Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
A museum requires an automated information system for use by visitors which helps
them locate items in the museum with range of artefacts and to find out more about
items which are on display.
Due to budget cut backs the new system must run on the existing museum network,
which consists of touch screen kiosks and standard PCs.
Factors which should be taken into account in specifying and designing this system
are:
• The system must be a 'walk up and use' system for visitors who have no
training whatsoever in computer system use.
• You will need to be able to manage floor plan of the museum and the location
of items on that floor plan. Information about specific items should be
accessible by indicating their location.
• You should be able to find an art object by the type, material, age, origin, or
other categories you might discover.
• The system will have to manage multi-media information - sound, images and
video.
• It must be possible for museum staff to change the information in the system
and to add information about new exhibits.
• When you give people information about where to find an item, they respond
best to simple instructions made with reference to prominent landmarks rather
than maps which they often find difficult to read.
The aim of this project is Develop a Software Requirements Document/Software Requirements Specification (SRS) till 18.11 (Sunday).
