Submission Date: To be submitted in week 11 Assessment Task: The assessment is about a design of a system using OOP. Total Mark: 20 Marks Weighting: 20% Students are advised that submission of an Assessment Task past the due date without a formally signed approved Assignment Extension Form (Kent Website MyKent Student Link> FORM – Assignment Extension Application Form – Student Login Required) or previously approved application for other extenuating circumstances impacting course of study, incurs a 5% penalty per calendar day, calculated by deduction from the total mark. For example. An Assessment Task marked out of 40 will incur a 2 mark penalty for each calendar day.

The report should follow the following structure 1. Title Page 2. Executive Summary 3. Introduction 4. Background 5. Case Study and the Design 5.1 Variables, Ranges and Keys 5.2 Operations and the Justification 5.3 Algorithms and the Justification 5.4 Modifications 6. Conclusion 7. References Case Study: You are required to design a health system for a small medical partitioning centre with information about doctors and patients. Assume that there are: 50 Doctors 100 Nursing staff Around 1000 patients. You need to decide how would you like to represent the doctors, nursing staff and patients. For each of these decide what variables should be there (think in terms of OOP design). Also provide ranges for these variables. You will need to specify keys as well to carry out some essential operations related to this health system. Identify and list down potential keys for given entities. Use your knowledge of real world and think about operations that will be needed for the health system. Keep in mind that it is not a complete hospital management system but should support the main/basic operations. Mainly, we are interested in locating the records of doctors, nursing staff and patients, but should support all basic operations of any information system. For each of these operations, discuss the most suitable algorithms that can implement these operations efficiently. Use your knowledge of various algorithms to suggest why your chosen algorithm for each operation is the most appropriate one. Your justification should talk about the different properties/characteristics of algorithms and explain as to why your chosen algorithm is best suited to the problem in question. Now, a public hospital wants to adopt your system for computerizing their records of staff and patients. The hospital has a total of 1000 doctors, 4000 nurses and around 10,000 patients. Do you think your previously suggested algorithms would be able to handle this volume of data efficiently? If yes, justify and if not, suggest the new set of algorithms (and change in data structures, if needed) that will ensure that system will work smoothly and efficiently.

All materials MUST be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word format. Other formats (e.g., pdf or MAC file) may not be readable by markers. Please be aware that any assessments submitted in other formats will be considered LATE and will lose marks until it is presented in MS Word. No paper based or hardcopy submission will be accepted. MARKING GUIDE (RUBRIC): Marking Criteria Fail (0- 9.8) Pass (10 - 12.8) Credit (13 -14.8) Distinction (15- 16.8) High Distinction (17- 20) Specification of K/V/R with justification /20 Little or no specification of keys, values and ranges with no justification is given. Only one out of three (K/V/R) are specified with no or little justification provided. Only two out of three (K/V/R) are specified with no or little justification provided. Only two out of three (K/V/R) are specified with right justifications. All keys, values and ranges are clearly specified and supported by right arguments. Fail (0- 9.8) Pass (10 - 12.8) Credit (13 -14.8) Distinction (15- 16.8) High Distinction (17- 20) Operations /20 No operations are specified that are required for proper functioning of the system. Some rudimentary/un- necessary operations are specified which are not crucial
