Lab 1 - (Week of Sep 21)
SFWR ENG 3KO4 - Fall 2009
Software Development

• Due date
  • There are two due dates for this lab. The first is during the lab sections in the week of September 21 and the main due date is Friday October 2 at 4:00pm. The details are in the lab instructions below. Drop your SRS documents in the drop-in box that is assigned to your course: SE3KO4.
  
  
• 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 1 instructions and marking scheme is HERE.
  
  
• 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.
