weight : 50 %
Adv. Information Systems Development Assignment
Lecturer : Zainudin Johari
Due Date : 10 December 2007
Title of Project : Designing and development of Orange Training Institute Information Systems
Problem Statement
You are tasked with developing a new student registration system for Orange Training Institute which is located in Bangsar Kuala Lumpur. The college would like a new client-server system to replace its much older system developed around mainframe technology. The new system will allow students to register for courses and view grades from personal computers attached to the campus network. Professors will be able to access the system to sign up to teach courses as well as record grades.
Due to a decrease in federal funding, the college cannot afford to replace the entire system at once. The college will keep the existing course catalog database where all course information is maintained. This database is an Oracle relational database running on an IBM mainframe. Fortunately, the college has invested in an open SQL interface that allows access to this database from the college's UNIX servers. The legacy system's performance is poor, so the new system must ensure that access to the data on the legacy system occurs in a timely manner. The new system will access course information from the legacy database but will not update it. The registrar's office will continue to maintain course information through another system.
At the beginning of each semester, students may request a course catalogue containing a list of course offerings for the semester. Information about each course, such as professor, department, and prerequisites, will be included to help students make informed decisions. This institute has 3 different kinds of students, Certificate, Diploma and Degree.
The new system will allow students to select up to four course offerings for any term. In addition, each student will indicate up to two alternative choices in cast the student cannot be assigned to a primary selection. Course offerings will have a maximum of 25 students, and a minimum of five students. A course offering with fewer than five students will be canceled. For each semester, there is a period of time that students can change their schedule. Students must be able to access the system during this time to add or drop courses. Once the registration process is completed for a student, the registration system sends information to the billing system so the student can be billed for the term. If a course fills up during the actual registration process, the student must be notified of the change before submitting the schedule for processing.
Head of School will be processing the registration forms in order to ensure the students adhere to the regulations stipulated.
At the end of the semester, the student will be able to access the system to view an electronic grade report. Since student grades are sensitive information, the system must employ extra security measures to prevent unauthorized access. The Head of Systems Analyst will ensure the systems are working well and should also conduct training for staff and students alike to ensure that the new systems are running smoothly without any hiccups.
Professors must be able to access the on-line system to indicate which courses they will be teaching. They will also need to see which students signed up for their course offerings. In addition, the professors will be able to record the grades for the students in each class. Professor are advised to teach only 3 subjects per semester and need the Head of School approval if they have to teach more than the required number of subjects.
The Professors would also be able to recommend suitable candidates by merits for scholarships to continue their studies at an appropriate level.

§ Draw a low level Class Diagram depicting the registration system and explanation.
§ Draw an Activity Diagram with and without Swim lanes depicting the registration systems and explanation.
§ Draw a Sequence Diagram depicting the systems and explanation.
§ Problem encountered when designing this project.
§ References used.
§ Conclusion
Any special finding you have investigated worth mentioning should be added to give your report an extra edge.
You are also encouraged to add in pictures of the relevant categories that you could acquire either from the Net or newspapers cuttings.
Make your report as realistic as possible as we all know that this is just a fictional exercise.
All assignments should be submitted in a formal assignment format such as Introduction, Body, Conclusion etc.
Group assignment of minimum 2 and maximum 3. Report to me on “Sleepy Passengers”
Assignments must be handed in on time or at least on the stipulated date.
Extensions will only be given under exceptional circumstances and will only be granted if notification is received in writing.
Some reasons for not allowing extensions are:
· Extensions are unfair to those who have worked hard to deliver assignments on TIME.
· The lecturer cannot cover the solution until the last assignment has been handed in
· A late assignment in my subject would usually leads to late assignments in other subject, and leading to a deterioration in the quality of work submitted
· Rigid deadlines exist in the real working environment.
All assignment work should be substantially your own
Cheating or plagiarism will result in zero marks for the assignment, and may result in failing the subject or worse
All assignments must be A4 papers and bound firmly in the Project Report Cover clearly stated proper identification
