 1.Introduction
Social networking in mobile application is social networking where individuals with similar interests
converse and connect with one another through their mobile phone and/or tablet. Much like web-based
social networking, mobile social networking occurs in virtual communities. A current trend for social
networking websites, such as Face book, is to create mobile apps to give their users instant and real-
time access from their device. In turn, native mobile social networks have been created .communities
which are built around mobile functionality. More and more, the line between mobile and web is being
blurred as mobile apps use existing social networks to create native communities and promote
discovery, and webbased social networks take advantage of mobile features and accessibility. Mobile
social networking sites allow users to create a profile, send and receive messages via phone or computer
and visit an on-line version of mobile site.

Aim & objective

The main aim of this social network is to give different online access and can be used by our country to

Method

Our work takes inspiration from this manual process of finding pages that look the same. Specifically, we
automate some of what the human does to recognize duplication of an original page. To do this we
analyze a web page based on some of its structural characteristics and based on the way it looks visually.
Specifically, we record a number of page markup characteristics including the page title text and number
of links, images, forms, frames and metatags. Throughout the rest of this paper we will refer to this 5
tuple as a pages structural fingerprint. The image analysis portion of this work is at it’s simplest is done
by setting a fixed dimension and quality setting for rendering a page within a headless browser and then
taking a page screenshot. We computer hash of the resulting image and compare the hash values using
the Hamming Distance equation. This process takes on average 4 seconds a page including software

build-up/tear-down time. To speed up the process further, we could prioritize image analysis for pages
that with matches in the most easily parsed/computed items from the pages markup.

Capture System Network Design:

We have built the following system to overcome the combination of rate limitations imposed by the
various social media networks as well as network session throttling imposed by carriers of residential
Internet service. This system is minimizes the number of outgoing connections by wrapping them in an
encrypted tunnel through the use of the TOR network. As a result, the IP and MAC address of the
requesting computer is hidden from the social media network providers which pro-vides research
anonymity.

 3.Project Management

The project manager

It was necessary to change responsibilities of stakeholders in the project before adopting any
rule or method of communication. The project manager who played at the same time account
manager responsibilities began to be focused only on customer business aspects and project
manager functions were taken over by another person, a company employee who did not have
any liabilities on that client to put concerned project delivery due to other issues on the
agenda. This redefinition of roles it’s illustrated in Figure 3.

Figure 3 - Redefining project manager responsibilities

Project management adopted method

The implementation of the previous point was required to be able to proceed with the adoption of a
standard or method in project management. First was investigated the existence of any ISO standard on
project management. ISO 21500: 2012 was the choice because indicates how to create the best
practices in project management. After the study of the ISO and verify the similarities and differences

8|Page
with the PMBOK, with the latter having the definition of tools and techniques to use as opposed to the
ISO and this being the standard that is recommended by the company's PMO, it was decided to apply
the PMBOK in project management. With the project management standard defined a project kick-off
meeting was convened. Until this meeting never the various elements involved in the project, with a
year and a half of execution had been together in the same meeting room. The purpose of this meeting
was to clearly define the scope of the project, the role of each in the project, known limitations and
internally present the work plan to further communicate it to the customer and get a validation. In
addition to the information to be provided was intended that the various elements involved in the
project began to form a project team, as illustrated in Figure 8. The project team, in the implementation
phase, has in some moments up to 16 elements assigned. The project manager plays a key role in this
field, working as a facilitator for the various elements can perform the necessary work, communicate in
a timely and constructive manner the next steps related to the project plan and help create a sense of
belonging to the project.

Implemented communication model

The communication model, the main objective of this work can only be achieved after the redefinition of
the role project manager and the adoption of a project management standard. The goal was to create a
support for an effective communication between the various elements of the project team and allow
access to relevant information anytime anywhere. It was necessary to define a communication plan and

9|Page
was followed PMBOK's Project Communication Management. [ This PMBOK knowledge area defines
three methods for implementing a communication management model, each consisting of inputs, tools
and techniques and outputs. Being the desired end result to have a more effective form of
communication between the various members of the team.

Manage Communications
With this process the concern was to ensure that the information stored in the repository were updated
as much as possible, and that the information sent to the client it was the only one he needed.

Control Communications
With this process it was possible to control the communication plan and at the same time carry out his
monitoring. Sending emails to the heads of each unit for decision making about the project decreased.
The number of documents produced in project increased.

Action Plan
OBJECTIVE 1 : Finalize the project budget and secure the resources and funds.

 Submit a budget plan to the finance manager.

 Identify suppliers of materials and equipment.

OBJECTIVE 2 : Successfully begin and finish the renovation project as scheduled.

 Notify the team about the project timeline.

 Brief the team members about the project’s 1st phase.

 Create a Gantt chart for checking the project's progress.

 Set reminders about the deadline.

 5.Risk Management
Social networks may be described as internet-based applications that allow users to create
profiles and share content easily with other users. A huge variety of these applications are
readily available and users can interact from a large range of devices, including mobile phones.
Many organisations have embraced Social Networking as a cost-effective and quick way to
engage their clients or promote their brand to new and existing markets.

As with other internet-based systems, there are a number of risks that should be fully managed
and understood before organisations adopt social networking too widely. A range of controls
will usually be required in order to balance these risks with the business needs.

This document is presented in an effort to describe some of the main risks in a non technical
way, to aid the debate within organisations around social networking. The risks detailed in the
table below are based on the assumption of relatively open access to social networking for staff
in a business environment.

Actual measures of risk are not given as these can vary between organisations and sectors. For
example, a bank may be more risk-averse than a marketing organisation. Similarly, risk
mitigation strategies are not discussed here as without an understanding of the exposure to a
risk it is difficult to generalise as to what would constitute an acceptable mitigation strategy.

Some of the risks described in the table below are associated with the behaviour of staff.
Governance must take into account technical capabilities and relative tendency of staff to
engage in risky behaviour on these sites. It may be easier to anticipate bad behaviour and
reputation damage so that these risks can be mitigated prior to adoption.

It should also be noted that some of the risks are not related to the actual technology used, or
to the security of information. For example, the risk of ‘loss of productivity’ or ‘time-wasting’ is
often cited as the primary reason why some organisations choose to block access to social
networking sites. Similarly, when it comes to the risk of ‘reputational damage’, the reaction to a
incident needs to be very carefully managed, usually with input from ‘communications’ or
‘public relations’ staff.

As social networking risks and benefits may be shared across different business units, it is
recommended that an organisational-wide strategy is developed which engages risk owners
and stakeholders.

19 | P a g e
It is also worth noting that some of the risks below are already established risks, for which some
mitigating actions may already be in place. An example might be the risks associated with ‘virus
infection’ or ‘malware’.

In reading the table below please bear in mind that these risks are being presented to help
stimulate informed debate around the issue of social networking, and to help the business
understand some of the risks that may need to be considered in your organisation.

6. Conclusion
Social media can be a powerful tool for any organization. It can increase your
visibility, enhance relationships, establish two-way communication with
customers, provide a forum for feedback, and improve the awareness and
reputation of the organization. For these reasons, social media websites have
become an important platform for organizations. As organizations “focus on
effectively leveraging social media platforms, there are a few critical things to
keep in mind”. Organizations must first develop a comprehensive social media
communication strategy and then incorporate best practices in the
implementation of that strategy. Following this guide can help the organization
effectively and successfully derive the maximum benefit from their social media
initiative.
