ABSTRACT

Elly Setyono, Traffic Data Conversion System of NEAX 61 Sigma Telephone Switching Central (supervised by Zahir Zainuddin and Zulfajri Hasanuddin).

This is a research project to design an application program for converting traffic data in text format into a database system. In this case, the NEAX 61 Sigma telephone switching at the PT. Telkom’s central office at Panakukkang, Makassar, South Sulawesi is the source of the traffic data. 

The application package is written using Java programming language by utilizing the I/O file string manipulation classes. The database system is designed to be a web-based system with a mysql database server.

Use-case models, operational sequences and object orientation are the analytical tools for designing the application. The data characteristics and the mapping of their pattern determine how to develop the data conversion application.

January and February 2006 traffic data have been taken as samples. The tests have shown that the average conversion time for these data is 22.97 seconds. The converted database system is accessible through a computer network. Then it is possible to develop a web-based traffic information system using the database system.
