| Summary: | The rise of popular online social networks (OSNs) has been at the cost of their users' privacy, because of their centralized storage and ownership of data. This report presents the design and implementation of PriSM, a business-oriented social network framework, designed to eliminate these privacy issues and problems faced by other traditional decentralized OSNs. This framework was designed from scratch and implemented keeping in mind the heirarchy and privacy requirements from an organizational perspective. A model-view-presenter design pattern was used to develop the client-side user interfaces, and the server side functionalities were implemented as Java programs using various libraries and SDKs. RESTful services were developed to accomplish inter-domain communications. Integrating these components together, a fully functional prototype of PriSM was implemented in this project. Future work can involve adding more features to the framework, improve its extensibility and test its performance for scalibility. |
