This section contains information about the general requirements that your assignment must
meet and how to get help.
1. Your database must be set up on your AWS linux instance (as set up following the instructions
in the initial practical classes in the laboratories). As some tasks require timing you
should use the same AWS linux instance and versions of MongoDB and Apache Derby
for all tasks.
2. Parts of this assignment will ask you to analyse your results, and to write your conclusions
in a report. The report MUST be a PDF file. Submissions that do not meet this
requirement will NOT be marked.
3. Your report must be well-written. Poorly written or hard to read reports will receive
substantially lower marks. Your report should be appropriate to submit in a professional
environment (such as including in a portfolio of your work for a prospective employer).
The RMIT Study & Learning Centre employs advisors to help you improve your writing.
For details, see http://www.rmit.edu.au/studyandlearningcentre.
4. All sections of this assignment are expected to show that you have thought about the
problem. The most basic structuring of data and analysis will get the most basic mark.
5. The COSC2407 Database Systems course blackboard contains a discussion board for this
assignment allowing a forum for students to ask questions (see below) and contribute
to discussion about aspects of the assignment. If there are announcements about the
assignment (including if there are any revisions to the assignment specification) these
will also be made via announcements on the course blackboard. You are expected to
check these on a daily basis. Login through https://my.rmit.edu.au.
6. If you have any questions about the assignment (for example to clarify requirements):
(a) Please first check this assignment specification, as well the announcements and the
discussion board to see if it has already been answered.
(b) If it has NOT already been answered and does NOT include your own code (including
database queries), please post your question on the discussion board.
(c) Otherwise, if your question involves your own code (or is about your personal situation)
then discuss it in your pract
