    Background: E-Government Technology
    After evaluating various platforms, the government finally decided to adopt a Service
    Oriented Architecture (SOA) for its future IT infrastructure. They were impressed with your
    template-based Reference Architecture approach set out in your Task 1 Report and have
    accepted your recommendations regarding:
    • Computing and storage infrastructure design,
    • Application / service integration, and
    • Information integration.
    However, they would like to gain a deeper understanding of the technologies behind your
    recommendation and have asked for a small specific demonstration of these technologies
    along with a brief explanation of the concepts and principles of how it works.
    Assignment Task
    This assignment consists of two deliverables, being:
    • Demonstration code (50%). All code relating to this assignment should be contained within a
    folder named: Task 2 – Your Name – Student Number, the folder is then to be zipped and
    uploaded to blackboard.
    • A report (50%). The report must be uploaded separately.
    Part 1 – Demonstration Code (50%)
    Important Note: For ease of demonstration, your code must be self-contained. In addition to
    using Standards based HTML and Python, PETL, Bottle and Parser are the only additional
    frameworks you should need. If you use others they must be provided and not require
    installation.
    To demonstrate your code, you have been provided with four data sources compiled with
    fictitious sample data. These are:
    • “Offices.csv” contains the information about the government offices,
    • “Office_Locations.csv” contains the location coordinates for each office,
    • “Services.xml” contains a list of government office services, and
    • “Office_Services.csv” contains a list of offices and the services they offer.
    Task 1 – Data integration demo.
    You are to submit a python script named “data_integration.py” which first clean the data then
    merge it into one CSV output file named “office_service_locations.csv”.
    ICT705 Data and System Integration Assignment 2

    Task 1.1 Data Cleansing (10 marks)
    Clean the data in the phone number field in “Offices.csv” to ensure all phone numbers are in
    the same format:
    (+international_code) regional_code phone_number
    That is, all phone numbers should have the international code for Australia “(+61)”, followed
    by a space, followed by the regional code in two digits, followed by a space, followed by 8
    digits of the local phone number. For example, the Brisbane office should be formatted to:
    (+61) 07 36728709
    Whilst regional codes do not always adhere to state boundaries, you may apply the
    following regional codes for each state:
    NSW = 02
    VIC = 03
    QLD = 07
    SA = 09
    Task 1.2 Data Merge (10 marks)
    Merge the data from all four data sources, and generate output file
    “office_service_locations.csv” with the following fields (attributes):
    • OfficeServicesID – a unique field identifying each record from Office_Services
    • OfficeID – a foreign key linking to Services from Office_Services
    • Service – the ServiceName from Services
    • OfficeID – a foreign key linking to offices and locations
    • Office – the “Contact Name” from offices
    • Suburb – the “Suburb” from offices
    • Phone – the cleaned “Phone Number” data from offices
    • Email – the “Email” address from offices
    • Lat – from Office_Locations
    • Lon – from Office_Locations
    Task 2 – RESTful Web Service Demo
    You are to submit a python script named “office_locator.py”.
    For tasks 2.1 to 2.2, your script should build a RESTful web service that supports a
    ‘getoffices’ query from the client browser similar to “/getoffices?serviceid=x”. The server
    Web Service will return a JSON table with the following fields (attributes): Office, Suburb,
    Service, Phone, Email, Lat, Lon.
    Data is to come from the “office_service_locations.csv” you built in task 1.2.
    Task 2.1 Return offices for a service (5 marks)
    The server will return a table of records (tuples) of offices offering the service ID passed to it.
    ICT705 Data and System Integration Assignment 2
    Page 5 of 8
    Task 2.2 List of Services (5 marks)
    To populate your drop-down list in task 3.1, you will need to return a JSON table of all
    records from “services.csv” with the following fields (attributes): ServiceID, Service. The
    server should respond to a “getservices” request.
    Task 3 Mashup Demo
    You are to submit a HTML file “office_map.html” and optionally a CSS file named
    “office_map.css”.
    Task 3.1 Form Layout (5 marks)
    You are to create an input form that accepts user input for a particular service. The input for
    the service should be a drop-down list whose items should be created dynamically from a call
    to getservices from task 2.2.
    The drop-down list should be accompanied with descriptors and a “Locate Offices” button.
    Task 3.2 Google Map (10 marks)
    Clicking the “Locate Offices” button will trigger a “getoffices” web service to retrieve a table
    of offices matching the service with attributes described in task 2. From this data you are to
    display a Google cluster map marking the position of the returned offices. The map should be
    centred and zoomed to an appropriate level to show all offices in Australia.
    Task 3.3 Information Window Demographics (5 marks)
    Upon clicking a marker bubble on the map, the user will be displayed an information window
    containing: Contact Name, Suburb, Phone Number, and a clickable email address.

    ITECH2002 – Systems Modelling
    Assignment 2 Specification
    A1. Write integrated reports, using appropriate models, providing detailed analysis of given textual
    scenarios.
    4. HOW AND WHAT TO SUBMIT
    • Moodle has been set up so each group submits only one document – anyone from a team can
    submit.
    • Submit a Word or text document which has the link to a GoogleDoc document which has the
    group work and individual work and the link to the top level InVision screen. This GoogleDoc
    document must be complete: if it uses LucidChart, then please include the images drawn in
    LucidChart in GoogleDoc and provide the link to the LucidChart images. In other words, readers
    should only need to read the GoogleDoc document without having to refer to LucidChart. We
    will check the history of GoogleDoc and InVision Screens to find out how much you have
    contributed to this assignment. You must share the GoogleDoc, LucidChart and InVision
    Screens with your lecturer and tutor.
    As a general guide to how the document should look, think about your target audience, which in
    this case is another system analyst and a quality assurance (QA) team who will work with the
    system. Remember that everyone is busy and overloaded with information, so please include only
    the most essential information: be brief but clear. The QA team will use the test plans to develop
    automated system tests. We expect the GoogleDoc document to have the following information:
    1. The name of the organisation you are modelling.
    2. The name and student ID of each team member and the name of the system or subsystem
    modelled.
    3. For each member, the extended use cases, activity diagrams, and system sequence diagrams for
    two of the most complex use cases.
    4. Snapshots of all screens, and a link to the top level Invision screen which links to the screen of
    each member. The screen for each team member must be from one of the two use cases
    selected in step 3.
    5. For each member, the test plan for the use case chosen in step 4 – in other words, the test plan
    must be for the same use case as for the screen design.

    Please refer to the Assessment 3 rubrics at the end of this document and/or on CloudDeakin for the
    assessment criteria and required performance levels.
    Marks and feedback for Assessment 3 will be available to students on CloudDeakin following the
    University’s release of final grades for Trimester 1.
    Assessment Description
    Page 2 of 9
    The purpose of this assessment task is to provide you the opportunity to apply theoretical concepts
    covered throughout on topics from Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Dwyer (2016) such as public relations,
    communicating through visuals, oral presentation and writing for the professions.
    Why is written communication important in public relations? Communication plays a vital role in
    effective public relations. It’s very important that an organisation can communicate their message
    well so that all parties are on the same page. The organisation that is doing the public relations
    must understand exactly what it is their other party wants for exposure. For example, a speech that
    the Vice Chancellor delivers could be public writing. An advertisement for Telstra could also be
    public writing. Public writing is a message that someone expresses through writing, and is revealed
    publicly. The main purpose is to gain exposure, or to get a message across to the public.
    In this assessment task, you are to provide a written communication of 1500 words;
    video/podcast/audio of five (5) minutes maximum; and a blog/topic commentaries of 1000 words.
    Assessment Requirements
    You are to provide:
    1. Written communication of ONE (1) message to TWO (2) different audiences ie. one external
    stakeholder and the other internal stakeholder.
    You are required to provide:
    a) A brief INTRODUCTION that provides context for the situation and an explanation for
    your choice of stakeholder groups. (200 words)
    In your Introduction, you are to outline the ‘situation’ and context of the stakeholder groups.
    The situation should be actual as hopefully you will have some knowledge and familiarity.
    It is also acceptable to select a situation that would be likely to occur in the future, but be
    sure to apply it to the present timeframe.
    You also need to identify the stakeholders you are addressing in your strategy and explain
    why you chose them.
    You should also explain the choice of selected media (i.e. Press Release and PowerPoint
    presentation) for each stakeholder. For example, you prepare a Press Release for your
    external stakeholders; and a multimedia PowerPoint presentation for your internal
    stakeholders.
    b) A written Press Release. (500 words)
    c) A PowerPoint Presentation for your 5-minute audio recording. (500 word includes
    speech transcript for the 5-minute audio)
    d) A reflection on the key elements you have learnt, seen or experienced when you
    developed a message for the written Press Release and PowerPoint presentation for
    your two different stakeholders. (300 words)
    2. A 5-minute audio (such as YouTube video, or audio embedded in the PowerPoint
    presentation (Note: Please embed the audio on the final slide of your presentation), to get
    your message across to your selected stakeholder groups (which can be either employees or
    the general public or both).

    WORST COWORKER PAPER
    Your paper can focus on either a current coworker or a past coworker. The coworker
    should be a real person, as opposed to an amalgam of multiple individuals. Moreover,
    some portions of the paper work better if the coworker is of a similar hierarchical level to
    you–as opposed to a boss or a supervisor. The paper should include the following three
    sections:
    1. Background
    – Describe the coworker. Give enough detail that it’s clear why you feel
    the way you do about this person, with enough richness that the section “brings the
    person to life” for the reader. Feel free to omit or disguise any details that might be
    sensitive in nature.
    2. Explanations
    – Drawing on key terms from Chapters 4-7 and 9, provide an
    explanation of why, in your estimation, this employee has low levels of job
    performance and/or organizational commitment. When I say “key terms”, I’m
    referring to the words that are bolded in the chapters and that appear in the Key
    Terms section at the end of each chapter. Given the strict word count, you’ll need to
    strike a balance between breadth of coverage (i.e., the number of key terms
    mentioned) and depth of coverage (i.e., how detailed your use of a given key term is
    in explaining the employee’s attitudes and behaviors)
    3. Recommendations
    – Flowing out of the key terms discussed in the previous section,
    describe what the top managers or leaders in the company could do, very
    specifically, to improve the performance and/or commitment of your coworker. Then
    describe what you, personally, could do to make this coworker more effective.
    Finally, answer the following questions: Is this employee a “problem that cannot be
    fixed” to some extent? If so, describe what the top managers or leaders in the
    company could do to avoid similar problems in the future.
    Beyond the parameters above, please bring your own self-expression, initiative, and
    creativity to the content and style of the paper.

    Objectives
    Please refer to the Unit Profile to see how this assessment item relates to the Unit Learning Outcomes.
    This assignment is designed to stimulate critical thinking outside of the classroom by requiring students
    to write a formal academic report. You will need to follow the ARE process described in chapters 2 and
    3 of Your Business Degree 2 (prescribed textbook for COIT20249) to analyse the assessment task,
    research relevant information and evaluate the information you find. This information should be used to
    write an academic report in which you present your findings or outcomes and make recommendations
    for future practice. Professional writing and writing reports are described in chapters 4 and 5 of Your
    Business Degree 2. This assessment task will assess your skills in critical thinking, researching
    information, forming an opinion, academic writing, logical ordering of ideas and your ability to support
    your arguments with quotes from literature. These objectives will be measured by the ‘closeness of fit’
    to meeting the assessment task, assessment requirements and marking criteria.
    Please note that there is a wealth of material available on the Moodle Unit website that you should
    use to help you through the process of searching for and gathering relevant information, evaluating
    that information and writing your report.
    General Assessment Criteria
    Assessments provide the opportunity for students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills to achieve
    the required standard. To do this, assessment responses need to be both clear and easy to understand. If
    not, the University cannot determine that students have demonstrated their knowledge and skills.
    Assessments will, therefore, be marked accordingly including the potential for 0 (zero) marks where
    relevant.
    The report must focus on the case study scenario given in the Assessment Task section. Any assessment
    items that do not address the case study scenario may be awarded 0 (zero) marks.
    If you use Track Changes when writing your report you must ensure that the submitted document is the
    final and correct version of the document. That is, if your submitted report contains Track Changes or
    Comments or any other editing marks it may be awarded 0 (zero) marks. It is your responsibility to
    submit the final and correct version of your report.
    2
    The length of the report must be within the recommended range. If the report exceeds the maximum
    word count the marker will stop marking after 2750 words.
    Moodle auto-submits draft files that are in Moodle at the originally set deadlines. Files that are autosubmitted
    will not be reverted to draft status except in extenuating circumstances (evidence required). It
    is your responsibility not to leave draft assessments in Moodle at the due date and time if the files are
    not ready to be submitted for marking. However, late submissions may attract penalties.
    Assessment Task
    Students are required to write an academic report as per the format outlined in chapter 5 of the
    textbook. The report must follow the CQU APA referencing style. See the American Psychological
    Association (APA) abridged guide updated T
