ABSTRACT
Internship is one of the ways to get practical experience of the theoretical knowledge that
we gain during the course in college. I interned at a company named Pulsetone Industries,
Bengaluru. It has been a great exposure in the company. Having an opportunity definitely
helps us understand how the corporate world really works. Working on new technologies,
new concepts always help us get better at what we do. Working as an intern not only adds
value to the knowledge but also adds value to the life experience. It makes us get ready for
the real-world experience. The company has supported and helped throughout the whole
internship period. Having a good start is important to believe in oneself and this opportunity
definitely helped me do that. The college has a great hand in making this happen to all the
students. The duration of time that I interned in the company not just helped me get better
at the subject knowledge but also helped me get better at coordinating with the colleagues
and also learn ways to understand every role in the company better. Having interned at a
start-up helped me know the end-to-end working.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 About the Company
Pulsetone Industries was incorporated in the year 1985 by an ex-NRI Post Graduate
electronic engineer. Ever since the inception, Pulsetone has been in the business of telecom
equipment manufacturing. In the year 1999, the Centre for Telecom Studies was started
principally to cater to the INHOUSE demands.
However, due to increased popularity & demand for these courses, this training center now
caters to everyone. This center for Telecom studies has completed 62 successful batches as
on 15th August 2005. Students from all over India and from overseas countries like Kuwait,

of new products and services. India is among the few countries which have realized the
potential of Telecom & IT in the process of economic growth.
These activities in India as well as worldwide will bring a massive boost to the employment
opportunities and in the process strengthen the economy. In the year 2006, the annual
revenue in the Indian Telecom Industry is expected to exceed Rs. 1,25,000 crores. With all
these developments the tele density in India still stands at nine phones/100 persons as
compared to 55/100 in China, 95/100 in Europe and 110/100 in the USA. Therefore, one
can imagine the quantum of equipment, finances and the massive number of trained telecom

2.1.1 Adobe XD
2.1.2 MockFlow
MockFlow is a powerful tool for drawing UI wireframes that also extends as a full planning
suite for product design. Full featured and intuitive editor that brings your concepts to life.
Thousands of pre-built components and layouts to draw any UI, Play, review or present
your UI drawings in preview mode. Draw UI collaboratively in MockFlow with its
powerful cloud features such as role-based permissions, real time editing, annotated
comments and design approvals to name a few.
2.1.3 HTML
The Hypertext Markup Language, or HTML is the standard markup language for
documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. It can be assisted by technologies
such as Cascading Style Sheets and scripting languages such as JavaScript. HTML
elements are the building blocks of HTML pages. With HTML constructs, images and other
objects such as interactive forms may be embedded into the rendered page. HTML provides
a means to create structured documents by denoting structural semantics for text such as
headings, paragraphs, lists, links, quotes and other items. HTML elements are delineated
by tags, written using angle brackets.
2.1.4 CSS
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation
of a document written in a markup language such as HTML CSS is a cornerstone
technology of the World Wide Web, alongside HTML and JavaScript.
CSS is designed to enable the separation of presentation and content, including layout,
colors, and fonts. This separation can improve content accessibility, provide more
flexibility and control in the specification of presentation characteristics, enable multiple
web pages to share formatting by specifying the relevant CSS in a separate .css file which
reduces complexity and repetition in the structural content as well as enabling the .css file
to be cached to improve the page load speed between the pages that share the file and its
formatting.
2.1.5 Bootstrap
Bootstrap is a HTML, CSS & JS Library that focuses on simplifying the development of
informative web pages (as opposed to web apps). The primary purpose of adding it to a
web project is to apply Bootstrap's choices of color, size, font and layout to that project. As
such, the primary factor is whether the developers in charge find those choices to their
liking. Once added to a project, Bootstrap provides basic style definitions for all HTML
elements. The result is a uniform appearance for prose, tables and form elements across
web browsers. In addition, developers can take advantage of CSS classes defined in
Bootstrap to further customize the appearance of their contents. For example, Bootstrap has
provisioned for light- and dark-colored tables, page headings, more prominent pull quotes,
and text with a highlight.
Bootstrap also comes with several JavaScript components in the form of jQuery plugins.
They provide additional user interface elements such as dialog boxes, tooltips, and
carousels. Each Bootstrap component consists of an HTML structure, CSS declarations,
and in some cases accompanying JavaScript code. They also extend the functionality of
some existing interface elements, including for example an auto-complete function for
input fields.
2.2.6 JavaScript
technologies of the World Wide Web. Over 97% of websites use it client-side for web page
behavior, often incorporating third-party libraries. All major web browsers have a dedicated
JavaScript engine to execute the code on the user's device. As a multi-paradigm language,
JavaScript supports event-driven, functional, and imperative programming styles. It has
application programming interfaces (APIs) for working with text, dates, regular
expressions, standard data structures, and the Document Object Model (DOM). The
ECMAScript standard does not include any input/output (I/O), such as networking, storage,
or graphics facilities. In practice, the web browser or other runtime system provides
JavaScript APIs for I/O. JavaScript engines were originally used only in web browsers, but
they are now core components of other software systems, most notably servers and a variety
of applications. Although there are similarities between JavaScript and Java, including
language name, syntax, and respective standard libraries, the two languages are distinct and
differ greatly in design.
2.1.7 jQuery
jQuery is a JavaScript library designed to simplify HTML DOM tree traversal and
manipulation, as well as event handling, CSS animation, and Ajax. It is free, open-source
software using the permissive MIT License. As of May 2019, jQuery is used by 73% of the
10 million most popular websites. Web analysis indicates that it is the most widely
deployed JavaScript library by a large margin, having at least 3 to 4 times more usage than
any other JavaScript library. jQuery’s syntax is designed to make it easier to navigate a
document, select DOM elements, create animations, handle events, and develop Ajax
applications. jQuery also provides capabilities for developers to create plug-ins on top of
the JavaScript library. This enables developers to create abstractions for low-level
interaction and animation, advanced effects and high-level, theme able widgets.
The modular approach to the jQuery library allows the creation of powerful dynamic web
pages and Web applications. jQuery also provides a paradigm for event handling that goes
beyond basic DOM element selection and manipulation. The event assignment and the
event callback function definition are done in a single step in a single location in the code.
jQuery also aims to incorporate other highly used JavaScript functionality (e.g., fade ins
and fade outs when hiding elements, animations by manipulating CSS properties). jQuery
was originally created in January 2006 at BarCamp NYC by John Resig, influenced by
Dean Edwards' earlier cssQuery library. It is currently maintained by a team of developers
led by Timmy Willison (with the jQuery selector engine, Sizzle, being led by Richard
Gibson).
Jira is primarily designed for software development, workflow management systems. It has
been utilized as a project management solution by many project teams. This application is
a proprietary issue tracking product developed by Atlassian that allows bug tracking and
agile project management. According to Atlassian, Jira is used for issue tracking and project
management by over 180,000 customers in 190 countries. Some of the organizations that
have used Jira at some point in time for bug-tracking and project management include
Fedora Commons, Hibernate, and the Apache Software Foundation, which uses both Jira
and Bugzilla. Jira includes tools allowing migration from competitor Bugzilla. Jira is
offered in four packages:
2. Jira Software includes the base software, including agile project management
features (previously a separate product: Jira Agile).
2.2.2 Slack
Slack brings team communication and collaboration into one place so you can get more
work done, whether you belong to a large enterprise or a small business. Tick off your to-
do list and make progress on your projects by bringing the right people, conversations, tools
and information you need together. Slack is available on any device, so you can find and
access your team and your work whether you’re at your desk or on the go.
2.2.3 GitHub
GitHub, Inc. is a provider of Internet hosting for software development and version control
using Git. It offers the distributed version control and source code management (SCM)
functionality of Git, plus its own features. It provides access control and several
collaboration features such as bug tracking, feature requests, task management, continuous
integration and wikis for every project. At the heart of GitHub is Git, an open source project
started by Linux creator Linus Torvalds. Matthew McCullough, a trainer at GitHub,
explains that Git, like other version control systems, manages and stores revisions of
projects. Although it’s mostly used for code, McCullough says Git could be used to manage
any other type of file, such as Word documents or Final Cut projects. Think of it as a filing
system for every draft of a document.
GitHub is a Git repository hosting service, but it adds many of its own features. While Git
is a command line tool, GitHub provides a Web-based graphical interface. It also provides
access control and several collaboration features, such as a wikis and basic task
management tools for every project.
As an UI-UX Developer , I was responsible for delivering the best online user experience,
which makes my role extremely important for the success and ensuring customer
satisfaction and loyalty.
I was designing graphic user interface elements, like menus, tabs, forms, and widgets using
various methods and the latest technology.
My duties and responsibilities were planning and implementing new designs, optimizing
existing user interface designs, testing for intuitivity and experience, communicating with
clients to understand their business goals and objectives, developing technical and business
requirements and always strive to deliver intuitive and user-centered solutions, combining
creativity with an awareness of the design elements, creating prototypes for new product
ideas, testing new ideas before implementing and conducting an ongoing user research.
The observations made were with respect to the working of the corporate world. The way
responsibilities are distributed and also the way time tracking is done with respect to
completion of the tasks and their estimates. The company policies, its working and the
coordination definitely adds to the observation.
2.5 Activity
Due to current Covid-19 pandemic, the company Pulsetone Industries decided to shift
major part of the operations virtual. The company planned to build an ERP for easy
management of business. Enterprise resource planning (ERP) refers to a type
of software that organizations use to manage day-to-day business activities such as
accounting, procurement, project management, risk management and compliance, and
supply chain operations.
Some of the tasks included in the project were Trainer-Trainee interaction platform,
Inventory Management System, Payment Portal, Mobile service registration portal. Our
team was assigned to Trainee-Trainer engagement portal. We first gathered and evaluated
user requirements, in collaboration with product managers and engineers. Some of the other
tasks our team succeeded in presenting design ideas using storyboards, process flows and
sitemaps and designing graphic user interface elements, like menus, tabs and widgets using
Adobe XD and MockFlow.
Later our team translated creative software design concepts such as wireframes, workflow
and ideas into reality using front end technologies such as Bootstrap, CSS, JavaScript and
jQuery. The task of a user experience designer is to design and create a software interfaces
by prioritizing Users and business requirements over technology limitations and
constraints. Our team participated in the design process as a consultant on possibilities,
takes the design that is created by the UX Designer as an input, understands it, knows
enough to appreciate it, work through the constraints and execute the design vision into
engineered reality.
In conclusion, our team succeeded in delivering the expected outcome in under forty days.
Chapter 3
CONCLUSION
The internship experience so far has really been useful as it helps us get a better
understanding of how the corporate world works. It has really added value to whatever we
have learnt in college. I have learnt many new things after interning. Having the experience
gives a good edge for learning as that is the best experience in one's life. Having interned
at a startup truly adds value to the knowledge that one has. I truly am thankful for all the
coordination that I have received from college, company and everyone that supported me
throughout. This is one of the cherished experiences.
In a nutshell, this internship has been an excellent and rewarding experience. I can conclude
that there have been a lot I’ve learnt from my work at Chemosis. Needless to say, the
technical aspects of the work I’ve done are not flawless and could be improved provided
enough time. As someone with no prior experience with Node.js whatsoever I believe my
time spent in research and discovering it was well worth it and contributed to finding an
acceptable solution to build a fully functional web service. Two main things that I’ve
learned the importance of our time-management skills and self-motivation.
