1. Introduction
Skype, a proprietary voice-over-Internet Protocol service and software application is to be
developed. The service will allow users to communicate with peers by voice, video, and
instant messaging over the Internet. Voice-Over-Internet Protocol, also known as VoIP, is a
technology that allows telephone calls to be made over computer networks like the Internet.
VoIP converts analog voice signals into digital data packets and supports real-time, two-way
transmission of conversations using Internet Protocol (IP). VoIP calls can be made on the
Internet using a VoIP service provider and standard computer audio systems.

1.1. Purpose
The purpose of this document is to present a detailed description of the peer-to-peer
broadcast platform known as skype. It will explain the purpose and features of the
system, the interfaces of the system, what the system will do, and the constraints
under which the system must operate. This document is intended to be used as a
reference for developing the initial version of the skype platform for the development
team. This document is intended for the following group of people:-

✔Developers for the purpose of maintenance and new releases of the software.
✔Documentation writers.
✔Testers.

1.2. Scope
The software Skype version 1.0 is to be developed with the main purpose of
connecting people. People from around the world can connect through many different
ways. They can connect through one- or two-way audio, one- or two-way video, one-
or two-way audio and video or through text.
Skype is a method of broadcasting video using peer-to-peer technologies. Skype
offers a number of features based around calling (both free and paid), messaging
(including instant, voice and text messaging (SMS)), video chat, and file and screen
sharing. Its purpose is to allow users to stream video easily, quickly, and free of cost.
There are two distinct components that makeup the skype platform. There is a
component that runs in the user’s web browser and another component that functions
as a server to enable connectivity between users’ web browsers.

The software is expected to be ready in duration of two months with basic features
and in 6 months with complex features. The estimated cost is Rs 20 lakhs.

1.7. Overview
Section 1.0 discusses the purpose and scope of the software. Section 2.0 describes the
overall functionalities and constraints of
the software and user characteristics.
Section 3.0 details all the requirements needed to design the software.

2. Overall Description
2.1. Product Perspective
● The software product being developed is for providing video chat and voice
calls.
● The software requires no more than an internal or external camera and
microphone, often built-in your computer or smartphone, and an active
Internet connection.
● Users can also exchange text and video messages, files and images, as well as
create conference calls.
● Calls and messages within Skype are free, but those to landline and mobile
phones will cost varying amounts depending on the region and accompanying
subscription plan. Although some cost more than others, paying for the
premium services is typically far cheaper than purchasing a dedicated phone
or texting plan on your own.
● Skype is available on Microsoft Windows, Mac, or Linux, as well as
Android, Blackberry, iOS, and Windows Phone smartphones and tablets.

2.2. Product Functions

Skype is a software program, available for both computers and mobile devices, that
facilitates free or low-cost communication between Skype users, as well as between
Skype users and phones. Skype has several major functions that help it connect
people all over the world via chat, voice and video.

2.2.1. Computer-To-Computer Calls

Skype's most basic function -- and one that is free to use -- is computer-to-computer
calls. After signing up for a Skype account and adding a user to your contact list,
make a voice or video call to him simply by double-clicking his name and clicking
"Call" or "Call With Video." Just as cell phone call quality varies depending on signal
reception, the quality of Skype voice and video calls varies depending on the speed
and quality of your Internet connection.

2.2.2. Chat
Another free Skype feature is text-based chat between users. Similar to instant
messaging clients such as Windows Live Messenger and AIM, it's possible to chat
with users in your Skype contacts list. After clicking the name of a user, type a
message to him in the empty field at the bottom of the window that pops up and click
"Enter." In addition to chatting within Skype itself, it's possible to chat via text with
Skype contacts using a Web-based messenger such as "ILoveIM" or "imo.im."

2.2.3. Computer-To-Phone Calls

Once you load credit into your "Skype Account'' using a debit card, credit card or
PayPal, it's possible to make phone calls to landlines and cellphones around the
world, at rates that are fixed and generally low. To call a phone, click the "Call
Phones'' button at the bottom of your contact list, then enter the number in the
window that pops up, making sure to select a country from the list of options, if
you're calling internationally, before you click the "Call" button.

2.2.4. SMS Messages

It's also possible to send text messages to cellphones around the world with Skype.
After entering your phone number -- and country code, if necessary -- type a short
message in the blank field at the bottom of the window, as you would do if you were
chatting with someone. The difference in the "Call Phones" window is that the button
next to the field says "SMS," and clicking it sends an SMS text message to your
recipient. Skype notifies you when the text message has been delivered by showing
the word "delivered" above the message.

2.2.5. Hotkeys
Just pop open the Options menu, and click down to “advanced.” Click on “Hotkeys”
then select “Enable Keyboard Shortcuts.” From here, you’ll be able to set hotkeys of
your choice for a wide array of different functions. Granted, the only one I actually
use is Push To Talk, but it’s still incredibly convenient.

2.2.6. Screen Sharing

If you’re in a call with someone (or if you simply right click one of your online
contacts), you’ll probably notice that one of the options available to you is “Share
Screen.” What this basically does is display a live-stream of your computer screen for
your contact, at which point you can show them photos, display videos, or even run
presentations. This feature is only available for free if you’re in a video call between
two people. Any more than that, and you’re going to need to pay.

2.2.7. Send Contacts

Another nifty characteristic of Skype is that it actually allows you to share your
contacts with another user. Rather than having to tell one of your friends to search
through Skype’s database when they add one of your contacts, you can actually just
right-click on their name and select the “Send Contacts” option. From there, it’s a
simple matter of ticking the box next to the name of the contact (or contacts) you
want them to add. Naturally, this is one you should exercise caution when using: you
never know which of your contacts might not want someone knowing their username.

2.2.8. Hidden Emoticons

Skype has a pretty extensive list of emoticons, which can be accessed by clicking the
emote image next to your message box. Thing is, this doesn’t actually display all the
emotes available to you.

2.2.9. Edit Messages

Usually, You can actually edit the message you just sent by pressing “up” on your
keyboard with the input box selected. Not only that, you can edit any message you’ve
sent in the last several minutes simply by right clicking and hitting “edit message.”
Careful, though: you can only edit stuff you sent recently. Once it’s been in chat for a
while, it’s stuck there for good.

2.2.10. Customize Font

You can customize how your font looks both to yourself and to others in the Skype
Menu. Pop into Tools > Options, then click IM & SMS. From there, simply select
“IM Appearance,” and tweak your font to your liking.

2.2.11. Send Files

You can send, receive, or view any type of file over Skype, but there are size limits on
the files you can send. Some types of files may require separate software or an app to
view them.
There is a 300 MB file size limit on shared files. If you send a file that is too large,
you'll get the error "Not sent - File is larger than 300 MB."
The length of time a file is available in Skype, depends on the type of file you've
shared:
● Files - available for 30 days.
● Call recordings - available for 30 days.
● Voicemails - available for 30 days.
After the applicable period, the content is deleted from Skype servers. If you would
like access to the content for longer than the above period, please download and
backup your content regularly.

2.2.12. Screen Sharing

From PowerPoint presentations to videos, photos and even on-screen polls, screen
sharing makes collaboration easy. With integrated screen sharing, simply drag and
 drop files up to 300 MB into your conversation window and everyone on the call will
have access.
Easily share presentations, holiday photos or anything on your screen during a call
with integrated screen sharing.

2.2.13. Smart Messaging

Instantly react to any message with fun reactions or use @mentions to grab
someone’s attention.

2.2.14. Call Recordings and Live Subtitles

Record Skype calls to capture special moments, note key decisions and use live
subtitles to read the words that are spoken. Both call recording and ‘record my
screen’ options are completely cloud-based, ensuring you are comfortable in the
knowledge that your information is totally secure.

When the recording starts, everyone on the call will be notified.

2.2.15. Private Conversations

Keep your sensitive conversations private with industry standard end to end
encryption. Skype private conversations use the industry standard Signal Protocol,
allowing you to have end-to-end encrypted Skype audio calls, send text messages,
image, audio, and video files. The content of these conversations is hidden in the chat
list notifications to keep the information you share private.

2.3. User Characteristics

There are different kinds of users that will be interacting with the system. The
intended user of the software are as follows:-

● User A: A novice user. This user has little or no experience with electronic
means of audio and video calling and is not a frequent user of the product.
User A will find the product easy to use due to simple explanatory
screen-tours for each Skype function. They will also be assisted with User
Manuals.
● User B: An experienced customer. This user has used Skype or a similar
video/audio calling feature on several occasions before and conducts frequent
meetings or calls. There is only a small tour in the beginning which can be
skipped.
● Maintenance Personnel: A developer with prior experience in Skype. This
user is familiar with the functioning of Skype. He is responsible for reporting
bugs put forward by the end-users. He has the authority to change or restrict
various features provided by the software in situations of repair.

2.4. Operating Environment

The hardware, software and technology used should have following specifications:
• Ability to connect to the Wi-Fi or mobile network.
 • Ability to exchange data over the network.
• Processor with speed of 500 MHz
• Continuous power supply
• Ability to use camera, gallery, microphone and other services of mobile
• Ability to take input from user
• Device must have 512MB RAM or above
• Functional on iOS, android, Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.

2.5. Design and Implementation Constraints

● The software requires a minimum memory of 32 GB
● Validate user by validating username and password
● In case of network not available, prompt error message "Connection not
available”
● In case of not being able to access services of mobile hardware if eg: camera
is not working, prompt error message, "Can’t access camera".
● Lock Account- If the user failed to follow policies of Snapchat.
● While the basic Skype account is free, there are additional equipment costs to
consider for basic use including; a web-camera, microphone and headphones
which are preferred over speakers to prevent echoes from either the
microphone or conversational partner for video conferencing or just a
microphone and headphones for the audio option.
● The number of permitted participants on a group video call varies from 3 to a
maximum of 100.
● Each SMS message has a limit of 160 characters.
● Group video calls are subject to a fair usage limit of 100 hours per month
with no more than 10 hours per day and a limit of 4 hours per individual
video call. Once these limits have been reached, the video will switch off and
the call will convert to an audio call.

2.6. User Documentation

Our application will be primarily designed with user-friendliness in mind. The
application will have a lightweight and simplistic GUI that will attempt to hide
application and network complexities. In addition a video tutorial will be made to
show basic functionality of skype for incoming users.

2.7. Assumptions and Dependencies

● Skype requires a reasonably fast Internet connection. The speed of the
Internet connection will affect the overall sound quality which is dependent
on the network service. For slow connections, the video can be intermittent
and delayed but audio calls are generally good quality.
● High speed processing machine is available to fulfill all the tasks.
● User computer has enough power to rebroadcast
● Broadcaster has either an internal or external webcam
● Stable Power supply is available.
● Has ability to use camera, gallery, microphone and other services of mobile
● Has ability to take input from user
● Device has512MB RAM or above

carry messages.

(router) has access to the meaning of these messages.
