Assessment item 1
Task
Investigate the effectiveness of business information systems of the given case study. To do this, you are required to submit a complete report which includes an analysis of functionality, resources required, the broad feasibility of the project (i.e., risks) and proposed outcome based on the analysis of the case study.
Choose one of the case studies from the Interact2 Resources Section and use this case study to complete assessment item 1, assessment item 2, and assessment item 3.
Rationale
This assessment tasks covers the fundamental concepts of object oriented analysis, relationship between analysis and design and activities of SDLC. More specifically it assess your ability to
- Explain the concepts of object orientation methodology (Learning outcome 1);
- Describe the activities in each phase of the system development life cycle. (Learning Outcome 2)
Assessment item 2
In this assessment item, you are required to provide the detailed architecture and design of the system presented in Assessment Item 1 in report form. The total number of words should be between 1800-2000. Please note the words included in the diagrams/figures will not be counted. Amongst the information sought are answers to the following questions:
Questions you need to address are:
1. Identify and briefly describe the main functional and non-functional requirements for the major systems areas of the case study.
2. Explain the role of use cases for the creation of a domain model of the problem domain and draw use case diagrams for all systems in the case study that show all actors and use cases.
3. Draw a UML domain model class diagram for all systems in your chosen case study. Be as specific and accurate as possible, given the information provided. If needed information is not given, make realistic assumptions.
4. Review the functional and non-functional requirements for the major systems areas of the case study you have developed in question 1. Then, for each of the five design activity of SDLC, list and briefly describe some specific tasks required for each design activities (i.e., describing the environment, designing application components, user interfaces, the database, and software methods.
5. Develop a System Vision Document to give the total vision of the system and develop a work breakdown structure (WBS) for the project's first iteration.
Assessment item 3
Task
In this assignment, you are required to complete the followings to validate your system designs.
You have the following two choices to develop detailed object-oriented design models. You also need to submit a proper documentation describing the different aspect of developed component, within 2000 words.
Task 1: The students who have expertise in object-oriented programming are required to validate their system design through developing a prototype for at least one subsystem of chosen case study. You have an option to use any object-oriented programming language such as C++, Java, C#, etc. to develop this subsystem.
OR
Task 2: The students who have no expertise in object-oriented programming are required to validate their system design using interaction diagrams (i.e., communication diagrams or sequence diagrams) for at least one subsystem of chosen case study. To do this, identify 3 (three) most important use cases for the subsystem and develop communication diagrams or sequence diagrams for these use cases.
Rationale
The purpose of this assessment task is to develop student's skills and knowledge in :
- validating an OO design through the construction of a prototype
- converting design diagrams into program code
- preparing project documentation
- developing presentations, and through peer review to reflect on their own practice and improve their design.
