Introduction

Cybera is a cyber cafe management system. It works on the client-server model where one computer, the server controls a group of other computers: the client workstations.

Cybera contols the access to the workstations and permits customers to use them in several different ways :

• Prepaid Cards accounts : customers buy rechargeable cards that have a unique ID

• Prepaid Client accounts : customers have a rechargeable client account with a login and a password

• Prepaid Selfservice sessions : customers pay for a given usage time at the front desk and are attributed a workstation

• Postpaid Selfservice sessions : customers use any free workstation and pay for the time that they have spent when they leave.

Cybera is also usable as a training tool, blocking client workstations and even broadcasting the server's screen to each client.
