Brief client overview Our client is Kim Holdbrook, a massage therapist that works at SPA Saint-James on the weekends and from home during a part of the week. The system being developed will be used by a single user, has to be protected and available only to the client. Because there will be only one user, the program has to be adapted only for her needs regarding her incapacity to see. She is comfortable using a computer keyboard and short cuts, and has a program that reads out loud any text displayed. Even pictures, when coded appropriately are described to the client with the JAWS Speech program. Systems Development 4 Meetings Team Yellow will have most of their meetings in class, and the rest outside of course. Specifically we will have verbal meetings in class to discuss our individual progress and see where changes need to be make to make the project successful. The meetings outside of class will take place Friday after school since we all finish early and don’t have anything afterwards. They will involve comparison of work to see where our work is going on the table and how it’s coming together. If there is a day where one or more of us can’t make it that day, we will simply reschedule on another day where we are all available. Online Repositories For storing our information, we decided on three different places to keep our work online: Google Code, Facebook, and our personal emails. With three different places, each group member will have access to the first two places so we can all be on the same page. the third one; being our emails, so that in case the other two are compromised, we will at least have our individual parts to back up so we don’t have to start from scratch. Communications Strategy The strategy is simple but effective, we are using the first two online storage locations, and they can also be used as a means of communication. The email can be used to communicate if the members are not in a hurry, but if they are in a hurry and is not available right away, then there is always the good old fashion telephone, a device used to communicate live while actually hearing each other’s voices. Systems Development 5 Lab work vs. Homework During the lab, we will discuss the details of our individual parts of the project, with the information gathered from each other we can properly plan out our future goals to reach the ultimate big one. The home work will be the aftermath of what we discuss in class, for example, if it turns out someone’s part needs more detail, they will go home and fix the problem. Then Friday after school when we all fixed our respective problems if any, we can show the corrected versions and put together the next step of the project.
