Bank Teller User Interface

The User Interface of our SMUtBank Teller Application has been made to be as cutting-edge as possible. Utilizing a couple of important features:

  1. Single-Page Design (Back and Forward arrows are still usable)
  2. Front-end validation for every field
  3. Strong usage of visual effects to guide the user
  4. High performance
  5. Page caching
  6. Minimal Clicks
  7. Fully tab-traversable
  8. Strong performance when used by first-time users
  9. Tight and fixed layout for familiarity and quick learning

Another important feature of User-Interface is a strong automated testing

Single Page Design

We make use of a Single Page Design for a very strong reason: Speed. Many of the page "changes" rely on Backbone.js to swap elements in and out and manage data through the use of AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML). The advantages of this are clear:

  • All resources only needed to be loaded once
  • Page requests are minimized to AJAX requests
  • Better user experience and no page "whiteouts" (White page when loading), making it closer to the performance of a native application.

However, there are also some disadvantages to this method:

  • Increased complexity in managing the web application, much more Javascript to manage the AJAX requests
  • Much more logic checks in place.

Credit Engine Technology Evaluation

We evaluated three mainstream commercial decision engines to use as the base of our credit engine.

As Jess did not have a frontend rule repository and FICO was too costly, we finally settled on Drools as it satisfied our main criterias listed in the table below.

Credit Approval


The Credit scoring engine is a complex decision service that performs automatic credit evaluation and approval for mass consumer products such as Home Loans, Auto Loans, and Education Loans.

FICO Website: FICO Scoring Overview

FICO is a leading company in predictive analytics, specialising in scoring individual's credit-worthiness over a scale of 800 points. Our group used FICO's scoring model as our main reference when developing the rules for our Credit Engine.

Teaching Tool


The teaching tool allows users to simulate varying customer profiles (credit capacity) and also different weightages and thresholds for each of the credit rules. This gives students a hands on learning experience on generic credit scoring rules utilize by banks.

Demographic Information for Generating Teaching Tool Loan Profiles

We retrieved our demographic information from various sources. When presented with alternative sources, we chose the source which was more reliable (e.g. from an authority such as the Government).
The demographics are modeled after the Singapore population whenever possible.
