You have been asked to participate in an information systems project during the requirements collection phase

Information Science Assignment-A Requirements Collection Strategy
Field: Information Systems
Question

You have been asked to participate in an information systems project during the requirements collection phase. Requirements are a specific type of information that define what an information system is expected to be able to do for various stakeholders and users. The information system is expected to simplify the task of assigning project resources to projects, i.e., programmers, project managers, user interface designers to various client projects.
​You have been asked to develop a requirements collection strategy. As part of that, write a requirements collection plan that addresses the following:

Which information collection techniques would be most useful and why?
For each selected technique, state the pros and cons.
What kinds of biases might the requirements collection efforts be subject to and how would you mitigate those risks?

The values earned by the students have been entered for you. To calculate the final grade percentage you will need to add up the exam scores; then divide by the total number of exam points and then multiply by the weighted percentage. In a similar manner, calculate the percentage for the project.

CIS Module

Computer Science

The class data in the homework uses a slightly different grading structure. There are 3 exams worth 80% of the overall grade and a project worth 20%. The values earned by the students have been entered for you. To calculate the final grade percentage you will need to add up the exam scores; then divide by the total number of exam points and then multiply by the weighted percentage. In a similar manner, calculate the percentage for the project.

Once you have both percentages calculated you will need to add them together to get the final grade percentage. Remember that a student cannot earn more than 100%! Also remember that your goal is to provide the professor with detailed analysis of the students using all the formulas and functions you practiced in the module.

C++ Assignment

Submit three complete C++ files:

1. Consider the following program segment //include statement(s)

//using namespace statement

int main() {

//variable declaration

//executable statements

//return statement

}
a. Write a C++ statement that includes the header file iostream.

b. Write a C++ statement that allows you to use cin, cout, and endl

c.  without the prefix std::. Write C++ statement(s) that declare the following variables: num1,
num2, num3, and average of type int.

d. Write C++ statements that store 125 into num1, 28 into num2, and
-25 into num3.

e. Write a C++ statement that stores the average of num1, num2, and
num3, into average.

f. Write C++ statement(s) that output the values of num1, num2, num3,
and average.

g. Compile and run your program.

*********************************************************************************************************************************************

2. Consider the following C++ program in which the statements are in the incorrect order. Rearrange the statements so that it prompts the user to input the radius of a circle and outputs the area and circumference of the circle.

#include <iostream> {

int main()

cout << “Enter the radius: “;

cin >> radius; cout << endl;

double radius; double area;

using namespace std;

return 0;

cout << “Area = ” << area << endl;

area = PI * radius * radius;

circumference = 2 * PI * radius;

cout << “Circumference = ” << circumference << endl;

const double PI = 3.14;

double circumference;

}

Sid has listed a number of activities that must be completed before a training program of this nature could be conducted. The network for the problem and the activity times are below.

 

 

A

 

Start B

 

C

 

 

 

E
15

 

D

 

F
12

 

Finish G

 

Activity	Time (Days)
A	2
B	5
C	1
D	10
E	3
F	6
G	8

 

(a)  Find the ES, EF, LS, and LF of each activity, and type them into the appropriate locations in the network. Two values have been inserted for you as check figures.

(b)  Find the finish time for the project, and find the critical path.

(c)   Find the slack times for the activities that are not on the critical path.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Time estimates for a project are given below.

 

Activity	Optimistic	Most Probable	Pessimistic	Expected Time	Variance
A	7	10	16
B	5	7	9
C	2	3	7
D	3	5	7
E	5	10	15
F	6	8	13

 

(a)  Find the expected activity times and the variances of activity completion times, and insert them into the table.

(b)  Suppose that the critical path of this project turns out to be A-C-E-F. Find the project variance and the project standard deviation.  [Check figure: standard deviation is 2.66. You must show work to get credit for this answer.]

(c)   Given an expected completion time of 32.5 days, and the standard deviation of 2.66 found in the previous question, find the probability that the project will be completed within 34 days. Hint: After finding the z-score, there is one more step to find the probability.
