SFWR ENG 3KO4 / 3MO4
Software Development For Computer / Electrical Engineering
Fall 2005 Lab 3 - (Week of Oct 3)

• Due date
  • There are two due dates for this lab. The first is during the lab sections in the week of October 3 and the main due date is in the week of October 10 at 2:00pm on the day that you have your lab section. The details are in the lab instructions below. Drop your SRS document in one of the course drop-in boxes.
  
  
• Goals
  • Practice on "requirement elicitation activity" through interview with the customer (owner of a business) in order to produce the "Software Requirement Specification (SRS)" document for the system to be developed.
  
  
• Schedule
  • Time slots for 15 minutes interview in the lab location with the TAs (as customres):   schedule.xls
  
  
• Instructions
  • A full description of the lab 3 instructions and marking scheme have been provided. Please click HERE to obtain the PDF file of the instructions.
  
  
• Details
  • A banking organization intend to reduce the load of work on their teller staff in their branches by installing new "Automated Banking Machines (ABM)" that will interact with the bank customres and automatically perform simple banking transactions. The bank managers have provided a "Request For Proposal (RFP)" for different software companies (groups of students) that briefly describes the type of services they require. In this RFP, the bank managers have identified a set of services to be automated as well as the specification of the ABM system hardware to be used. The task of each group of software engineers is to identify the details of the ABM services through interview meetings with the bank managers and then produce a software specification document accoring to a specific format that is a simplified version of the IEEE SRS template.
  
  
• Example
  • An example of SRS for a Thermostat System have been provided. Please click HERE to get the PDF file.
  
  
• Deliverables
  Hard copy of the Software Requrement Specification (SRS) document prepared according to the modified version of the IEEE SRS template.
