Assignment Description 

This group assignment is the continuation of Assessment 1 case scenarios, MIT’s Alumni  portal project. Students should form groups of three or four members for this assignment.  The purpose of this assignment is to analyze, design and implement (coding, building, and  testing) the project. 

MIT would like your group writing up a report, which contains the following activities for  designing and developing the Alumni portal: 

1. Product Roadmap to outline a general timeframe (e.g., Gantt Chart) for when your  group will design, develop, and release identified requirements from Assessment 1. 

2. The SRS document (a sample template in Moodle) which contains the following design  elements (using UML notations): 

Identify and draw a use case diagram(s) for MIT’s Alumni portal 

ER diagram with all possible entities and attributes 

State chart diagram(s) 

Sequence diagram(s) 

Class diagram for the entire system with all the attributes, methods, and  associations. 

3. The design document must include layered architecture and implement using the tools and platform of your choice, a software application with a front-end GUI,  middle layer implementing the business logic and backend database. 

4. Your group also requires designing a test specification (test cases) based on the project requirements and implementing (verification) them with evidence. 

The report contents should include the following headings: 

a. Cover page and your group details 

b. Executive Summary (state system overview, system users, and system usability) c. Table of Contents 

d. Introduction 

e. Discussions (expand and explain your group’s supportive arguments) 

f. Conclusion and recommendations 

g. References and appendices 

References 

Must consider at least eight references (with at least five current references – not earlier  than 2020). Must follow the IEEE referencing style. 

Assignment Instructions: 

Do not use Wikipedia as a source or a reference. 

• Make sure you properly reference.
