UIT2201: CS & the IT Revolution
Class Project (Spring 2005)

Web-Emulation of a Cool Intelligent Appliance


About the UIT2201 Class Software Project

Software systems have revolutionalized the world -- in all aspects of our lives and they are becoming pervasive. It is best to learn about the revolution by experiencing it -- and in this course, we shall experience it by developing a software system ourselves.

The UIT Cool Intelligent Appliance project will be a group-based project in which the class will be divided into project teams. The project teams will work on different aspects of the system.

The project will be decomposed into several smaller and more manageable modules. The basics of each module will be discussed during tutorials (and with the teams concerned) at the appropriate time -- and the module will then be enhanced by the relevant teams.


Cool Intelligent Door (IDEA-v2)

For this semester, we will extend IDEA, a web-based intellgent door project started in Spring 2003. IDEA stands for Intelligent Door Emulation Application. The new version will be called IDEA-v2 and will add features (functionalities) to the existing IDEA software.

The new features and functionalities will mean that some of the existing IDEA software components (source programs, GUI (web-page-generators), database tables, etc) will have to be enhanced/modified, some new ones will have to be added. The details of these will be detailed elsewhere.
