Desarrollo de un prototipo de sistema distribuido para la gestión de eventos del Observatorio Astronómico de Quito

Abstract

This work presents the development of a prototype distributed system for event management of the Quito Astronomical Observatory, which is a composite of a database, a web application, and a mobile application.

A database was implemented using MongoDB, a RESTful API using Node, while the React framework was used for the web client application, this application allows managing the information that is presented in the mobile application. For the development of the mobile application, the React Native framework was used to obtain an application for Android and iOS, in which users can consult events from the Astronomical Observatory.

The document is organized as follows: The first chapter presents the objectives, scope and theoretical foundations for the development of the prototype. In the second chapter, the requirements, design and implementation of the system are presented, in chapter three the results of the performance tests and error correction are presented. Finally, the fourth chapter presents the conclusions and recommendations obtained in the development of the prototype.

The system is developed with different software tools as: Visual Studio, MongoDB, Android Studio, React and using the JavaScript programming language.
