Another study presents an evaluation framework for Learning Management Systems (LMS) which several processes as the following Content Management: including content adding, importing, and other functions. Curriculum mapping and planning: including accessibility, lesson adding, and personalization, assignments and assessment Learner engagement and administration: including different administration and tracking tools for the learners and their behavior Tools and services: including discussion forums, email, messaging. Bhanu [9]. Present a study for knowledge management (KM) perspective of electronic customer relationship management systems (E-CRM). This study has four E-CRM models. table3 illustrates the KM-CRM models and E-CRM models based on four E-CRM models. 3 The Proposed Model 3.1 Selecting the basic Entity that effect in the framework of E-SRMS System the faculty has basic entities such as : Topic, Student, Staff, Project, exam, location, etc. 3.2 Selecting the SRM roles that related with organization Administration business roles, services business roles, costumer business roles, transaction data flow between departments, determine the communication sets with system stakeholders, efficient and effective quality business roles. For each staff has more than one course or zero For each staff has more than one course or zero For each staff has more than one course or zero 3.3 Automated Transaction Data The new registration or any updating processing in data it must be transfer and execute for online publishing after making automate or manual administration review and testing
3.4 Maintaining the Integrity of the Specifications For any new specifications in any parts of system or when we adding a new parts or sub models for E-SRM system. It should be review, update and test the system to be integrity forever according to the architecture of SRM framework model 4 Integration Framework Model for MIS based on E-SRMS The synthesis framework discusses of E-SRMS the streaming data flow through the system. The framework illustrates immediately effective business decision for E-SRM system for specific an organization. This is framework include the all possible processes that executes in a strategic, management and operational levels in an organization. Figure 4. Illustrates the structure of Electronic Students Relationship Management System (E-SRMS) system for Faculty of computers and information (FCI) in Helwan University 5 Case Study : E-SRMS for Faculty of computers and information, Helwan University We need to Electronic SRM System for Faculty of computers and information (FCI), Helwan University to present electronic services for faculty users in over 24 hours. Also support them by specific services and other requirements to development the scientific and education life of research for Higher Education Communities. This is services such as: 5.1 Basic Entities for SRM system We determine basic entities and all requirements from available information and documentations for different stakeholders in FCI according to the user stats. 5.2 E-SRM Roles and Modules for FCI System. E-SRM of FCI system consists the following modules {Students, Staff, Projects, Thesis, Entertainments, Lectures Schedule, Faculty Map, Exams, Results, Conference}. The previous models have many relations between them, also it have some of roles determined by Owner or Egyptian universities requirements. Figure 5 illustrates FCI E-SRM system module. FCI E-SRM system modules Staff Surdent Project Topic and Lectures Schedule Entertainments Figure 4. Structure of E-SRM system for FCI Users will interact with the system through user interface component. We will have two types of users: backend users and front-end users. The backend users have the responsibility for managing the content of the web site. The front-end users include all site visitors. User interface process component will have the responsibility to check user privileges and to communicate with the database through data access logic component. Faculty Map Exams Results Conferences Figure 5. FCI E-SRM system modules
5.3 E-SRM Components for FCI System and Transaction Processes. E-SRM for FCI system consists two components "backend and front-end " which are interact automatically dynamic with inserting data in the previous modules. insertion or update process for Student member in FCI E- SRM system. E-SRM for FCI system has consists some of modules such as Students, Stuff, Projects, Thesis, Lectures Schedule, Exams, Results and Conference. We find a relation process between student and lecture schedule; relation process between Stuff and lecture schedule, relation process between Stuff, student and lecture schedule; relation process between student, thesis and Stuff; etc. 5.4 Maintaining the Integrity of the Specifications Any update or maintaining in system components or in any sub-model is integrity. SRMS have a high efficiency internal transaction processing mechanism to adding and removing or updating for any part of SRMS components.
