Design an overall user interface consisting of screens, commands, controls, and features to enable users to use the system. (You are to design the screens that will be used in your project- they are not to be copied and pasted from other sources).
Be sure to include a written description for each of the items that corresponds with each screen and the input/output procedures.
- How data will be input to the system?
· The physical layout for each input
· The input design and procedures
- How data will be output from the system?
· The physical layout for each output
· The output design and procedures
B. Data design
Develop a plan for data organization, storage, updating, and retrieval.
- Database design
· Database tables with their attributes should be presented
· Primary key(s) should be identified in each table, if any
· Three steps of normalization should be included. (You are to show each step of normalization to 3NF – Be sure to identify each step in your normalization process)
- Entity-relationship diagrams You are to draw an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) complete with Crows Foot notation. Remember that when reading ERDs the Entities and Relationships are read in both directions. Be sure to show the minimum and maximum cardinality for each direction.
- Data file storage and access
C. System architecture
Determine the architecture of the system as Web-based interface, client/server architecture, Internet/Intranet interface, network configuration, etc.
Phase 3: Project plan
A list of tasks or activities needed for implementing the proposed system
Estimating completion time and costs (cost includes a breakdown of labor, hardware, software, etc.)
A project schedule for performing those activities (Gantt charts or PERT charts)
References are expected and are to be in complete APA format.
Note that there is no other required software package except the MS Project software in this ITEC-630 course. As a result, you are only required to use the MS Project software to handle the scheduling part of the project and for other parts, you can use any word editing software or any drawing tools software.
