Assignment Brief and Guidance:
Internet of Things (IoT) in an Information System Project
Research Topic: The IoT has already started to impact on the day to day interactions we have with the
gadgets in our home (smart homes) our office (smart buildings) and in the local environment (smart
cities). Explore the ways this may further impact individuals and society both positively and negatively.
You are expected to carry out a small-scale research in order to explore the ways Internet of Things (IoT)
may impact individuals in an organization and society both positively and negatively from the standpoint
of a prospective computing professional.
IoT has already started to impact on the day to day interactions we have with the gadgets in our homes
(smart homes) and offices (smart buildings) and in the local environment (smart cities). The Internet of
Things (IoT) is the term which refers to the ever-growing network of physical objects with embedded
sensors which can connect together via Internet allowing communication to occur between these
objects and many other Internetenabled devices and systems. The IoT is quickly becoming a necessary
aspect of people’s daily working lives. Physical items can now sense and collect data which can be
controlled through digital and smart technology. The IoT extends internet connectivity beyond
traditional devices like desktop and laptop computers, smartphones and tablets to a diverse range of
devices that can utilise embedded technology such as security systems, thermostats, cars, electronic
appliances, lights, medical equipment etc. These devices, often called "connected" or "smart" devices,
can talk to other related devices (machine-to-machine (M2M) communication) and act on the
information they get from one another. Along with the many benefits there is also considerable concern
over the IoT which must be overcome in order to harness the power of this free flow of information.

Cost Management Plan
A value control plan is a way of strategizing the making plans and execution of a challenge`s budget.
Of course, that is executed so as to finish your challenge on time and on budget. However, with out a
right value control plan in place, each of these matters will falter—costing you and your agency
immensely.
What`s more, challenge fulfillment hinges on value control, as value is the number one figuring out
component for the fulfillment or failure of the challenge overall.
It includes
1.Cost baseline
2.Cost threshold
3.Level of precision
4.Earned value measurement
5.Three point estimation

Project Time Management
Project time control is the mission control system of studying paintings and growing a timeline to make
sure you entire a mission inside a selected schedule.
Projects are intimidating. There`s plenty to do, with typically little time or cash to do it. There`s no
room for mistakes, which may be highly-priced and time-consuming. Stakeholders like certainty—and
whilst you could`t promise them the whole thing will run like clockwork, you could in reality do your
quality to control time.
There are six steps while coping with mission time:
The time control steps above require enter out of your mission team, however additionally stakeholders
and different events concerned withinside the mission a good way to be as correct as possible. Your
mission time control plan isn't always static, and should be reviewed and revised at some stage in the
lifestyles cycle of the mission.
It has some major steps included in the process
1.Define activities
2.Sequence activities
3.Estimate resources
4.Estimate duration
5.Develop schedule
6.Control schedule
1.2 Produce a work breakdown structure and a Gantt chart to provide timeframes and stages for
completion
Work breakdown structure.
A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is a visual, hierarchical and deliverable-orientated deconstruction of a
mission. It is a useful diagram for mission managers as it permits them to interrupt down their mission scope
and visualize all of the duties required to finish their projects.
All the stairs of mission paintings are mentioned with inside the paintings breakdown shape chart, which
makes it an important mission making plans tool. Project managers use a WBS for plenty purposes, including
locating the crucial direction or developing a Gantt chart.
Project managers employ mission control software program to put out and execute a piece breakdown shape.
When utilized in aggregate with a Gantt chart that includes WBS degrees and venture hierarchies, mission
control software program may be particularly powerful for making plans, scheduling and executing projects.

A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is a chart where the project tasks are illustrated to
reflect their relations to each other and the project in general.
A Work Breakdown Structure WBS proposes a graphical nature that helps project managers predict
results based on various scenarios. It is often described as a result-oriented tree that covers all project
procedures in an organized way. However, WBS can also be displayed as a tabular list of tasks and
elements in Work Breakdown structure Gantt Charts.
Managers use WBS to break down their projects into easily manageable components. It’s easy to do
it using a Gantt Chart template. These components are further decomposed until a required person
from the team can be assigned.
5 reasons to create a Work Breakdown Structure:
It helps with the correct project organization.
It assists in describing the project scope to stakeholders.
It helps to distribute responsibilities.
It shows the project milestones and all the points to control.
It allows estimating costs, risks, and time correctly.
The example of a Work Breakdown Structure WBS
Let’s say, your task is to organize and manage a corporate outing or team building. Using WBS, you
can describe and divide tasks as follows and get a Work Breakdown Structure for event planning:
Planning
Supervision, budget planning, approval and reconciliation, coordination issues.
Catering
Menu, shopping, cooking, serving.
Area and activities
Area tables and chairs, utensils, decorations, and equipment.
Participants/guests
Invitations, guest list, RSPVs, special needs.
Staff
Drivers, cooks, servers, hosts, cleanup.
Entertainer
Invitation, logistic issues, playlist coordination.
Remember that it is much easier to plan and manage events with the help of event planning templates
and special event management software.
3. Create deliverables (end-results)
Outline all deliverables that must be completed within every phase. Your phases should have endresults. You need to achieve them before moving on to the next phase. Each deliverable should also
have its statement describing goals and functions.
4. Divide deliverables into manageable tasks
After creating the deliverables statements, it’s time to add another level of the hierarchy to count
details. The tasks of the project should be designed as sections. One team member or a small team
will be able to easily manage them.
5. Assign every section
The assignment of each manageable part is the last stage of the hierarchy. A required team member
will be responsible for a specific task. They will be involved in each section of work that will lead to
the corresponding results.
Why use a Work Breakdown Structure?
Working with WBS, you will find many essential advantages. The important point is that a project budget
can be allocated to the top stages of the breakdown system.
You can develop a budget and schedule by allocating costs and time estimation to specific sections of the
Work Breakdown Structure.
Here are just some benefits of using a WBS:
It shows all the work needed for project accomplishment.
It visualizes each member’s activity and their role in the whole project.
It helps communicate and collaborate on tasks.
It helps avoid changes and risks such as missed deadlines, scope creep, etc.
It contributes to cost estimation, resource allocation, and time management improvements.
Let’s define more advantages of WBS.
10 benefits of Work Breakdown Structure WBS for project managers
WBS has become popular and widely used in software development because of its benefits which project
managers can apply.
1. The increase in communication
It does not matter whether your project has an internal or external direction. A Work Breakdown Structure
includes communication acts on every step.
2. A field for creativity
It sounds like a stereotype but people think that software development is only an analytical area. You have
wide opportunities to develop your creative skills. While defining the project vision, the team members may
use WBS to offer creative steps for project development.
3. Focus on end-goals
WBS helps to keep all team members focused on the end-goal. It minimizes the chance that unnecessary
work is performed because the scope has been clearly defined.
4. Details organization
Every detail is carefully accounted, that is why nothing gets lost in the project.
5. Possible problems prevention
When the project is ready, some extra problems can occur. A Work Breakdown Structure helps to cut them
by taking into consideration all the details of the tasks before execution.
6. Brainstorming
Managers use the structure for brainstorming to find useful ideas and solutions. It’s easy to list all thoughts
and ideas and then scratch out the unnecessary ones.
7. Scheduling issues
With WBS, it becomes easy to identify which of the deliverables are falling behind your schedule. If some
issues fall behind, it becomes obvious where changes need to be implemented.
8. Risk management
If you use WBS, you mitigate and manage risks from the beginning. It anticipates all requirements and
allocates resources: money, time, and labor.
9. Tasks allocation
When you broke down your project into manageable tasks, it becomes easier to assign these tasks to
required people.
10. Flexibility for different teams
The Work Breakdown Structure WBS is used in different environments and fields. It does not matter how
large the team is. The WBS Structure will always support project execution.
It also may be a great tool for customer engagement. It shows them the internal atmosphere and helps to
understand the processes better.
Who can use WBS?
Usually, managers use the structure in commercial, residential, and construction projects. It gives investors
and customers a better understanding of everything that goes into the project development.
However, the scope of its application is really wide.
Software development, for example, is performed by taking a vision and creates it based on a list of
requirements. It imparts WBS the features of the ideal tool for software development.
If we try to classify the teams who may use WBS tools, we can get the following list:
Creative teams
Creative people appreciate this breakdown system because it allows them to brainstorm together.
Technical teams
Technically focused team members like WBS for its keeping an analytical perspective of project scope of
work and its progression.
Teams that work directly with customers
The WBS structure is really good for specialists who develop software for clients because it meets
their needs. It also helps increase customer confidence in your team.
Internal projects teams
Remote teams
WBS and Gantt charts: improve the planning process.
A Gantt chart is the best way to break down your project into lots of manageable tasks.
For example, in GanttPRO Gantt chart tool you can create as many projects as you need with unlimited
number of tasks.
Moreover, each task can consist of subtasks making a group of tasks out of it. Therefore, you can create a
visual Gantt chart timeline that shows a WBS of your project. By the way, you can compare a Gantt chart
vs. WBS
Ganttchart
Project Quality Management
One of the maximum crucial elements of Quality making plans is the status quo of fine metrics. Project
managers need to move past the conventional metrics of scope, time, and cost. It is vital to hyperlink a
assignment to the strategic goals of the company, organization, or commercial enterprise unit. As stated
withinside the article, Project Management & Six Sigma, Use Six Sigma Methods for Better Project Results
(Rever, 2006) the assignment supervisor`s efforts on any assignment she or he is handling have to bring
about a few sort of development for the commercial enterprise.
Ultimately, that is why a assignment is in existence – to make a few a part of the commercial enterprise
better. To display development calls for measurement. If a assignment supervisor desires energetic interest,
participation, and aid from key sponsors, it's miles important to hyperlink the assignment to a few metric of
significance to the commercial enterprise.
A degree the sponsor is accountable for is an smooth manner to technique this linkage. Perhaps a metric the
sponsor owns, which includes order accuracy, processing time, or turnaround time could be progressed via
way of means of the assignment. If the assignment supervisor can hyperlink his or her assignment to a degree
the sponsor need to record out on on the inevitable month-to-month outcomes meeting, she or he is in all
likelihood to have all the aid they want for the duration of the existence of the assignment. A key issue of
fine making plans is for the assignment supervisor to recognize the strategies his or her assignment is
impacting.
The assignment supervisor need to then increase manner measures for the assignment as a way to degree the
effect of endorsed modifications to the ones impacted strategies.
Project risk management plan
Project hazard control is the method of identifying, studying and responding to any hazard that arises over
the lifestyles cycle of a task to assist the task continue to be on the right track and meet its goal.
Risk control isn`t reactive only; it have to be a part of the making plans method to parent out hazard that
would appear withinside the task and the way to manipulate that hazard if it in reality occurs.
A hazard is whatever that might probably effect your task`s timeline, overall performance or budget. Risks
are potentialities, and in a task control context, in the event that they end up realities, they then end up
categorized as “problems” that need to be addressed.
So hazard control, then, is the method of identifying, categorizing, prioritizing and making plans for dangers
earlier than they end up problems.
Risk control can imply various things on one of a kind forms of projects. On large-scale projects, hazard
control techniques would possibly consist of vast targeted making plans for every hazard to make certain
mitigation techniques are in area if problems arise. For smaller projects, hazard control would possibly imply
a simple, prioritized listing of high, medium and occasional precedence dangers.

2.2 Evaluate the project’s management process and appropriate research methodologies
applied, the accuracy and reliability of different research methods applied for the small
scale research
What is Project Management Process?
Project control method is an management method for the making plans and manipulate of the offerings or
the implementation of a assignment. This method beginns after the approval with the aid of using the
customer, is primarily based totally at the contract, and is focused at the preliminary values of the method
and the overall control of a assignment.\
When it involves the sports of task control, there are lots. However, those lots of task control sports may be
labeled into 5 most important approaches.
Let`s have a study the 5 most important task control approaches in detail.
1 - Project Initiation
Project initiation is the start line of any mission. In this procedure, all of the sports associated with
prevailing a mission takes region. Usually, the primary pastime of this section is the pre-sale.
During the pre-sale period, the carrier issuer proves the eligibility and cappotential of finishing the mission
to the purchaser and sooner or later wins the business. Then, it's miles the particular necessities amassing
which comes next.
During the necessities amassing pastime, all of the purchaser necessities are accrued and analysed for
implementation. In this pastime, negotiations can also additionally take region to alternate sure necessities
or cast off sure necessities altogether.
Usually, mission initiation procedure ends with necessities sign-off.
2
- Project Planning
Project making plans is one of the most important mission control processes. If the mission control group
receives this step wrong, there might be heavy poor effects for the duration of the following stages of the
mission.
Therefore, the mission control group will need to pay particular interest to this procedure of the mission.
In this procedure, the mission plan is derived with a view to cope with the mission necessities such as,
necessities scope, finances and timelines. Once the mission plan is derived, then the mission agenda is
developed.
Depending at the finances and the agenda, the assets are then allotted to the mission. This section is the
maximum critical section in relation to mission fee and effort.
3 - Project Execution
After all office work is done, on this phase, the undertaking control executes the undertaking to be able to
gain undertaking objectives.
When it involves execution, every member of the group includes out their very own assignments
withinside the given cut-off date for every activity. The unique undertaking time table might be used for
monitoring the undertaking development.
During the undertaking execution, there are numerous reporting sports to be done. The senior control of the
business enterprise would require each day or weekly fame updates at the undertaking development.
In addition to that, the consumer can also need to music the development of the undertaking. During the
undertaking execution, it's miles a need to to music the attempt and fee of the undertaking to be able to
decide whether or not the undertaking is progressing withinside the proper course or not.
In addition to reporting, there are a couple of deliveries to be made at some point of the undertaking
execution. Usually, undertaking deliveries aren't onetime deliveries made on the cease of the undertaking.
Instead, the deliveries are scattered thru out the undertaking execution length and introduced upon agreed
timelines.
3
- Control and Validation
During the task existence cycle, the task sports have to be very well managed and validated. The
controlling may be especially finished with the aid of using adhering to the preliminary protocols along
with task plan, great warranty check plan and verbal exchange plan for the task.
Sometimes, there may be times that aren't protected with the aid of using such protocols. In such cases, the
task supervisor have to use good enough and vital measurements to be able to manage such situations.
Validation is a assisting pastime that runs from first day to the ultimate day of a task. Each and each
pastime and shipping have to have its personal validation standards to be able to affirm the a hit final
results or the a hit completion.
When it involves task deliveries and requirements, a separate group called `great warranty group' will help
the task group for validation and verification functions.
4
- Closeout and Evaluation
Once all of the assignment necessities are achieved, it's time handy over the applied gadget and closeout
the assignment. If the assignment deliveries are in par with the recognition standards described through the
client, the assignment could be duly usual and paid through the customer.
Once the assignment closeout takes place, it's time to assess the whole assignment. In this assessment, the
errors made through the assignment group could be diagnosed and could take essential steps to keep away
from them withinside the destiny projects.
During the assignment assessment process, the carrier issuer might also additionally be aware that they
haven`t received the predicted margins for the assignment and might have surpassed the timelines
deliberate on the beginning.
In such cases, the assignment isn't a 100% fulfillment to the carrier issuer. Therefore, such times must be
studied cautiously and must take essential moves to keep away from withinside the destiny.

Advantages of doing a research
No remember what profession subject you`re in or how excessive up you are, there`s continually extra to
learn. The identical applies in your private life. No remember what number of reports you've got got or how
various your social circle, there are belongings you don`t know. Research unlocks the unknowns, helps you
to discover the sector from exclusive perspectives, and fuels a deeper understanding. In a few areas, studies
is an crucial a part of success. In others, it could now no longer be truly necessary, however it has many
benefits. Here are ten motives why studies is important:
Lets see some benefits of doing a research
1.
Research expands your expertise base
The maximum apparent purpose to do studies is that you`ll research greater. There`s constantly greater to
study a subject, even in case you are already well-versed in it. If you aren`t, studies permits you to construct
on any non-public enjoy you've got got with the subject. The procedure of studies opens up new possibilities
for gaining knowledge of and growth.
2.
Research offers you the modern statistics
Research encourages you to discover the maximum current statistics available. In sure fields, mainly clinical
ones, there`s constantly new statistics and discoveries being made. Staying up to date prevents you from
falling at the back of and giving information that`s faulty or doesn`t paint the entire picture. With the modern
information, you`ll be higher ready to speak approximately a topic and construct on thoughts.
3.
Research facilitates you realize what you`re up against
In enterprise, you`ll have competition. Researching your competition and what they`re as much as facilitates
you formulate your plans and strategies. You can determine out what units you apart. In different forms of
studies, like medicine, your studies may pick out diseases, classify symptoms, and provide you with methods
to address them. Even if your “enemy” isn`t an real man or woman or competitor, there`s constantly a few
form of antagonist pressure or hassle that studies let you deal with.
4.
Research builds your credibility
People will take what you've got got to mention greater critically while they could inform you`re
knowledgeable. Doing studies offers you a strong basis on which you may construct your thoughts and
evaluations. You can communicate with self belief approximately what you realize is correct. When you`ve
accomplished the studies, it`s plenty more difficult for a person to poke holes in what you`re saying. Your
studies must be centered at the quality sources. If your “studies” includes evaluations from non-experts, you
won`t be very credible. When your studies is right, though, humans are much more likely to pay attention
5.
Research facilitates you chop your scope
When you`re circling a subject for the primary time, you may not be precisely certain wherein to begin. Most
of the time, the quantity of labor in advance of you is overwhelming. Whether you`re writing a paper or
formulating a enterprise plan, it`s essential to slender the scope at a few point. Research facilitates you pick
out the maximum precise and/or essential topics. You can select the topics that healthy quality with the
venture and its goals
Take a brief path on studies
Understanding Research Methods (SOAS University of London)
How to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper (École Polytechnique)
Research for Impact (Oxfam)
Quantitative and Qualitative Research for Beginners (NUS)
6.
Research teaches you higher discernment
Doing a whole lot of studies facilitates you sift thru low-excellent and incredible statistics. The greater studies
you do on a subject, the higher you`ll get at discerning what`s correct and what`s now no longer. You`ll
additionally get higher at discerning the grey regions wherein statistics can be technically accurate however
used to attract questionable conclusions.
7.
Research introduces you to new thoughts
You can also additionally have already got evaluations and thoughts approximately a subject while you begin
researching. The greater you studies, the greater viewpoints you`ll come across. This encourages you to
entertain new thoughts and possibly take a better examine yours. You may alternate your thoughts
approximately some thing or, at least, determine out the way to role your thoughts because the quality ones.
8.
Research facilitates with hassle-solving
Whether it`s a non-public or expert hassle, it facilitates to appearance outdoor your self for assist. Depending
on what the difficulty is, your studies can awareness on what others have accomplished before. You may
simply want greater statistics, so that you could make an knowledgeable plan of assault and an
knowledgeable decision. When you realize you`ve amassed right statistics, you`ll sense plenty greater
assured for your solution.
9.
Research facilitates you attain humans
Research is used to assist increase focus of problems like weather alternate, racial discrimination, gender
inequality, and greater. Without difficult records, it`s very hard to show that weather alternate is getting
worse or that gender inequality isn`t progressing as fast because it must. The public wishes to recognise what
the records are, so that they have a clean concept of what “getting worse” or “now no longer progressing”
virtually means. Research additionally involves going past the uncooked statistics and sharing real-lifestyles
testimonies which have a greater non-public effect on humans.
10. Research encourages interest
Having interest and a love of gaining knowledge of take you a ways in lifestyles. Research opens you as
much as one of a kind evaluations and new thoughts. It additionally builds discerning and analytical skills.
The studies procedure rewards interest. When you`re devoted to gaining knowledge of, you`re constantly in
an area of growth. Curiosity is likewise right on your health. Studies display interest is related to better tiers
of positivity, higher pleasure with lifestyles, and decrease anxiety.
Own learning of this project and research
This project allowed me to study about the IoT technology and made interest to continue further. I was able
to understand the basics first and simply develop step by step. I went through the projects that have been
made thorugh IoT and it made be amused of the power of IoT.beacuse there is even a outspace satellite built
using IoT technology in the near past.So it will be a very good move if we can make the IoT understandable
to all students who are in the It field.ioT has great future and it will lead them to great places.
Also I learned how to do a research in aproper manner that has been standardized all over the world. I came
across the follow the steps and see the results based on observation and data analysis. Data analysis also one
of the gains I got from this project. Data analysis is huge.Everthing should start from there.Doing a research
and data analysis before starting any project will helpth successfully carry on and complete the projects.
I learned to work with the timelines since the planned activities of the project should be done on timeline.
There are many own learnings that I learned from this project and I have mentioned some of them above
Decision Making Progress
The notion system of choosing the logical preference from the to be had options.
When seeking to make a terrific decision, someone have to weigh the professionals and cons of every
alternative and remember all feasible alternatives. In order to make powerful decisions, someone can expect
the final results of every preference, and primarily based totally on all of those items, we will decide which
alternative is first-rate for that unique situation.
And decision-making helped every of those forces to reap higher results; The system of accumulating data,
designing the machine, validating it, re-tuning it, and selecting the system of drawing up the organized new
machine to the patron has made a massive contribution.
This gave us the final conclusion
This has caused the task control plan, getting new resolutions in our studies, and executing the task we have
already got withinside the first-rate feasible manner. With the Project Management Plan we've the first-rate
manner to finish this studies at a decrease fee than the prevailing task.
Provides course for the making plans system The making plans system offers responsibility Planning manner
ok assets Problems expectation and lively deal with Shared assets and honest division
Employee understanding and a developing expertise base Reliable forecasts of time limits and budgets
Employee Capability Innovation
The making plans system offers the task final touch Review of classes learned
These are the blessings to be had to folks that do studies thru a task control plan.
