\section{Service Design and Implementation} \label{sec:sdai}
\section{Service Design} \label{sec:sd}
This section will discuss the design of the service. This section will discuss the design of the service.
The design on this section is an ideal design solution, where no time limitations or engineering limitations were considered.
This section tries to provide a description of a designed solution that would allow for the best user experience possible.
This section will discuss the design decisions for the web application, API. The design proposed on this section can be viewed as a scope version of this project, and the \hyperref[sec:si]{Service Implementation} section will discuss how the scope was limited so that the service would achieve the primary goals of the project while following the design.
\subsection{Structure of the Service} \subsection{Structure of the Service}
The service is designed to be a 4 tier structure:
\begin{itemize}
\item{Presentation Layer}
\item{API Layer}
\item{Worker Layer}
\item{Data Layer}
\end{itemize}
This structure was selected because it allows separation of concerns, to happen based on the resources required by that layer.
The presentation layer requires interactivity of the user, and therefore it needs to be accessible from the outside, and be simple to use.
The presentation can be either implemented as webpage working directly on the server that is running the API, or it can be implemented as separate web app that uses the API to interface directly.
The API layer, is one of the most important part of the service. As it's going to be most used way to interact with the service.
The user can use the API to control their entire model process from importing, to classification of images.
The Worker layer, consists of a set of servers available to perform GPU loads.
The Data layer, consists of stored images, models, and user data.
\subsection{Interacting with the service}
As a software platform, this project requires a way for users to interact with the service.
This interface is mainly intended to be as control and monitoring interface.
The user would use the interface to set up and manage the models, then most of the interactions would happen via the API.
There are no specific restrictions on what the interface can be.
The interface can either be a webpage, a desktop application or a CLI tool.
It makes the most sense for the application to be a WEB application, since this project is software as a service.
Most of the interactions will be made by the users' services programmatically via the API, which will be an HTTPS REST API.
Independently of the kind of the application is it needs to allow users to fully control their data in an easy to use and understand way.
The application should allow users to:
%TODO add more
\begin{multicols}{2}
\begin{itemize}
\item Manage access tokens.
\item Upload images for training.
\item Delete images.
\item Request training model.
\item Delete models.
\item Classify Images.
\item See previous classification results
\item Keep track of model accuracy
\end{itemize}
\end{multicols}
\subsection{API}
As a software as a service, one of the main requirements is to be able to communicate with other services.
The API provides the simplest way for other services to interact with this service.
The API needs to enable users to perform any task that are required for the service is to work.
It needs to be able to:
\begin{multicols}{2}
\begin{itemize}
\item Upload images for training.
\item Delete images.
\item Classify Images.
\item See previous classification results
\end{itemize}
\end{multicols}
The API should be implemented to be able to handle large amounts of simultaneous requests, and respond to those requests as fast as possible.
API should be implemented such that it can be expanded easily, so that future improvements can happen.
The API should be consistent and easy to use, information on how to use the API should also be available to possible users.
As it was mention in \ref{sec:anal-api} most services use REST JSON APIs to communicate with each other. Therefore, to make this service as compatible with each other services, this service should also implement an REST JSON API.
\subsection{Generation of Models}
The service should use any means available to generate models, such means can be:
\begin{multicols}{2}
\begin{itemize}
\item Templating.
\item Transfer Learning.
\item Database Search.
\item Pretrained Models with classification heads.
\end{itemize}
\end{multicols}
\subsection{Models Training}
% The Training process follows % TODO have a flow diagram
Model Training should be independent of image classification. A model training should not affect any current classification. The system could use multiple ways to achieve this such as:
\begin{multicols}{2} % TODO think of more ways
\begin{itemize}
\item Separating the training to different machines.
\item Control the number of resources that training machine can utilize
\item Control the time when the shared training and inference machine can be used for training.
\item Allow users to have their own ``Runners'' where the training tasks can happen.
\end{itemize}
\end{multicols}
\subsection{Conclusion}
This section introduced multiple possible designs options for a service, that intends to achieve automated image classification, can follow to implement a robust system.
The next section will be discussing how the system was implemented and which of the possible design options was chosen when implementing the system.
\pagebreak
\section{Service Implementation} \label{sec:si}
This section will discuss how the service followed some possible designs to achieve a working system.
The design path that was decided matches what made sense for the scale and needs of the project.

The structure of the service matches the designed structure as it can be seen \ref{fig:simplified_service_diagram}.

The service is designed to be a 4 tier structure: The implementation contains: Web App; Web server, which serves the Web App; API; Training Runners; Model Runners;
\begin{itemize}
\item{Presentation Layer}
\item{API Layer}
\item{Worker Layer}
\item{Database Layer}
\end{itemize}
This structure was selected because it allows separation of concerns to happen based on the resources required by that layer. The implementation contains an extra nginx reverse proxy server that allows for the API and the webpage to be accessible from them same domain.
The presentation layer requires interactivity of the user, and therefore it needs to be accessible from the outside, and be simple to use. The rest of this section will go into details on how every tier of the structure was implemented.
The presentation layer consists of a webpage that interacts with the API layer, to manage both the resources allocated to users and administrators of the system.
More details of the implementation can be found in \ref{web-app-design}.
The API layer, controls the system, it's the interface that both the webpage and users' servers used to interact with the system. \subsection{Web Application} \label{web-app-design}
The Worker layer, consists of a set of servers available to perform GPU loads.

User testing tests that relate to the experience of the user while using the project and tests that quantitive test the project. User testing tests that relate to the experience of the user while using the project and tests that quantitive test the project.

\subsubsection{Conclusions}
The service can create models that represent what the users want in a reasonable amount of time without much interaction from the user.
The models created have the target accuracy required by the users, and the amount of time it takes for the models to train and expand is reasonable and within the margins that meet the success criteria for the project.
