Level 3
Demonstrates an excellent understanding of the DCOMS concept, the application must work with the
good implementation of RMI, Socket, Serialization and managing of transaction in the proper way.
The code should be implemented to a high standard of functionality, with appropriate test plan and
result of the test.
Documentation will be of a high standard. The elaboration of Virtualization, cloud and grid
computing usage in DCOMS and the benefit of ICE technology for DCOMS must be in the
documentation. The comparison of new technologies in DCOMS with application limitation clearly
discussed and future enhancement of the application in real word will be a part of documentation.
Referencing and comments in the source code are very clear and followed the standard; readability
of source code follows the W3 standard. The presentation and application demonstration is good and
answers provided for any questions are completed.
3.2.2
Demonstrates a good understanding of the DCOMS concepts and technology, the presentation and
documentation explains the core of the requirements with accepted level of development, main
protocols are implemented and transaction management is addressed in the code, minimum test case
and result is implemented.
Document referencing and code comment is complete and the code is following standard to achieve
readability. The document has minimum discussion of Virtualization, cloud and grid computing
usage in DCOMS and the benefit of ICE technology for the assignment.
3.2.3
Demonstrate some understanding of the DCOMS concepts and technologies. The code can be run
with minimum defect and error. There is enough explanation for each part of the developed and used
technologies. Documentation is adequate. The student will be able to discuss his/her implementation
during the presentation and will be able to explain the way in which he/she has attempted the project.
3.2.4
sufficient to demonstrate that the student understands the work that has been submitted. The

implementation will not cover major requested protocols and the application is not able to run in a
proper manner.
Documentation is limited or not to an acceptable standard. There is no test case and result of test.
The inappropriate referencing and poor source code comment.
3.2.5
Fail (0 - 39%)
Demonstrate poor understanding of the DCOMS concepts, documentation incomplete and poor
explanation during demonstration. The implementation of protocols or technologies are weak or
incomplete, the application has very minimum functionality and unable to run properly.
Referencing / code comments are very poor or do not have proper referencing / comments. The
communication between components and server is not properly designed and is unable to
communicate to the server.
Note: Zero mark will be awarded for not proper implementation or insufficient explanations to
demonstrate that the student understands the work that has been submitted.

4 Assignment Requirements
1. You are required to work individually.
2. The report has to be well presented and should be typed. Submission of reports that are
unprofessional in its outlook (dirty, disorganised, inconsistent, varying coloured paper and
size) will not fare well when marks are allocated.
3. Ensure that the report is printed on a standard A4 (210 X 297 mm) sized paper. Paper weight
of 80 grams and above is highly recommended.
1 inch
illustrated here:
1 inch
1 inch
4. The report should have a one (1) margin all around the page as
1 inch
1 inch
1 inch
1 inch
1 inch
5. Every report must have a front cover. A transparent plastic sheet can be placed in front of the
report to protect the front cover. The front cover should have the following details:
a) Student name.
b) Intake code.
c) Subject.
d) Project Title.
e) Date Assigned (the date the report was handed out).
f) Date Completed (the date the report is due to be handed in).
6. Plagiarism is a serious offence and will automatically be awarded zero (0) marks.
7. All information, figures and diagrams obtained from external sources must be referenced
using the Harvard referencing system accordingly.

5 Background
There is a football club for APU students that manage students who are interested in participating in
football games. The main approach of this APU football club is to produce players and this club
provide the opportunity for both boys and girls to participate in football in a safe and nondiscriminatory environment and build a sense of community that values teamwork. Later this club
started using a volunteer management system called the Team Support System (TSS).
This TSS program sees each team (of 10 to 16 players) having a support team that includes a first
aider, coach, assistant coach, team manager. The support team members are made up of passionate,
dedicated and committed. This TSS will help people run their day to day team operations more
smoothly with the motto of less work for more people. The clubs facilities have been improved
significantly through grants received in partnership with the local council and APU.
This APU group organizes sport events every year for the students to participate by a group. Here the
TSS manages all kind of club information like registration details, announcements and so on. Few
years ago the APU was followed the information in manual. Now they wish to implement a system in
order to provide more flexibility for the sports club.
