Summary of expected project
 Expected projects should have a weight similar to your assignment, but much more
complex

 Their complexity and functionality should qualify them to be done by a group of 4


students.

 There should be a reporting component in each of the project.


 Eg: number sales made for the year, graph showing sales made this year, graph showing
comparisons of figures

 Amount of functionality(requirements) should be more than 20 in each system,


excluding reports

 Should be standalone applications, written in either VB or Java.

 Should make use of SQL for querying the database. MySql, Ms SQL Server. No Ms
