- Responses to user questionnaires are analysed.
As a result you should start form a place of a poorly structured set of requirements. You should use a technique to move to a more structured document.
Glossary
One way to rewrite the specification is to construct a glossary of terms. This will provide:
| Term | Definition | Synonyms |
|---|---|---|
Purpose of Assignment 2
The purpose of Assignment 2 is to analyse the data present in Assignment 1 to create the structure of a database.
- You should work in groups to complete the data model.
- You will proceed by view aggregation, producing one ER model (or EER if appropriate) conceptualising the view for each of at least 3 user categories you have identified.
- Aim at creating 4 to 5 user stories for each user.
- You will then design the relations tables which map the ER model.
Deliverable.
You will produce a PDF document with your report.
