Simulation of Social Media Facebook System
ABSTRACT
The purpose of the project is to simulate the social media Facebook system, mainly how it
receives user input and deal with large and different kinds of data. It is a client-server system
where users can log in and out as well as interact with other users in the system. ER model is
used to represent various types of data involved and then relational schemas are generated in the
standard way. This client is implemented using JavaScript and PHP, which contains different
UI pages in the system that users can access themselves and the server uses MSDB relational
database management system to store the data.
