Question 4 Open source software is developed software with source code that is publicly available, under an open source license, andis open for anyone to study, change, and improve its design. If a company adopts this approach for software development,discuss the issues concerned with licensing of this software. Question 5 A prototype is an initial version of a software system that is used to demonstrate concepts, try out design options, and findout more about the problem and its possible solutions. Discuss this concept in detail outlining the benefits as well as theprocess activities. Question 6 Requirements engineering is a systems and software engineering process which covers all the activities involved indiscovering, documenting and maintaining a set of requirements for a computer-based system.

Compliance with software accessibility standards is, with a few exceptions, optional and voluntary on the side of the company selling the programme. However, complying with these accessibility standards requires a software company to invest more money in additional development. Companies that comply with these standards will be at a competitive disadvantage unless the costs are compensated. How can a software manufacturer increase revenue by adhering to accessibility standards?
Donation is an act of compassion, where an individual who has financially more than enough of what he or she needs contributes a part of his or her surplus income for the fulfilment of the needs of those who are less capable. The majority of NGOs has experienced difficulties in getting funds or other required things. Getting donor is a very hard task, and sometime dealing with some donor’s conditions can be a big challenge for NGOs to fulfil it. This donation management system will help NGOs to find donors easily. This system has three modules namely, Administration, NGO and Donor. Admin can login using credentials and manage the request raised by NGO by approving or rejecting it. Approval will be done after verifying the NGO documents uploaded by NGO. Admin will get the report of NGOs who get donations. NGOs can register and raise request by uploading NGO documents. Once admin gets the approval, they can login using credentials. NGO can raise request in need to the various registered…

Software development requirements for a small bed & breakfast reservation system You are asked to build a small reservation system for a new bed & breakfast (B&B) business. The business owners are John and Jane who are starting their B&B business in a small New England town. John and Jane want a software system that balances reasonable development cost, timely delivery, software quality, and functionality. John and Jane will have four bedrooms for guests with varying features and prices. They have one room with a private bath, and it is the most expensive room. They also have a room with a lake view which is moderately priced. The other two rooms are normal rooms and are the least expensive. They want a system to manage the reservations and corresponding payments. To cut costs, John and Jane want to be the only users of the system and will not allow guests to make their own reservations. When a potential customer calls for a reservation, they will check the…
Computer Science You have been hired as a systems analyst to work with two other analysts. Your task is to document the functional requirements of the Australian Tax Office (ATO) in UML. In a typical learning environment, assignments are often based on hypothetical case studies, like those in the tutorials. Such case studies are limiting because you have little opportunity to investigate how authentic computer systems work, thus making it difficult to appreciate the complexity of an authentic system, the need for analysis and the usefulness of analysis tools. We hope that by investigating an authentic system you will appreciate the importance of analysis and the role of UML as a communication and analysis tool. During the analysis stage, UML is used to specify systems requirements, which will be used to design a computer system. In this assignment, we will use UML to document a system that has already been computerised – like reverse engineering a system (from an existing computer…
Professional and Scientific Staff Management (PSSM) is a unique type of temporary staffing agency. Many organizations today hire highly skilled technical employees on a short‐term, temporary basis to assist with special projects or to provide a needed technical skill. PSSM negotiates contracts with its client companies in which it agrees to provide temporary staff in specific job categories for a specified cost. For example, PSSM has a contract with an oil and gas exploration company, in which it agrees to supply geologists with at least a master’s degree for $5,000 per week. PSSM has contracts with a wide range of companies and can place almost any type of professional or scientific staff members, from computer programmers to geologists to astrophysicists. When a PSSM client company determines that it will need a temporary professional or scientific employee, it issues a staffing request against the contract it had previously negotiated with PSSM. When a staffing request is received…
1. You have been asked to work as a usability consultant for a company where the development team has created a new version of an existing product. Three important requirements were that the new user interface should be efficient, intuitive and attractive. a. How would you interpret these requirements in the light of your knowledge of Human Computer Interaction? b. The development team claim that their new user interface is more efficient than the old one. Explain in detail how you could measure whether this claim is justified. c. The developers also claim that their new version is already more intuitive than the old one. Explain in detail how you could measure whether this claim is justified.

As an independent consultant, you have a contract with a university to develop an application to support course administration. Read the detailed description of this application and then complete the tasks that follow. A course has a unique course number and title and is assigned to one or more areas of the Computer Science program. Each course has an instructor, at least one teaching or research assistant, an online discussion forum, a delivery period (start date, end date), and a capacity (maximum number of participants). A course need not be offered each term, but the challenge option is open throughout the entire year. A course may have prerequisite courses, and a student is not allowed to register for a course if they have not fulfilled the prerequisites or their equivalent. In addition, a student who would like to challenge a course should have the course prerequisites or authorization from the course instructor. An instructor has an employee number, first name, last name,…
