Reference no: EM132314821

Assignment - You are required to design a library system for Kent Institute.

Assume that there are:

Two campuses - Sydney and Melbourne
300 VET level students
400 Higher Education students
20 professional staff and 40 academic staff.

You need to decide how many books, journals, DVDs or other media the library holds.

Then specify the range of operations which will be needed for the library system. For each of these operations, discuss the most suitable sorting or searching method and why your chosen algorithm for each operation is the most appropriate.

A nearby University wants to use your system.

They have:

One campus
25000 undergraduate students
10000 postgraduate students
5000 research students
2000 professional staff
4000 academic staff

What changes, if any, would you make to your system for the University to be able to use it effectively and efficiently?

Tasks to be completed - Given the above information:

a) Decide the appropriate variables, keys and ranges to be used in the system. Justify.

b) The operations that library system should support.

c) Algorithms for the operations that your system should support. Also, justify the choice of algorithms.

d) Changes for the larger university, if any, to be made in the original system. Justify.
