ITECH6401 Enterprise Programming
Assignment 1 – Individual Assignment
Overview
This assignment requires you to analyse a problem and to design and implement a solution,
which the user interacts with, via a GUI. The tasks required of your program will require you
to demonstrate your understanding of the programming concepts covered in Weeks 1-4 of
the course: setting the foundations and a brief introduction to the course and to the Java
programming language
Timelines and Expectations
Percentage Value of Task: 15%
Due: Thu, Sept 8, 2016 - 16:00 (Week 8)
Minimum time expectation: 10 hours
Learning Outcomes Assessed
K1. Describe elements of a common object oriented programming language suitable for
web based
application development
S3. Develop applications involving complex component technology
A1. Design and implement technical solutions addressing connectivity between components
Assessment Details
Given a code base, you are required to download the code and explain how it works as well as
commenting the code so that it is easier to understand. You will then be asked to provide
additional functionality to the code which is reflected in the GUI. The final task is to modify the
code so that it is threaded. Your report will consist of three sections each of which addresses the
required task. For each task you are required to demonstrate the task.CRICOS Provider No. 00103D ITECH6401 Assig 1 Sem 2 2016-17 Page 2 of 5
Task 1
Download and run the file Assig1_Base.zip in a project called Assig_1_Base. You should see the
following or similar:
Document the code by adding suitable comments and briefly, but clearly, describe how the code works
in your report. You might want to use pseudocode, UML1 and screenshots. Save this report and code
as your Task 1.
Task 2
Modify the code in Task 1 so that by pressing one button a ball is added and by pressing another
button a ball is removed. A random colour should be assigned to each added ball; use 7 colours.
Clearly label each ball with a number; you might need to rescale. As above, describe your method
in achieving this task and comment your code. Show evidence of this working. Save this report
and code as Task 2.
Task 3
Use a thread to control the running of the application. Demonstrate this clearly.
Enable the user to delete any given ball by using the label on the ball.

Plagiarism:
Plagiarism is the presentation of the expressed thought or work of another person as though it is
one's own without properly acknowledging that person. You must not allow other students to copy
your work and must take care to safeguard against this happening. More information about the
plagiarism policy and procedure for the university can be found at:
http://federation.edu.au/students/learning-and-study/online-help-with/plagiarism.
Your support material must be compiled from reliable sources such as the academic resources in
Federation University library which might include, but not limited to: the main library collection, library
databases and the BONUS+ collection as well as any reputable online resources (you should confirm
this with your tutor).
Federation University General Guide to Referencing:
The University has published a style guide to help students correctly reference and cite information
they use in assignments. A copy of the University's citation guides can be found on the university's
