The information system should support or service an area with which you are familiar. For example, develop parts of an information system for managing information about a personal interest, a hobby, school, work, etc. Some possible types of information systems (IS) include</p><p> Work related  Customer IS  Employee IS  Accounting IS  Marketing IS</p><p> Hobby or interest related  Baseball IS  Football IS  Cooking IS  Gardening IS  Music IS  Travel IS</p><p> School related  Library IS  Student IS  Course IS</p><p>Minimum requirements for a grade of C follow:  a data dictionary  two physical files/tables  two logical files/tables (one with a join operation)  two QUERY/400 applications (one with a join operation)  one batch COBOL program that uses a COBOL table for decoding  a project report (described on the following page)  comments in programs</p><p>For higher grades, include some or all of the following  a COBOL table accessed with a range search  a COBOL table accessed with a Binary search  more than one batch program  a sequential file update program  multiple reports from a program  more than two physical files  more than two logical files  more than two queries CIS 3741 Project project.doc Business Programming page 2 of 2</p><p>You may work individually, or in groups of two or three students. It is expected that the scope of group projects will exceed that of individual projects. Students working with a partner should submit a joint report, rather than separate reports. CIS 3741 Project project.doc Business Programming page 3 of 2</p><p>Prepare a report to describe the design and implementation of your system. The report must be placed in some type of small binder. The format of the report follows:  Title Page:  Class name  Name of your IS  Your name  Date  Table of Contents  Section 1: Executive Summary  An executive summary providing a one page typed narrative that describes what your system does  Section 2: Files  Names and descriptions of all physical and logical files  Record layouts that graphically illustrate the record formats stored in each physical and logical file  Section 3: Tables  Names and descriptions of all tables  Section 4: Reports  Report layouts for all batch reports from COBOL programs or from QUERY/400 applications  Section 5: Operating Instructions  Instructions on how to run the system  Appendix A: Test Data  Printouts of all records in each physical and logical file  Appendix B: Sample Output  Printouts of the reports produced by all COBOL programs and QUERY/400 applications  Appendix C: Compilations and Definitions  Compiler output for all physical and logical files  Compiler output for all COBOL programs  Definitions for QUERY/400 applications</p><p>DUE DATES and TIMES Executive Summary Monday, October 27, 5:10 p.m. (Section 1) Data dictionary Wednesday, November 5, at 5:10 p.m. Files (Section 2) Demonstrate Project At start of final exam period.
