202122-COMP208 - Group Software Project

What to do? 

The best way to approach COMP208 is by starting from what needs to be done. Here's a short suggested plan of action (check the rest of this page for additional details of anything unclear):

• Set up Your Team. Make sure that your team is up and running right at the start of term. Look at the material in the pages on Teams,  Meetings (which are a useful way to work together) and Planning ...  Ask me or your project monitor if you are not sure. 
• Choose your Project. Once the team is formed you must decide on a project you want to work on. I put together a page providing an Introduction to this module, and what needs to be done. In particular few interesting project suggestions can be found here.
• Start the Actual Work. The first issue to think about is REQUIREMENTS: what scenario you want to look at? what do you want to do? The first deadline is in week 3. Have a look at the Requirements page. 
• The bulk of the IMPLEMENTATION comes after that. Useful videos and supporting material are provided in the Software Quality, Demos, Presentations, and Writing pages.
• The final part of term (approximately a couple of weeks) should be spent producing a full Design document, and finalising the Project Portfolio, providing further information about your work.
