Assignment 3

Title:

WAP application.

Description:

Design and implement a simple WAP application using WML and WMLScript, which can be used by the Looking Glass corporation (as given in Assignment 1).

You application should have at most 5 cards (pages), but must include forms for user submitted data, and scripts to process them.

Submission Requirements:

If you wish to submit physical copies, you must provide the following :

Complete print-out of all source code used to implement your application, including comments to help the assessor understand your code.

Source code and any executable versions of your scripts/programs submitted on floppy disk. Internal students will be asked to demonstrate them during a lab session after the submission date.

A printed short description of your system, justifying its usefulness for the organization.

Cover sheet.

If you submit online, you must provide the following :

All source code used to implement your application, including comments to help the assessor understand your code.

A short description of your system, justifying its usefulness for the organization.

Assessment Criteria:

Your submission will be evaluated based on the following criteria (the weight of each component is given in brackets):

Use of WML. (30%)

Use of WMLScript. (30%)

Appropriateness of application to the corporation. (20%)

Application's ease of use. (20%)

Learning Objectives:

As with all assignments, this assignment is to assess how well you have achieved the unit's learning objectives. This assignment is principally focused Learning Objectives 1 (understanding technologies), 2 (writing software), and 3 (construct solutions). You will need to progress in Learning Objective 4 (self-learning) to find the necessary information, but it is not the focus of this assignment. To do well in this assignment, you should strive to demonstrate achieving the stated objectives.

Note:

Keep in mind that this assignment is only worth 5% of your total final marks - that's why there's a limit of 5 cards. As a guide to the required standard to score well, you are only expected to produce something at the same complexity as the application in the WAP online tutorial in your reading list.
