2. Objective
The project for CIS336 is designed to touch all aspects of the
fundamental concepts of database design and logical data
modeling covered during the class. The project is team
centered and each team will be responsible for designing,
developing, and demonstrating the functionality of a
database created based on a defined set of business
specifications. At the end of the session, each project team
will submit the database designed by the team and
demonstrate the database's ability to deliver the required
information as outlined in the project specifications. All
aspects of the project will be covered first during the week or
weeks prior to a deliverable, and each task deliverable in the
project will be supported through the exercises and labs
done in the course.
Overview
The first thing you need to do is read through the entire
project document completely. Keep in mind that the overall
objective of this project is to be able to deliver a working
database that will be able to meet the desired outcomes as
outlined in the complete specifications. The following project
deliverables schedule outlines which weeks deliverables will
be due. A more detailed overview of each deliverable will be
presented later in this document.
Project Deliverables Schedule:
Task 1 (Due at the end of Week 3)
Task 2 (Due at the end of Week 4)
Task 3 (Due at the end of Week 5)
Task 4 (Due at the end of Week 6)
Task 5 (Due at the end of Week 7)

3. See Syllabus/"Due Dates for Assignments Exams" for due
date information.
Each project task deliverable will be graded on the merits of
that task. Tasks 1 through 3 have a weight of 30 points each.
Task 4 has a weight of 45 points and Task 5 has a weight of
65 points, with the project as a whole worth a total of 200
points (20% of your total grade points). Each task has a
defined due date and any task submitted late will be
assessed a 10-point reduction in that task's grade.
Project teams will be assigned at the end of Week 1 or the
beginning of Week 2. We will discuss each aspect of the
project in more detail within the threads. This may be the
first time that you have had to work as a member of a virtual
project team, so if you are apprehensive about this, it is
understandable. We will discuss different aspects of working
in teams as we go through the class.
Case Project Overview
Terri Smith has contacted you with regard to an
advertisement you had in the Age promoting your company's
expertise in database design and implementation. Ms. Smith
is the Managing Director of MiniQuest, a broadcasting
company based in Melbourne, Texas, that broadcasts
television via cable to a six-county area in Texas. From your
discussion with Ms. Smith, you have identified the following
information about the company:
MiniQuest currently has ten channels of five distinct types (2
Movie Channels, 2 News Channels, 2 Lifestyle Channels, 2
Documentary Channels, and 2 Sport Channels). Each channel
shows programs on a 24-hour basis. Programs can appear on
either of the two channels in a category or on both channels

4. at any time.
A guide (Weekly Showing) is produced that lists all the
programs on each channel on a daily basis. Currently all the
program scheduling for MiniQuest is done manually based on
the day the program is to air and the length of the program
provided by the supplier. Once this is done, the guides are
produced. When the Weekly Showing guide is produced,
MiniQuest finds it difficult to work out when a program
finishes so that it can determine when the next program
starts. The Weekly Showing guide is currently mailed to all
customers, but Ms. Smith wants to e-mail it in the future to
all customers (who get a free e-mail account).
In addition to the programming problem, MiniQuest is
experiencing the need to keep track of its customers in a
better manner (it currently has paper cards and is doing this
manually). Furious customers have been reporting that they
have been getting fewer channels than they have paid for. As
such, MiniQuest wants to incorporate the customer
information and the programming information into one
database that will produce a daily guide of shows to be sent
to customers via e-mail. This guide could then be
personalized to only list the shows that the customer is
paying for. In addition, only those channels being paid for will
be broadcast to that customer's home.
Ms. Smith has instigated a customer survey to determine
which channel is the favorite for each customer. The result of
this survey needs to be stored in the database along with the
date of the survey.
Billing information also needs to be stored in the database.
This information includes the billing date (either the 1st or
15th of the month, depending on when the customer signed

5. up), the package(s) the customer has subscribed to (this
determines the channels the customer receives - see Table
1), the amount to be paid monthly (based on the package(s)
subscribed to), and whether the bill has been paid. Bills are
currently sent on a monthly basis. These are currently sent by
mail, but will be sent via e-mail in the future.
Ms. Smith has visions about how the system will operate on a
daily basis. (This information is included so that you can get a
feel for how the business operates. It should also give you
some idea about how the interface would operate between
the operator and your database. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO
CONSTRUCT AN INTERFACE FOR THIS PROJECT.)
Each day the following may happen
The programs for the same day of the following week are
entered into the database (if the day was Monday then you
would be entering in next Monday's programs). The details to
be entered come from the list of programs provided by the
suppliers. Suppl...
