UK Enterprise Web Software Development Introduction of the University of Hartvak The University of Hartvak (UoH) is large university in London This university was established in the year of 1977 The UoH provides the best educations and the most standard educational degrees for students Since, it is a large educational sector in London, it has mainly different streamed faculties They are IT, English, Biology, Engineering and Architecture faculties The population of the UoH is approximately 11,000 of students including both undergraduate and postgraduate students Recently the UoH required a web-enabled role-based system in order to increase the university productivity and for the improvement Introduction to the Project Nowadays, the technology has immensely been increased With the involvement of technology, the manual procedures are being automated and functions as computerized systems The majority of the universities and companies uses fully automated systems This leads to make the work effective and efficient When considering the present universities, almost all the universities has their own systems to proceed with whatever their procedures For example, students’ registrations, lecturers’ salary generations, lecture hours scheduling, students’ attendance, students’ evaluation results generation and etc all of these processes are being automated throughout an entire system The University of Hartvak requires a secure web-enabled role-based system which can also be accessed by a mobile device, in order to increase the productivity and for the improvements of the university This idea is much advantageous and beneficial because all students and staff members can get registered to the site and produce their own ideas or comments Moreover, since this is not a much complex task to everybody can register and proceed accordingly Page Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich - UK Enterprise Web Software Development When describing about the requirements specification, there are number of requirements to be included while the system is in development stage The main objective is to provide the ability for the students and staff to provide their ideas in the site Those use groups can also provide their opinions by a thumb-up or a thump-down for the commented comments Here, the user groups have different privileges when dealing though the site, where students cannot view staff comments and only staff can view students and staff both user groups’ comments Moreover, there are more user group levels such as a quality assurance manager, the quality assurance coordinators and an administrator Here, the quality assurance manager can control and oversee the entire running of the system and all the departments And, the QA coordinators are being assigned to control and to oversee only their relevant departments Lastly, the administrator can proceed with all the modifications and all the functions with the entire system Covering all these requirements the website URL and the screencast will show, how the system will be functioned And all the other tasks included in the group report are linked below and in order to access all the tasks in the email drive, the email credentials are given below Page Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich -

UK Enterprise Web Software Development Evaluation for the Productive Outcome Table 2: Evaluation for the Productive Outcome Objective: Similar university sites researches Task: Make researches on similar sites via internet in order to get clear idea on how the new system looks like Deliverables: Get a better idea on what the system is based on, how the system should look like and what the system should include Objective: Analyzing the requirements for the new university system Task: Collecting the right requirements by conducting requirement gathering techniques Deliverable: Get a better knowledge on what exactly the client requires Objective: New system designing Task: Designing the new system structure using UML diagrams, ER diagrams, wireframes and so on Deliverable: Makes it easy in developing the system Objective: New system development Task: Coding the program using an editor to bring the system into real word Deliverable: To produce a system which functions according to the gather reequipments Objective: New system testing Task: Creating a test schedule and test cases Deliverable: Test results and to get an error free system Objective: New system implementation Task: Finding the right hardware and software to run the new system Deliverable: To make sure the system operates within the implementation location Objective: New system maintenance Task: Creating a user manual for the new system Deliverable: To carry out the duties within the system in a correct manner Page Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich - UK Enterprise Web Software Development Use of the Project Since, the world has immensely evolved, the technology has also parallelly increased The majority of the people are so much on to the technology, where they interact with new inventions and new innovations Most of the business organizations such as software firms, hospitals, banks, universities and etc the most of these firms consists of automated systems where they eliminate the manual procedures Using automated systems, it makes the work load to be carried out much effectively and efficiently When considering the newly implemented web-enabled roles-based system of the University of Hartvak, it is much more important and considerable, because it eliminates the manual procedures and functions many functionalities from that system, instead of having many categorized manual procedures Since the new system can cover an extensive number of requirements, it is also much easier for the users to handle many situations from that single system itself For example, providing comments, registration, liking, communications and so on In addition to that, the site is a well secured system where only the relevant person can see his or her personal information Therefore, on the other hand this system provides a well secured access as well So mainly, this system is implemented in order to increase the productivity and the improvement of the university including the above-mentioned points as well Page 10 Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich -

UK Enterprise Web Software Development The above table shows the team performance and how they contributed to the project I have calculated each person’s tasks by maximum 10 points And since there are 12 tasks, I have multiplied the number of tasks (12) by 10 And, rated for 120% in overall Team Contribution throughout the Project The team has decided to divided the work load, majorly into sprints and allocate the team members in the sprints Moreover, we have allocated scrum meeting for each sprint of the project This makes easy for the team members in carrying out the meeting on the relevant sprint only Below shows a detailed summary on how the team members contributed individually in my point of view In the 1st sprint there were tasks to be completed in 13 days They are, making researches on similar websites, analyzing the right requirements, sketching the rich picture, getting the requirements specification and then prioritize all the requirements according to MoSCoW prioritization and drawing wireframes of certain interfaces In consideration of researching similar sites, all the team members were engaged on that task and did different researches on similar sites Here, all the team members were able to get the most similar sites and to get a clear idea on how the system should look like and its content Since, I am the requirement analyzer I had to get the right requirement Therefore, I was able to get all the right requirements on time and to provide them to Tharuka who was the information architect He did a good job in prioritizing the requirements according to MoSCoW prioritization Since, we had a limited time duration, Tharuka was able to provide the prioritized requirement on time to the system developer Rich picture and wireframes were drawn by Viyasika who the front-end web designer was She also did a great job in analyzing the similar site and get a clear idea on how the wireframes should be drawn by herself She contributed greatly in all the other sprints where she had to draw wireframes Same with the rich picture drawn by Viyasika In the 2nd sprint it is all about designing the system’s structure There are tasks to be completed from 12 days Drawing UML diagrams, Database designing / developing, ERD, drawing wireframes, web designing and testing were the tasks Here, the UML diagrams were drawn by Viyasika and Tharuka where other members also gave them a Page 15 Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich - UK Enterprise Web Software Development support They designed it on time so that here also it is easy to start the development The use case diagram was given lately since there were many areas to be clarified But, this wasn’t a big issue since the use case diagram was handed over before the 2nd sprint ends The database side was totally handled by Tharuka where everything was done perfectly He drew the ERD and he decided how the system database should look like and what it should consist In certain areas Tharuka was unable to contact via online to check his updates But it wasn’t an issue since he completed his task before the nd sprint ends Jason was another good team player where he was responsible in designing the website He was mainly stressed with his office matters but amidst those, he was able to complete the design of web on time and gather the team to illustrate his updates Fathima also provide the fullest support in testing responsive in that relevant sprint In sprints and 4, the tasks are same but the contents of the tasks changes Both have the development of CMS and a testing part Here, the mainly included team members are Jason and Fathima Once, Jason completed the development, Fathima was able to test the developed sessions accordingly Therefore, in the 3rd and 4th sprints, the tasks were run in a smooth manner covering days in each sprint, altogether 18 days The last sprint is the 5th sprint In this task, there were tasks to be completed within 12 days of time duration They are, implementation, user acceptance testing and the entire documentation In this sprint the implementation was done by Jason He sorted out the necessary software, hardware specifications and decided how to implement it He selected the most effective and efficient specifications for the implementation Moreover, Fathima carried out the user acceptance testing and she was also assigned for that role because she acted as the product owner, where the product owner does the user acceptance testing by the client’s party The documentation was completely done by me and Viyasika we had many discussions on how to proceed with the documentation Here, we did the documentation in a systematic manner where each and every point is clear for the reader to understand In overall, all the team members did a great job in completing this project on time There were no critical issues on members when dealing with them throughout the project, since all the team members had a better understanding and the gravity of this project Page 16 Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich - UK Enterprise Web Software Development Self-Evaluation throughout the Project I was the scrum master, the team leader, the requirement analyzer and the documenter Since I acted for roles and responsibilities, I understood how I contributed in all the responsibilities When considering me as the scrum master and the team leader, I was able to oversee the entire running of the project and how to get the work done by the other team members in a motivative manner And whenever members question me on different issues, the way I gave them the right response, I thing I managed very well as a scrum master and a team leader to lead the team in achieving the goal Moreover, whenever the other members had different issues, I conducted meetings, so that it makes easier for them to clarify their doubts As the scrum master I also created the Gantt chart meeting minutes and etc to get proofs of all what we did Analyzing the requirements was another task done by me, where I specified only the required requirements I was able to get all the requirements and explain to the team members that this is what the university requires Therefore, there also I was able to give them the correct idea on what requirements the system should include Lastly, I had to handle with a section of the documentation, since the other part was covered by Viyasika I have included all what the document should consist And also, this is documented in systematic format where the reader can understand what I have included here Page 17 Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich -

UK Enterprise Web Software Development Future Enhancement The system was successfully being developed and implemented But, there are certain areas where the new system cannot cover certain requirements For example, there should be an Android application for the users to use it then and there once they have installed it It is a better enhancement for the user to use the system via an application likewise, because the user can directly access it Facebook is also another social media website where the majority of people have their accounts created Therefore, in such situation it is very advantageous to link a Facebook page to the new system so that the students and staff can also rate via Facebook and any other person interested can join to the university once they see the university ratings and comments Conclusion This newly implemented system includes almost all the requirements required from the UoH It is a pleasure that the system functions accordingly and with errors free In consideration of the individual report, it also consists of most of the tasks included in the group report All the required tasks are being linked in the Appendix-A This report includes specially an evaluation of the other team members on how they did contribute in working with the project until the final phase I was a better experience and a better opportunity to develop my skills of leading, organizing, controlling and etc In conclusion I feel very much satisfied in the completion of the group project successfully and to handover the system to the University of Hartvak Page 20 Hashara EDIRIWEERA | 001028024 | COMP1640 | University of Greenwich -
