Sin Cheong Loong
Eugene Zhuang

Agenda
1)To consolidate any work progress done on lunar new year

* A meeting didn't occur on Week 14 as it was the Lunar New Year.

- Wilfred came up with a new User interface, but wasn't well received, hence both Cheong Loong and Wilfred will re-do a new interface base on the feedback received.

- Kyant has also implemented a simple multi thread function with the prototype and will be refining it to be fully implemented on the final product when its ready.

- Eugene's research on the different file types is proceeding at a steady pace, but might require a bit more time (quoted by him). Kyant has volunteered to assist him when he is done with his part.

- Mark has research a little into getting another performance measurement and will research on it.

- With these further addons to the project, the group decided that by the end of week 17, these add-ons should be fully implemented for testing to the product.

- A meeting was also established with our supervisor, the next meeting will be conducted on the day we meet him.

- With that, the meeting was adjourned.

Agenda
1)Discussion about 1st sessions
2)Discuss any findings

- The meeting began with the asking the group whether anyone has produce any research based on session 1 evaluation.

- Both Eugene and Kyant had researched into different file types and will continue to work on it with the prototype to incorporate it.

-Cheong Loong and Wilfred will be working on a new user interface different from the first prototype.

- Mark has researched on a charting control for our development tool and will work on it.

- The group then discussed on other functions to add to the program.

- Cheong Loong suggested a mode where the program will break up the data into blocks, the size of the blocks determined by the algorithm chosen, and also allowing users to change the blocks's mode cipher, with this mode, it is possible to determine whether by using different block ciphers, will it be more secure.

- The group members seconded this function and will work towards that direction

- Before the meeting was adjourned, the task given to the respective members who has already did preliminary research on their functions to research/work more in depth and if able to get it working.

The first session of FYP was conducted on this day, 7 January 2012, the objective of the first session was to allow our accessor to comment on the direction of several aspect of the project.

After the meeting with our accessor, Mr Japit, he let us know on certain missing features/functions that should be included in our program. Such as allowing the users to "plug in" algorithms of their choice from a given library, the ability to encrypt different file types and the functionality of running a multi-threaded process.

Other additional functions to be added is the capability to display the results in a chart for easier reference.

The group stayed back after the meeting to discuss the missing functions that our accessor has discussed with us, by the end of the discussion, the group is given the task to research on the different functions and is expected to discussed any findings the next meeting.
