System Design Final Project

Systems Design Project Instructions For your final assignment in this course, you will create a project using the requirements outlined below. You may use your own place of business (preferred) or an existing business that will allow you to perform these exercises. Answers such as “Yes” or “No” are  not  sufficient to respond to these questions. Final Project Requirements Create an entire SDLC process that will bring added value to a business. Use of the following is mandatory: 1. Planning Phase a. Identify the project—what is it supposed to do? b. Determine the methodology to be used; describe, in detail, why you chose this methodology c. Define/determine business requirements and describe the techniques you will use to gather this information 2. Analysis Phase a. Describe how this project will bring added value to the business. This should be in the form of an actual presentation outline, such as one would read while doing a Power Point presentation to the Board i. Determine who the key players are ii. Describe any known or possible issues that might arise as to why the project will not be approved b. Along with the outline, prepare a Use Case diagram for the new system—ensure you consider staffing, budgets, training, maintenance, etc. 3. Design Phase a. Determine the hardware and software requirements i. Will the existing infrastructure support the project? 1. If not, describe in detail what will be needed. ii. Is new hardware required? iii. Is new software required? 1. If new software is required, how will it be obtained? 2. Is the existing database adequate? b. Create the Project work plan, complete with (projected) timelines using a Gantt chart. 4. Implementation Phase a. Describe how the system is to be implemented; Phased? Turn key? Mirrored? Parallel? b. Describe why the implementation you chose is the best for this project Make sure to include  scholarly article to support your project and proper citations.  Based on English · 4-1. Consider the following words with respect to how the sound represented by is pronounced. For each column, specify the phonetic character of the allophone (how it is pronounced). Is it aspirated? Tapped? Then, as was done in this chapter for the allophones of English /p/, describe the allophones of /t/ and specify their distribution. A B C D tougher standing later petunia talker still data potato teller story petal return Examine the careful and casual pronunciations of the English expressions below; then for each one, (a) provide a transcription of the careful pronunciation; (b) identify the name of the phonological process that links them; (c) describe what actually occurs in the process in each particular case. Use one of these as identifiers for the process: Assimilation (ASS); Deletion (DEL); Insertion (INS); Metathesis (MET). An example is given for the first expression. (For this exercise, you may ignore vowel changes.) (Note: /ɱ/ is the IPA symbol for a labiodental nasal.)

Fijian has prenasalized stops among its inventory of phonemes. The prenasalized stop [nd] consists of a nasal pronounced immediately before the stop, with which it forms a single sound unit. Consider the following Fijian words as pronounced in fast speech: vindi ‘to spring up’ dina ‘true’ kenda ‘we’ dalo ‘taro plant’ tiko ‘to stay’ vundi ‘plantain banana’ tutu ‘grandfather’ manda ‘first’ viti ‘Fiji’ tina ‘mother’ dovu ‘sugarcane’ mata ‘eye’ dondo ‘to stretch out one’s hand’ mokiti ‘round’ vevendu (a type of plant) On the basis of these data, determine whether [d], [nd], and [t] are allophones of a single phoneme or constitute two or three separate phonemes. If you find that two of them (or all of them) are allophones of a single phoneme, give the rule that describes the distribution of each allophone. If you analyze all three as separate phonemes, justify your answer. (Note: In Fijian all syllables end in a vowel.) 4-11. The distribution of the sounds [s] and [z] in colloquial Spanish is represented by the following examples in phonetic transcription: izla ‘island’ tʃiste ‘joke’ fuersa ‘force’ eski ‘ski’ peskado ‘fish’ riezgo ‘risk’ muskulo ‘muscle’ fiskal ‘fiscal’ sin ‘without’ rezvalar ‘to slip’ rasko ‘I scratch’ dezde ‘since’ resto ‘remainder’ razgo ‘feature’ mizmo ‘same’ beizbɔl ‘baseball’ espalda ‘back’ mas ‘more’ Are [s] and [z] distinct phonemes of Spanish or allophones of a single phoneme? If they are distinct phonemes, support your answer. If they are allophones of the same phoneme, specify their distribution.
