Service.

3.5 System Design

1. Start Registration: The process begins when a user initiates registration.

2. User provides information: The user provides personal information, including but
not limited to name, email address, and password.

3. Information Valid? (Yes/No): An algorithm validates the user-provided

information. This may involve multiple checks, such as:

 Verifying the email format.

 Checking the password's strength and complexity.

 Ensuring that required fields are not empty.

13
4. Validate Information (Yes): If the provided information is valid, the process
proceeds to the next step. If not, it goes to the "Display Error Message" step.

5. Display Error Message: If the information is found to be invalid.

6. Stop: The process ends.

This flowchart and the associated algorithm describe the sequence of actions and
decisions involved in the user registration process of the Tour and Travel web app.

1. Start Notification Services: The process begins when the notification service is
initiated.

2. Check for Upcoming Events: The algorithm checks for upcoming events. This
could involve querying an events database or accessing an events API. The events

14
database or API would be expected to provide data on events, including event
names, dates, and locations.

3. Events Found? (Yes/No): The algorithm determines whether upcoming events are
found. If events are found, the process proceeds to the "Notify User of Events"
step. If no events are found, it goes to the "No Events Found" step.

4. Notify User of Events: If upcoming events are found, the algorithm sends
notifications to users. These notifications could include event details, such as event
name, date, and location. Notifications may be sent through emails, push
notifications, or in-app alerts.

5. Check for Weather Updates: The algorithm checks for weather updates. It
typically involves making API requests to weather services or querying a weather
database to obtain current weather data for the user's location or selected
destinations.

6. Notify User of Weather Updates: If weather updates are available, the algorithm
sends notifications to users. These notifications would include current weather
conditions, forecasts, and any relevant weather alerts.

7. Stop: The process ends, and users are provided with notifications based on the
availability of upcoming events and weather updates. The notifications enhance
the user's travel experience by keeping them informed about relevant events and
weather conditions.
