    Project Report - Common Mistakes

    Uploaded by

    j.p.renin
    This document provides guidance on key sections that should be included in a project report, including objectives, scopes, methodology, analysis, design, implementation, testing, and results/discussion. It emphasizes that the objectives should be measurable and the project can be evaluated against. The methodology section should explain how the chosen methodology will be applied to the specific project. Analysis determines requirements and tools based on literature and user research. Design provides a complete system description. Implementation describes important coding. Testing verifies components and whole system work as intended. Results compare outcomes to original objectives.

    Project Report Common Mistakes

    Objectives
    Must be something that can be evaluated at the

    end of the project. Can be further divided into two (optional):

    Project objectives
    General objectives of the project (things to be achieved during the project) Can be just one or two.

    System objectives

    Features that your system/application should have.

    Objectives
    Examples of project objectives:

    To study the RSA encryption algorithm. To design the rules to be used in deciding reasonable encryption parameters. To develop an application that can encrypt data using the RSA encryption scheme. To encrypt/decrypt 128-bit data using RSA encryption algorithm. To enable users to enter any 128-bit data. To enable users to either enter the required parameters manually or get the system to generate them automatically. To develop a simple and intuitive GUI. To enable the encrypted data to be saved in a file.

    Examples of system objectives:


    Objectives
    Not-so-acceptable objectives: To fulfill the graduation requirement of the BIT program at UNITEN. To save the operating cost of UNITEN. To promote chess as the game of choice during free time. To make the process of room assignment more efficient.

    Scopes
    Something that limits the amount of work that you have to

    do. Many students are confused about the meaning of scopes and objectives and tend to mix up between the two. Examples of scopes:

    The system is to be used by IT students at UNITEN. The scopes of the author are to manage data collection from users and to manage stocks in the inventory. The algorithm can only operate on text files. This system only works for companies that have strict working hours.

    Methodology
    Most students end-up copying the contents of

    Software Engineering text book into their report. While the review of methodology theories is essential, the main part here is to explain how do you want to apply the methodology to your development process. For example, if you choose waterfall model, then explain what do you need to do (w.r.t. to your project) in each stage of the waterfall model.

    Analysis
    This is where you make decision on what to implement for

    your project based on the literature review, surveys and interviews that you have done earlier. Among topics normally covered in this chapter:

    Summarizing the survey results. Finalizing the system requirements based on surveys/interviews done earlier. Choosing the developments tools to be used based on the literature review done. Choosing the most suitable algorithm/method to be used.

    Your are supposed to give reasons for your choices.

    Design
    The design chapter must include a complete

    description of your system in such a way that given the design to any programmer, they should be able to develop the system the way you intend it to be. Depending on the type of project, the design is presented in different ways. Examples:
    MIS DFD, ERD, Use Case Diagram Algorithm implementation flowchart Multimedia storyboard

    Implementation
    Describes the important parts of your

    development.

    System set up (if any) Important coding


    Important parts are normally what you mention in

    your system objectives. Start by giving an overall view of your implementation, then start describing individual portions.

    Testing
    Most students end up putting the theory of testing.

    DONT do this. Describe the testing that you have done, and your testing result.
    Test whether each small component is working. Test whether the whole system works as it is intended to. Use your system objectives as a guideline on what to test.

    Results and Discussion


    Summarize what you have achieved. Refer back to your project and system objectives and

    verify that you have achieved each of those. If there are objectives that cannot be achieved, describe why they cannot be achieved.
