This may vary depending on you setup. You will need to provide a screen capture of the two applications running on your development system. f.) Identify different technologies used in the sample application that you will need to research on to do the project. You will need to do some research here. The specification document will list a number of technologies but some of them might not be relevant to the current implementation solution. For each of the technologies write a short description of the purpose and where it would be used in the project.
