General Guidelines

1. A cover page or title page should be attached to your assignment. Use page 1 of this assignment brief as your cover page and make sure all details are accurately filled. 2. The entire assignment brief should be attached as the first section of your assignment. 3. The assignment should be prepared using a word processing software. 4. The assignment should be printed single sided in an A4 sized paper. 5. Allow 1” margin on top, bottom and right sides of the paper and 1.25” on the left side (for binding).

Word Processing Rules

1. The font size should be 12 point, and should be in the style of Time New Roman. 2. Set line spacing to 1.5. Justify all paragraphs. 3. Ensure that all headings are consistent in terms of size and font style. 4. Use footer function on the word processor to insert your name, unit, assignment no, and page number on each page. This is useful if individual sheets get detached from the submission. 5. Use the spell check and grammar check function of the word processing application to review the use of language on your assignment.

Important Points:

1. Carefully check carefully the hand in date and the instructions given with the assignment. Late submissions will not be accepted. 2. Ensure that sufficient time is spent to complete the assignment by the due date. 3. Do not wait till the last minute to print or bind the assignment. Such excuses will not be accepted for late submissions. 4. You must be responsible for efficient management of your time. 5. If you are unable to hand in your assignment on time and have valid reasons such as illness, you may apply (in writing) for an extension. 6. Failure to achieve at least a PASS grade will result in a REFERRAL grade. 7. Non-submission of work without valid reasons will lead to an automatic REFERRAL. You will then be asked to complete an alternative assignment. 8. If you use other people’s work or ideas in your assignment, it must be properly referenced, using the HARVARD referencing system, in your text or any bibliography. Otherwise, you’ll be found guilty of committing plagiarism. 9. If you are caught plagiarising, your grade will be reduced to a REFERRAL or at worst, you could be excluded from the course.

*Please note that assignment guidance is for reference only and should be more specific in detail to meet customized needs. Assignment brief Case study fineArts.com needs an Online auction system for selling fine art items on the Internet. The application provides a server side access to catalogue and record the items on auction. The customer can locally subscribe and participate to the auction from the web using a web browser. The main system features are: 

Items on auction are characterized by a code, an image, a description, and a category (i.e. painting, print, silverware, etc.). Each item has an auction starting date and time, and an end date and time (auction interval).



Items on auction are characterized by a status which specifies the starting price, the current price, the minimum bid increment, the time remaining before the end of the auction.



The item features and its status are displayed in a specific item web page. Items on auction can be added, deleted and modified using an application local to the server.



A Web site allows users to look at items on auction, navigating among them using various searching/sorting capabilities, for example, by category, and through other kinds of search (keyword, cost, auction end date, etc).



The Web site allows users to ask for and receive a user ID and password after subscribing for the auction by providing personal data.



Bids can be placed only during the auction interval by registered users, and can only be one or more bid increment higher than the current bid. After the client has subscribed for the auction he/she can access to a personal page which takes track of all the items he/she is concurring to buy.



After the auction end time, no more bids can be accepted, and the item is

assigned to the user with highest bid. JKC UDAMINEE JAYAKODY System Analysis Design HND COM 23 GAM/A-012831

Traditional Software Development Methodology The traditional method is a basic development method that takes less time. In this system the client cannot make any changes during the development period of the project. At the beginning of the project, the customer's needs and expectations can be explained. However, again the client can participate in the development of the project only after this is set up. The traditional method is a very efficient method

Agile system analysis methodologies The project takes longer to accomplish than the traditional method. But over time, this methodology gives the client a much better explanation of the project. Furthermore, in this methodology customer can stay from the beginn...
