Course Project

Motivation

The goal of the CSC7123 project is to engage a group of students in building a real-life distributed application using middleware-based approaches and state-of-the-art technologies. Synchronous, asynchronous and publish/subscribe interaction paradigms can be leveraged to support data exchange between applications. Such paradigms are supported from the corresponding state-of-the-art technologies discussed in lab sessions.

Project proposal

  • Each project team should consist of 2 members
  • Define project proposal by including: title, introduction, objectives, weekly implementation planning
  • Submit your proposal on Moodle in PDF
  • Submit your proposal, slides, reports and code on Moodle

Protocol for project presentations

  • Your demo will consist of a short presentation of your project and ~10 minutes of you demonstrating your system in action. This can take the form of showing us your application, a working front end for your system, a live demo of your devices in action, or perhaps something as simple as an easy-to-read logging print-out of your system’s functionality.
  • We will then ask you several questions about how you designed and implemented your project. This includes showing us the code you wrote and how you partitioned the work among your group members, all of whom must be present during the demo. Your answers are expected to demonstrate that you fully understand the concept you chose to put significant effort into the design and implementation.
