Milestones
Q1
Year 1
Q2 Q3
Q4
The first milestone will design the lecture notes after recruiting a teaching assistant and
performing literature search for suitable textbooks. The first milestone will take approximately 3
months for completion.
The second milestone will develop the laboratory exercises, solutions, and case study for the
course. The laboratory exercises focus on designing and developing applications using UML
and Java. The case study involves the development of an electronic healthcare application,
which involves a complete end to end system implemented in Java, and the integration of open
standards such as IBM InfoSphere Clinical Analytics, IBM WebSphere Message Broker with
support for HL7, IBM Healthcare Industry Toolbox for WebSphere Portal, IBM WebSphere
Transformation Extender Industry Pack for Healthcare, and IBM WebSphere Healthcare Content
Pack. The second milestone will take approximately 6 months for completion.
The final milestone will perform the final documentation for the project, which includes the
writing of the course book and finalizing the lecture notes. The final milestone will take
approximately 3 months for completion.
