Reflective Research Report
Assessment 3 Quick Start Guide
Self-Driving Car Solutions
Your competitors propose
solutions up to Level 4
You propose a Level 5 solution,
which is centrally controlled &
requires every car to be
controlled centrally
You have to do a consulting
proposal, which argues in
favour of your solution
Don’t compare Levels 0-4
Argue your solution concept
versus non-centrally controlled
concepts (Levels 0-4)
Search the internet for
good consulting proposals to
get your assessment structure
into good shape
Consider Ethics In Your Proposal
Draw your traffic control centre system architecture example (you MUST NOT copy develop your own)
Develop your ERD from the system architecture Most important part of this assessment
Include & Discuss Big Data requirements SQL versus NoSQL
The detail behind the efficiency debate
Transaction robustness comparison: SQL (ACID) versus NoSQL (BASE), which one suits your solution?

Consider what is meant by ‘autonomous’ and then explore the benefits and challenges that autonomous vehicles may present in a future in which they are widely adopted
What if someone takes their old (non-controlled) car out of the garage and takes it for a ride what are the consequences?
Consider what would happen when a vehicle needed refuelling
Consider the security requirements in the context of what could go wrong in operating such a system
Don’t include more than seven (7) entities in your ERD, because it will become unwieldy
Don’t drill down on one/two elements of your ERD keep everything at the high level
Our online breakout rooms in Week 10 identified the following entity candidates:
Vehicles
Passengers
Trips/Reservations/Booking are a RELATIOSHIP (not an entity) between Vehicles and Passenger entities
Refuel/Recharge Stations
Weather
Call Centre
Sensory data (cameras, air pollution, noise pollution)
Is this an entity or is it covered in the data model above: Phone app with booking/payment system?
Make sure you cover these points
Good luck !
