Last week, I searched about enhancing graphical user-interfaces designed with Java Swing. General name for the process is changing the look and feel of applications, where look refers to appearance of Jcomponents and feel refers to behaviour of these components. We have several options such as using swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel, swing.plaf.motif.MotifLookAndFeel, swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel. Also nimbus look and feel and plastic look and feel are some of the options of enhancing our user interface. After talking with our group members I'll try to integrate these into our project.

During this week, I have been implementing message protocol between Yaver and Command Center. Firstly, with using SMTP protocol, sending emails is designed and coded. Then I think, since Yaver is a militaries’ equipment, instead of mailing, storing messages in a database is better. Therefore I used department personal storage areas as database to store them. Since reaching personal areas require SSH client, I also implement a layer provide SSH connection and messages are stored there. Moreover, a simple listener treated as Command Center is also implemented to take message from DB.

In this week, I have continued to design our web-site. Last week, I prepared template of site, however, it was not completed. There were some deficits in the site. I uploaded all documents including CM report to the site. Moreover, I developed user interface of it. Some pictures and snapshots of our program were uploaded. New posts were written and site address is put under the Department Web site.

I have read documents about graphical user interface you have suggested and started to examine our user interface according to these issues. I have found some solvable issues related with user-friendliness. I have done some changes in GUI of Yaver. I have thought about whether we should or should not fix the user interface size, due to that mobile device screen is not flexible. And I will do major changes if group members agree. I have tested message protocol of Yaver which is done by Ali. I have also helped to design of website.
