This assignment has two parts. Part A consists of making the group and app preference list. After I have received the group memberships, I will assign the app and have directory spaces made for you. Part B consists of selecting a group name and making the email list for your group.<\/p>\n
The project is a semester long team project: designing and implementing an web\u00a0app.\u00a0 The team size should be about 4 or 5 students in CS4760 and 2 to 3 students in HU4628.<\/p>\n
While choosing teams consider schedules, jobs, where prospective members live and work, and anything else that might impact how well the team will function.<\/span><\/p>\n I also advise that one of your team\u00a0members knows about databases or is interested in learning about databases. Each project will make a database and provide access to the database. It is not necessary for your database expert to have taken the database course, but the database expert will need to have basic understanding of tables, their use and familiar with SQL queries.<\/p>\n Also, useful for your team\u00a0would be a team\u00a0members that are already familiar with Web backend (scripting) and frontend (html, css and javascript)\u00a0programming. All members do not need to have experience with web\u00a0or database programming, you will learn web\u00a0development, but a member with prior experience will be able to help with the initial app code design and getting programming started. If you have any experience with web\u00a0or database programming, please try to find a group that does not have experienced members.<\/p>\n You should schedule meetings well in advance to ensure participation of all team members. During your meetings, take notes on your design decisions and how you reached your decision, so that you can use the notes in preparing your reports. Record your notes in the post meeting form (http:\/\/cs4760.csl.mtu.edu\/2015\/resources\/PostMeetingForm.docx<\/a>) and uploa’d them\u00a0to your project directory and website.<\/p>\n Your team\u00a0should list application choices from the list in the link below:<\/p>\n Potential Application List<\/p>\n Choose 3 applications and rank them. List the applications in order such that your first choice is first on the list, second choice is second on the list, and third choice is last on the list.<\/p>\n GitHub account<\/p>\n Your team\u00a0should send me (rpastel at mtu.edu), Robert Johnson\u00a0(rrjohnso\u00a0at mtu.edu) and Wei, my assistant, (wzhang5 at mtu.edu) an email by 5 pm on the due date of Project Assignment 1 Part A. The subject line of the email should be<\/p>\n cs4760-hu4628 Part A Project Assignment 1<\/p>\n The email should include:<\/p>\n Please send the email promptly because I need time to have your group directories setup.<\/p>\n I will use the order that I receive the emails to resolve conflicts between groups’ app preferences, meaning for example if two groups choose the same app as their first choice then I will assign the app to the group that emailed me first. I will also use this order to resolve scheduling conflicts. Emailing your group’s selection first will be a distinct advantage throughout the semester.<\/p>\n After I have received all the emails from Part A, I will assign the apps to teams. Then your team\u00a0should choose a name. The name should make all of you proud, but it should not be too long. If your group name is inappropriate I will change it.<\/p>\n Each team should have two leaders, one project technical lead, a CS4760 team member, and one product owner, a HU4628 team member. The technical lead will take the lead on the implementation concerns; the product owner will take the lead on the clients and users’ requirement concerns. Two leaders will collaborate to help coordinate the team and should share the responsibilities with all other team members.<\/p>\n Your group should also make an email list for your group.
