Week 8

As you can see, im a little late in doing this. better not be becomming a habbit. na i have had a crazy week of assignments and have just found some time.

Lecture consisted in design, the first week on it. it covered activities that occur in the phase such as Application architecture, user interfaces, system interfaces, database, network diagram and system controls. Also discussed prototyping of systems to make sure that the client is happy with what is thought is needed. Diagraming and more diagramming is needed but also different layers of archeteture such as view layer, business logic and data level so that if a change is made, it should not effect any other layers.

Tutorial was kind of frustraiting because of a class of 10 or 15 people, it was like there was a participation of 2 people. i find that the way i learn is by finding out how the others think and expand on my thoughts. with 2 people including myself is not enough. oh well the tut consist of looking at the CFA website and discuss the purpose and problems and then solutions. also we looked at telestra and other smaller activities. i thought that maybe there could have been a bit more in the tut but with the input from others it seemed to be fine. i thought the questions could have been a bit harder but i spose its the first week. i know i have pritty much just bitched but i felt that it was necessary.
