Description.
Cadac is a web-based database application system implemented in Model 2 (MVC) architecture using JSP, Java Servlets and DB2 as a backend. The system, similar to flickr and PhotoShelter, can be used by its clients to
• create their own profile and see images via timeline and gallery.
• upload and store images and follow other users.
• enter and update the descriptive information (time, place, caption, owner, category, copyright) for images.
• specify the access privileges for images to public, among followers, and friends.
• search for photos with the given words through image information.
It is not built using any framework.
Its front end is a theme which can be obtained from -(http://tympanus.net/Blueprints/GridGallery/)
