The second progress report and presentation should complete two thirds of the total work from the feasibility study.

If you are following an iterative process this progress report should mark a major milestone when you can report visible progress to your client.

If you are following a modified waterfall process, this progress report will be the completion of the design phase. You should probably have already begun implementation.

The exact form of the report is up to you, but it should be well written and suitable to present to your client. In writing a design report, pay particular attention to the following:

  • The report must be understandable by the client.
  • The design should include both system and program design.
  • Design concepts must be clearly separated from requirements and the implementation.
  • Update your schedule to confirm that you will have an operational system by the end of the semester.

Assignment 4. final presentation

The final presentation and report will follow the same format as the others. You will make a 45 minute presentation to the client, the Instructor and the Teaching Assistant assigned to your project. Remember that everybody is expected to be a presenter at least once during the semester.

This presentation should describe to the client and the course team what has been accomplished during the semester and should include a demonstration of your system in operation. The documentation should be a complete hand-over package, which has been entered into your project management system, so that the client's staff can put your project into production, extend and maintain it.

nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.
