Group Tasks

Task 1 (due on Feb. 25, 2008)

Create your project home on Google Code. Create the initial Wiki pages of item 1-6 described in the Group Project Checklist. Develop your project description and include which in the front page of your project home. Complete your application design and describe which in the ApplicationDesign wiki page. Provide at least one diagram (UML preferred) that explains the design.

Task 2 (due on Mar. 24, 2008)

Complete a "mock-up" implementation of your application. The purpose of a "mock-up" is to provide you an opportunity to seek feedbacks from your users, and also give you a "feel" of how much effort will be required to complete your final implementation. 

To complete this task, you as a team will deliver one or more HTML page views that demonstrate the key functional features of your application. There is no requirement on the number of HTML page views to deliver. Depending on the nature of your application, you may have one page or multiple pages. There is no requirement on how these HTML pages will be created. You may generate "mock-up" pages from WebWork actions or create "mock-up" pages in a static HTML file. You decide the kind of dynamic interactions you want to include in those "mock-up". 

When building those "mock-up" pages, plan how you may reuse them in your final implementation. The more you can use now, the less work you will have to do in the end. Design and plan ahead now can actually minimize your workload at the end. 

Don't submit HTML page views without any careful considerations. Don't submit just for the sake of completing this assignment.
