Seng 310 Project (3/3) 

Prototype Implementation

In this phase of the project you are asked to develop a prototype implementation
for your assigned project for this phase (the P: project). Your  prototype
needs to be based on the design document created during the
previous phase.

Based on your votes, the winning design documents for each
project are:  (4.4 and 4.5 both received the same number of  votes therefore
you are free to use one or the other or both for your prototype implementation)

  1. UVIC Messenger
  2. Web registration/course information
  3. Bus mapper
  4. What can I make for dinner

Your prototype should follow closely the design specifications. Any deviations
must be well documented. However you are free to expand your prototype based on information from other reports but this step is optional.

The main goal of the prototype is to illustrate the main aspects of interaction with
the system. You are free to use any programming environment, language you want
as long as you can demonstrate the system on demofest day (April 9th).
THE PROTOTYPE HAS TO BE A WORKING COMPUTER PROGRAM.

For your report you will need to describe the programming environment
you used, any choices you had to make and provide ALL the source code you wrote as part of your report. In addition you need to prepare a separate sheet with an informed consent form and 3-5 questions you would like to ask potential users of your system.
These forms will be used during the demofest day (April 9th).

Deliverable (April 8)

Your prototype implementation report will be in the form of webpages in
html format. Of course your prototype has to be an actual computer program.
You can submit the report by email to gtzan@cs.uvic.ca
as a tar.gz file anytime before midnight of April 8. You can also
provide me with a url as long as you can ensure that the url
will be valid for the duration of the course.

Use the description above as a guide on how to structure your report. I am willing to review outlines and preliminary version of your report. Use the design principles and guidelines we have learned to present the information in your report effectively.

This part of the project is worth 33% of the project grade (i.e 10% of the total grade).
