In this second part of the project, you will
further evolve some of the aspects already
addressed in the first part. Then you need to
describe the new design, especially the changes
you made in response to user feedback on the
early stages of the prototype.
You also need to describe the prototype;
try to keep the design issues mentioned above
separate from more technical implementation
issues. You must also include instructions for
the installation and use of the prototype.
Finally, you need to describe the testing and
evaluation plan to be carried out by the
evaluation team.

Project Description
This can be a revised version from the first part.
User Feedback
Describe the reactions of users to the initial
prototype of your system. If appropriate, indicate
changes in user requirements and design criteria,
and how they affect the design of the system.
System Design
Describe the overall design of your system, as much
as possible independent of the actual implementation
of the prototype. Concentrate on the aspects of
the system that are most relevant to the user;
for the functions "behind the scene", a broad
sketch is sufficient. This description should
be usable as the basis for an implementation
of the full-scale system, possibly with different
tools and technologies than those used for
the prototype.
Prototype and Implementation
In this section, you describe the actual prototype,
and the methods, technologies, tools and development
environments used for its implementation.
It should only be detailed enough for a skilled
person to install, test and evaluate your prototype;
it should not be a complete documentation of the
implementation.
Testing and Evaluation Plan
The testing and evaluation plan specifies
how the functionality, performance and
usability of your system is to be assessed.
Specify three different evaluation methods,
explain why they are suitable for your particular
project, and describe how they should be carried out.
Make sure that your plan is consistent with the
(possibly revised) evaluation criteria defined
earlier. And again keep in mind that the actual
evaluation will be carried out by a different team,
who will have to rely on your instructions.
Note: You may have to read the respective
chapters of the textbook before the evaluation
methods are discussed in class in order to
be able to do this part of the project documentation.
