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) 
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 
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 
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. Supplier lists generally include the program name, 
length, short description, channel type, and rating (see table 
2). Once this is done, the programming for each ...
