E n a bling ob j ec t i v e s 1. Analyse a business problem 2. C onfigure, and deploy a cloud based smart/ IoT (Internet of Things) application to simulate the problem 3. Design a Node - RED based visual tool to debug the telemetry data from simulation General Information The purpose of this assignment is to create a cloud based simulating environment which will help to identify/understand the problem stated in the given case study using analysis tools available in IBM Bluemix. In assignment two, you are working in a group of 3 - 4 students but you are welcom e to attempt the assignment individually . By doing this assignment, you will learn to use skills and knowledge of emerging technologies like cloud computing, IoT , to simulate a business scenario to capture operational data and share with a visualization to ol. You will acquire a good understanding of smart application design in a cloud environment for efficient application configuration and deployment . What do you need to do? The assignment require s you to do the following - • Create a group of 3 - 4 students ( or work individually) and choose a business case from case studies given in page three (3) of this document . Remember your assignment two will be the base work for your assignment three which is individual work . • Download the starter source code given with this assignment to configure, and deploy a cloud based smart/IoT (Internet of Things) application to simulate the business case . The app need s to address all required milestones mentioned in your chosen case study. • Each of the members of the group need to deploy the app separately in their own Bluemix account . • Finally prepare a report according to given format and specifications below and submit it in Moodle. You need to submit only one report as a group. 2 Report format and specifications - You are required to submit a written report in a single Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) document. There is no word limit but any unnecessary information included in the report may result in reduced marks . The report must contain the following sections (feel free to add one or more sections if necessary): • Cove r page/title page and Table of contents • URL (of the app) and login details of all group members . • Introduction • The step by step process you have follow ed to configure and deploy the smart app for business case simulation. You may choose to include one or both sub - points below to enrich your report o Screenshot / s of each step o A link to a video of you working while deploying and configuring (i.e. screencast) • Justification o How does the app address all required milestones mentioned in your chosen case study? o How does this simulation help to analyse and identify probable solution of the business problem? • Telemetry – o What are the telemetry information collected by the debug system of the simulation? Present them in a table. o Are t hese information appropriate to find the business problem? Why or why not? • Difficulties you faced – o What are the difficulties you faced during the process of app deployment and data collection using debug? o How did you address those difficulties? • Conclusion • References Plagiarism Checking Information It is VERY important that you do not copy content directly from either the text or Internet resources: this assignment is to be in your own words. You will lose marks if you do not use your own words! Actual plagiarism will result in the instigation of the student misconduct process. On uploading your assignment for the first time you will be able to immedia tely see your similarity score. However, a 24 hour delay exists for the release of similarity scores for the submission of successive items (drafts). To be clear, the delay will not apply to your first draft which will receive a Turnitin similarity score as soon as possible. This mandatory delay was implemented by Turnitin to minimise misuse of the similarity - checking service by students who were simply modifying their submissions to avoid match detection and without citing sources appropriately. 5 Telemetry – • What are the telemetry information collected by the debug system of the simulation?
