Server Requests

Filip's Design Study

Background

My design study is related to my part time job, where I am developing an application that can retrieve and plot data from a device that monitors air quality. The application is connected to a back end server where certain data is stored.

User operations that require communication with the server roughly include:

• Requesting help (and that the user be contacted)
• Electronically registering a device
• Calibrating a device - data about the calibration process is uploaded

Additionally, server communication is needed when the application:

• Authenticates with the server
• Pings the server to ensure network connectivity
