Case study: Students and staff purchase ready to eat snack-foods such as chocolate bars, cookies, chips, drinks, etc. using an automated vending machine. Each snack-item has a price and a name. Any customer can buy an item, using funds available on the university identity card to pay for it. Cash payments are not allowed. The vending machine has a card reader. Customers tap their ID card against the card-reader. The card-reader reads the card and stores its details for the duration of the interaction. After the card is verified, the customer may choose the snack item and opt to buy it. The vending machine will verify that there is sufficient balance on the card to pay for the item and automatically deducts the amount towards the purchase of the snack-item if sufficient funds are available. The customer can buy as many items as they’d like. Task: Draw a sequence diagram depicting a successful sale scenario for the case study described above.

Course: Software Engineering A web based software for an online book store is to be developed when a valid customer logon to the site a list of available books is displayed. When the customer selects the required book a form will be displayed that will take input the credit card number and other necessary information of the user. After submission of the form by the customer the validity of the credit card is ensured by a banking system (external to the system). The valid orders are passed to the shipment department and an email is sent to the customer that his order is being shipped. Mention your brain storming as well before the drawing. Write four functional (user+system) requirements. Draw level 1 DFD of the given scenario. Draw ERD of the given scenario.

In some older homes that do not have a central heating and air conditioning system, smaller air conditioning units made to fit inside of a window and cool a single room are used as an alternative way to cool the home. Depending on the size of the room and the amount of shade that the room has, different sizes of air conditioning units must be used in order to be able to properly cool the room. The unit of measure for the amount of cooling that an air conditioner unit can provide is the BTU (British Thermal Unit) per hour. Code a program that will calculate the correct size of air conditioner for a specific room size using the instructions below. Step 1: Ask the user to enter the length of their room (in feet). Step 2: Ask the user to enter the width of their room (in feet). Step 3: Calculate the area (in square feet) of the room by multiplying the length and the width of the room. For example, if a room is 20 feet wide by 24 feet long, then its area is 20 * 24 = 480 square feet Step…

Computer Science A patient record and scheduling system in a doctor’s office is used by the receptionists, nurses, and doctors. The receptionists use the system to enter new patient information when first-time patients visit the doctor. They also schedule all appointments. The nurses use the system to record the results of each visit. This process includes entering some patient treatment information and prescriptions. The doctors may do that process, but most frequently they let the nurses do them. For each visit, free form text fields are used captures information on diagnosis and treatment. The nurses can also access the information to print out a history of patient visits. The doctors primarily use the system to view patient history. The system shall serve 1K users at a time and also it could be access through mobile phones, so it should support all different screen sizes. Identify two functional requirements and two non-functional requirements.
