IT 510 Module Two Case Study
You are employed in the corporate IT department of URCovered, Inc., which is one of the largest major auto insurance companies in North America. Based on a
yearlong study, your company management has identified a mobile application as an opportunity to improve customer service in the area of claim management.
There are both positive and negative arguments presented by management on how the mobile application can influence customer relationships. As a result,
management decided to form a dedicated committee to study the problem further. The committee has two months to complete the study and will then return
and present their results to management. Based on the additional study results, management believes they will be able to make a much more informed decision
that is in the best interest of both the company and its customers.
As an IT business analyst, you are selected by management to perform the IT study of the mobile application. You will follow the IT company standard project
process to complete the outputs supporting the initiation and discovery steps. The resulting output model will be presented to management for a GO/NO GO
decision. In the event there is a GO decision, the model output will be used as input to the remaining project steps of construction, verification and validation,
and closeout. In the event of a NO GO, the resulting output documents will be archived accordingly and the project will move to closeout.
The following information was noted during management meetings and should be able to get you started:
In the monthly management meeting, one of the agenda items was to discuss the claims management system. This system is over 5 years old now and it
does a fantastic job of managing customer claims internally for case managers. The case manager is responsible for the entire workflow beginning with
the initial claim request and ending with the final customer follow-ups after a claim has been completed. The system is well integrated with accessibility
via the web for all people involved with the claim, including car repair shops, auto body, paint shops, etc. The web application screens are user friendly
however they do require a computer to access. Based on the case manager contact with customers as well as other survey based feedback channels, it
was determined that customers would prefer to use a mobile application because they don’t really use a computer any more. They found that they called
their case manager instead of logging into the web application.
As the discussion continued regarding the mobile application, the managers believed that it was a great idea. The discussion began to dive further into
details and some managers quickly recognized that maybe a mobile application would not be good for the customer relationship. The contact with the
case manager and customer was more personal. The mobile application may cause a customer to feel disconnected and ...
The document describes the design and implementation of an online examination system using PHP and MySQL. It includes sections on requirements analysis, database design, implementation, and problems encountered. The system has three modules - one for administrators, one for students, and one for a super administrator. Entity relationship diagrams and data flow diagrams are provided to illustrate the database and system design. The goal is to allow students to take exams online and obtain results immediately in a more efficient manner than traditional paper-based exams.
This document proposes the EVA (Earned Value Analysis) model and performance dashboard to help track the relative performance of modules or projects within a large, complex program. The EVA model breaks down work into detailed tasks with planned start/end dates. Actual progress is tracked by binary questions on task completion. This rolls up to expected and actual percentage completions at the module level, addressing issues with subjective status updates. The performance dashboard then ranks modules based on their performance against schedule and cost targets using EVA data. This provides program managers and sponsors with an objective tool to monitor performance and take corrective actions.

1. Executive Summary
The team was tasked with expanding the dental practice of Marley Dental Clinic, an established dentist in a non-computerized office into a digitized, computer centric office with a management system where they will be able to view appointment schedule, x-ray, face images and other imaging applications as well as videos and scanned images, intraoral cameras and web technologies. It is important to consider how changes will be handled as they occur.
Changes within the project are probable, and the goal of this change management plan is to manage them in a way that creates the smallest ripple effect possible while still meeting project goals. Change procedures will be performed through Microsoft Project Server. In general, requests will be submitted by the individual teams based on incidents, assigned work, or special request, as dictated by the situation, and annotated in the ticket.
Each team manager will then review and approve or reject the change request. If approved, the request will be allocated hours and funding from the team’s core budget, and afforded a special budget if necessary. Once complete and implemented, the change will be closed, and the totals for man hours and budget will be quantified and listed for review by the higher management teams.

Online course register system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Student course registration process in colleges involve filling registration forms manually, getting it signed by respective subject teachers, and then getting the documents acknowledged from the concerned Advisors, College Deans and Accounts Officers respectively. Finally the registration forms are submitted in the Administrative Branch. As is evident, this process is very laborious and time consuming. An Online Student Course Registration System has been developed to simplify the current manual procedure. This system has been developed using PHP and MySQL. The front-end is designed using PHP with excerpts of code written using and back-end is designed and managed through MySQL. This system software is more secured, user-friendly and less time-consuming. Basically, systems are implemented for facilitating complex manual processes and that is exactly what we are trying to achieve. System is implemented as per user requirement such as a manufacturing concern may install a plant for easing out manual processes. We have sought help from computer programming for automation of manual registration system. With the introduction of computers, every aspect of our lives has been revolutionized. When used judiciously, computers can help us save time, secure our personal information, access the required information whenever and wherever required. Keeping all these positive points in mind, we have developed an Online Student Course Registration System for easily managing the semester registration process for the student in an institution. Ours is an advisory based system. In state agricultural universities the course allocation is advisory based and more complicated. The courses are assigned according to the skill set and industry requirements. Hence, in current scenario, automated system is required for course registration of students.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Statement of Work—Project Description and
Project Product
This project aims to develop a web-based timesheet system. With this system, the employees will no longer have to manually log in. This ensures the integrity, availability, and accessibility of the data. In particular, the timesheet system will accurately record the time when the employee arrives and leaves the office. It also prevents problems with the log book being misplaced, lost, or damaged, which can mean lost Information and the timesheet system will enable any timesheet information to be easily accessed.
The high level tasks involved in the project include the gathering of requirements, the development of the application’s design, the coding of the application, the testing of the application, and the documentation of how to use the application. Each task’s deliverable must be signed off by the project’s manager and major stakeholders for them to be considered complete or approved.
The project will be divided into the following phases; the design phase, the completion of the login module; the completion of the timesheet module, the completion of the payroll module, the system’s pilot testing, the training of the employees, and the timesheet system’s rollout in the entire company.
· In the design phase, the requirements will be gathered by obtaining information regarding the company’s processes with regards to their timesheets. The employees and managers will be asked, through survey questionnaires, one-on-one interviews or focus groups, about things such as the procedures for logging in, the procedures for filing a leave, and others. They will also be asked about the problems they encounter with the current manual processes and how their tasks can be made easier.
· In the Login Module phase, the project team will be focused on completing the application features that will be responsible for keeping track of the employees’ login and logout times. This phase will involve the coding of the module, its testing, and its documentation. The programmers or software developers will run their codes on a test server so that the testers and technical writers can access the application even while it’s still in development.
· Now the developers can start coding the timesheet module. This module will allow the employees to enter their tasks for the day. This module will also track the employees’ leaves and will have report generating capabilities. The software developers will also fix any bugs found by the testers, and the technical writers will send the module’s documentation for review until it gets approved.
· The payroll module phase will not entail the development of features that the employers can actually use for keeping track of their timesheets. It will involve the development of back end feat ...

Task 1.
1. Use case is a type of tool that is used for analyzing systems in order to identify, organize and clarify systems and their requirements. A use case diagram will thus be defined as a graphical presentation of the elements of a system and how these elements interact in performing the required objectives.
Use case has two types of actors:
Primary actors. These are the ones that the system shall provide services to. They include customers.
Secondary actors are those that manage the system in providing services to the customers, and they include system administrators.
2. <<include>> relationship is used in extraction of use case duplicated use case fragments in multiple use cases. An example is where a user accesses the ATM. The first step is pin, which then grants them access to main menu.
<<extend>> relationship applies where a conditional step is to be added to another use case step that is first class, and is not necessarily a step requirement. An example is when a user in an ATM wants to monitor their accounts. Once the main menu is provided, he or she would be able to monitor the balance, and another option of withdrawing would be an extension or addition to the base use class.
3. Encapsulation is the process of combining data and functions of a program into one component. It is used in protecting codes and data from being accessed randomly by other codes that are defined outside the class. An example in java is where getters and setters are used by the public methods in order to access class fields from outside the java.
Information hiding is the process of differentiating design functions and decisions in a computer program which are vulnerable to change, from modification by other programs. An example is where a programmer decides to create an application for managing a database. The programmer retains the information to modify the program while only releasing the part of the program used to access basic database functions to the public.
Polymorphism refers to the use of one interface to access various entities of different types. An example of polymorphism is where various data types are defined for a particular function, and the computation or data modification done using the best data type method among those defined.
Data abstraction is a methodology used in defining the methods of interaction with the system, starting from easiest tending to the most complex interaction method, with the very difficult ones suppressed. An example is where a programmer inputs data for coding, all the data input is basically plain, and the complex part of data representation by the code is not portrayed on the screen for the programmer.

The project to be implemented involves the development of Bank Management Software and entails the use of the waterfall model. Selecting a methodology is essential since it gives a framework of the overall process and associated project documents as well as the deliverables that will control the project development cycle from start to close. The waterfall model ensures that the development phases flow seamlessly and is subdivided into separate sequential stages where the result of the preceding phase becomes the input of the succeeding phase.
In the waterfall model, the development team moves through the stages of development. The phases include; Analysis, Requirements Specification, Design, Coding, and Implementation, Testing and integration. The sequence flow from one phase to another in a top to bottom fashion. Theoretically, all the requirements are initially specified as well as the scope of the project. The app is designed according to the requirements where it is implemented and tested devoid of any modifications. The final product is then delivered to the customer.
Development phases for the project include:
· Requirements gathering and elicitation where the system requirement objectives are met. The user requirements for the system will entail Financial / Management Accounting, Treasury and Risk Management as well as Bank Communication Management.
· The system design phase will enable proper determination of the hardware and software requirements that describes the entire system architecture.
· The Implementation phase involves the development of application modules which are tested separately to establish their functionality.
· The Integration and Testing phase will entail the integration of the individual modules into a single system which is then tested as a single system. Also, user acceptance testing is done at this phase
· System implementation phase. This phase follows the successful integration and testing phase where it is deployed.
· The maintenance phase occurs after the system is implemented to correct or add new modules to meet customer’s changing needs or scope creep.

CUSTOMER CARE ADMINISTRATION-developer-2000 and oracle 9iAkash Gupta
This document discusses a project titled "CUSTOMER CARE ADMINISTRATION". The project aims to develop a system to handle all aspects of customer relationship management, including registering customer complaints, assigning complaints to agents for resolution, tracking complaint status, and generating reports. The system will use Developer 2000 for the front-end and Oracle 9i for the backend database. An analysis of the current manual system identified needs for the new automated system, including more efficient complaint handling, real-time complaint status visibility, and report generation for management.
The document describes two projects in a portfolio: a mobile communication system project and an internal evaluation system project. The mobile project involved developing an application for a school to enable communication between administrators, teachers, and parents. The technologies used were ASP.NET and SQL Server. The evaluation system project automated the internal evaluation process for a college using PHP and MySQL to allow adding, modifying, searching, and deleting student records and generating reports. It included modules for registration, login, record management, and viewing/searching records.

Online course register system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Student course registration process in colleges involve filling registration forms manually, getting it signed by respective subject teachers, and then getting the documents acknowledged from the concerned Advisors, College Deans and Accounts Officers respectively. Finally the registration forms are submitted in the Administrative Branch. As is evident, this process is very laborious and time consuming. An Online Student Course Registration System has been developed to simplify the current manual procedure. This system has been developed using PHP and MySQL. The front-end is designed using PHP with excerpts of code written using and back-end is designed and managed through MySQL. This system software is more secured, user-friendly and less time-consuming. Basically, systems are implemented for facilitating complex manual processes and that is exactly what we are trying to achieve. System is implemented as per user requirement such as a manufacturing concern may install a plant for easing out manual processes. We have sought help from computer programming for automation of manual registration system. With the introduction of computers, every aspect of our lives has been revolutionized. When used judiciously, computers can help us save time, secure our personal information, access the required information whenever and wherever required. Keeping all these positive points in mind, we have developed an Online Student Course Registration System for easily managing the semester registration process for the student in an institution. Ours is an advisory based system. In state agricultural universities the course allocation is advisory based and more complicated. The courses are assigned according to the skill set and industry requirements. Hence, in current scenario, automated system is required for course registration of students.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Statement of Work—Project Description and
Project Product
This project aims to develop a web-based timesheet system. With this system, the employees will no longer have to manually log in. This ensures the integrity, availability, and accessibility of the data. In particular, the timesheet system will accurately record the time when the employee arrives and leaves the office. It also prevents problems with the log book being misplaced, lost, or damaged, which can mean lost Information and the timesheet system will enable any timesheet information to be easily accessed.
The high level tasks involved in the project include the gathering of requirements, the development of the application’s design, the coding of the application, the testing of the application, and the documentation of how to use the application. Each task’s deliverable must be signed off by the project’s manager and major stakeholders for them to be considered complete or approved.
The project will be divided into the following phases; the design phase, the completion of the login module; the completion of the timesheet module, the completion of the payroll module, the system’s pilot testing, the training of the employees, and the timesheet system’s rollout in the entire company.
· In the design phase, the requirements will be gathered by obtaining information regarding the company’s processes with regards to their timesheets. The employees and managers will be asked, through survey questionnaires, one-on-one interviews or focus groups, about things such as the procedures for logging in, the procedures for filing a leave, and others. They will also be asked about the problems they encounter with the current manual processes and how their tasks can be made easier.
· In the Login Module phase, the project team will be focused on completing the application features that will be responsible for keeping track of the employees’ login and logout times. This phase will involve the coding of the module, its testing, and its documentation. The programmers or software developers will run their codes on a test server so that the testers and technical writers can access the application even while it’s still in development.
· Now the developers can start coding the timesheet module. This module will allow the employees to enter their tasks for the day. This module will also track the employees’ leaves and will have report generating capabilities. The software developers will also fix any bugs found by the testers, and the technical writers will send the module’s documentation for review until it gets approved.
· The payroll module phase will not entail the development of features that the employers can actually use for keeping track of their timesheets. It will involve the development of back end feat ...

Task 1.
1. Use case is a type of tool that is used for analyzing systems in order to identify, organize and clarify systems and their requirements. A use case diagram will thus be defined as a graphical presentation of the elements of a system and how these elements interact in performing the required objectives.
Use case has two types of actors:
Primary actors. These are the ones that the system shall provide services to. They include customers.
Secondary actors are those that manage the system in providing services to the customers, and they include system administrators.
2. <<include>> relationship is used in extraction of use case duplicated use case fragments in multiple use cases. An example is where a user accesses the ATM. The first step is pin, which then grants them access to main menu.
<<extend>> relationship applies where a conditional step is to be added to another use case step that is first class, and is not necessarily a step requirement. An example is when a user in an ATM wants to monitor their accounts. Once the main menu is provided, he or she would be able to monitor the balance, and another option of withdrawing would be an extension or addition to the base use class.
3. Encapsulation is the process of combining data and functions of a program into one component. It is used in protecting codes and data from being accessed randomly by other codes that are defined outside the class. An example in java is where getters and setters are used by the public methods in order to access class fields from outside the java.
Information hiding is the process of differentiating design functions and decisions in a computer program which are vulnerable to change, from modification by other programs. An example is where a programmer decides to create an application for managing a database. The programmer retains the information to modify the program while only releasing the part of the program used to access basic database functions to the public.
Polymorphism refers to the use of one interface to access various entities of different types. An example of polymorphism is where various data types are defined for a particular function, and the computation or data modification done using the best data type method among those defined.
Data abstraction is a methodology used in defining the methods of interaction with the system, starting from easiest tending to the most complex interaction method, with the very difficult ones suppressed. An example is where a programmer inputs data for coding, all the data input is basically plain, and the complex part of data representation by the code is not portrayed on the screen for the programmer.
4. Difference between USDP and Waterfall life Cycles.
In USDP, the stages followed from analysis to testing, are conducted in iterative and concurrent manner while in Waterfall, these processes are done in sequ.

The project to be implemented involves the development of Bank Management Software and entails the use of the waterfall model. Selecting a methodology is essential since it gives a framework of the overall process and associated project documents as well as the deliverables that will control the project development cycle from start to close. The waterfall model ensures that the development phases flow seamlessly and is subdivided into separate sequential stages where the result of the preceding phase becomes the input of the succeeding phase.
In the waterfall model, the development team moves through the stages of development. The phases include; Analysis, Requirements Specification, Design, Coding, and Implementation, Testing and integration. The sequence flow from one phase to another in a top to bottom fashion. Theoretically, all the requirements are initially specified as well as the scope of the project. The app is designed according to the requirements where it is implemented and tested devoid of any modifications. The final product is then delivered to the customer.
Development phases for the project include:
· Requirements gathering and elicitation where the system requirement objectives are met. The user requirements for the system will entail Financial / Management Accounting, Treasury and Risk Management as well as Bank Communication Management.
· The system design phase will enable proper determination of the hardware and software requirements that describes the entire system architecture.
· The Implementation phase involves the development of application modules which are tested separately to establish their functionality.
· The Integration and Testing phase will entail the integration of the individual modules into a single system which is then tested as a single system. Also, user acceptance testing is done at this phase
· System implementation phase. This phase follows the successful integration and testing phase where it is deployed.
· The maintenance phase occurs after the system is implemented to correct or add new modules to meet customer’s changing needs or scope creep.

CUSTOMER CARE ADMINISTRATION-developer-2000 and oracle 9iAkash Gupta
This document discusses a project titled "CUSTOMER CARE ADMINISTRATION". The project aims to develop a system to handle all aspects of customer relationship management, including registering customer complaints, assigning complaints to agents for resolution, tracking complaint status, and generating reports. The system will use Developer 2000 for the front-end and Oracle 9i for the backend database. An analysis of the current manual system identified needs for the new automated system, including more efficient complaint handling, real-time complaint status visibility, and report generation for management.
The document describes two projects in a portfolio: a mobile communication system project and an internal evaluation system project. The mobile project involved developing an application for a school to enable communication between administrators, teachers, and parents. The technologies used were ASP.NET and SQL Server. The evaluation system project automated the internal evaluation process for a college using PHP and MySQL to allow adding, modifying, searching, and deleting student records and generating reports. It included modules for registration, login, record management, and viewing/searching records.

8 Best Automated Android App Testing Tool and Framework in 2024.pdfkalichargn70th171
Regarding mobile operating systems, two major players dominate our thoughts: Android and iPhone. With Android leading the market, software development companies are focused on delivering apps compatible with this OS. Ensuring an app's functionality across various Android devices, OS versions, and hardware specifications is critical, making Android app testing essential.
Consistent toolbox talks are critical for maintaining workplace safety, as they provide regular opportunities to address specific hazards and reinforce safe practices.
These brief, focused sessions ensure that safety is a continual conversation rather than a one-time event, which helps keep safety protocols fresh in employees' minds. Studies have shown that shorter, more frequent training sessions are more effective for retention and behavior change compared to longer, infrequent sessions.
Engaging workers regularly, toolbox talks promote a culture of safety, empower employees to voice concerns, and ultimately reduce the likelihood of accidents and injuries on site.
The traditional method of conducting safety talks with paper documents and lengthy meetings is not only time-consuming but also less effective. Manual tracking of attendance and compliance is prone to errors and inconsistencies, leading to gaps in safety communication and potential non-compliance with OSHA regulations. Switching to a digital solution like Safelyio offers significant advantages.
Safelyio automates the delivery and documentation of safety talks, ensuring consistency and accessibility. The microlearning approach breaks down complex safety protocols into manageable, bite-sized pieces, making it easier for employees to absorb and retain information.
This method minimizes disruptions to work schedules, eliminates the hassle of paperwork, and ensures that all safety communications are tracked and recorded accurately. Ultimately, using a digital platform like Safelyio enhances engagement, compliance, and overall safety performance on site. https://safelyio.com/

Measures in SQL (SIGMOD 2024, Santiago, Chile)Julian Hyde
SQL has attained widespread adoption, but Business Intelligence tools still use their own higher level languages based upon a multidimensional paradigm. Composable calculations are what is missing from SQL, and we propose a new kind of column, called a measure, that attaches a calculation to a table. Like regular tables, tables with measures are composable and closed when used in queries.
SQL-with-measures has the power, conciseness and reusability of multidimensional languages but retains SQL semantics. Measure invocations can be expanded in place to simple, clear SQL.
To define the evaluation semantics for measures, we introduce context-sensitive expressions (a way to evaluate multidimensional expressions that is consistent with existing SQL semantics), a concept called evaluation context, and several operations for setting and modifying the evaluation context.

2. 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS
We are interested in managing missions of the DIAG department. Among all the potential
subjects that can perform a mission we are interested to just professors. Each mission must be
preliminary authorized. A professor must compile and deliver the related request module as
expected by ordinance in art. 5 comma 8. In particular this provides the following data to be
inserted:
1. Biodata of professor,
2. Destination of the mission,
3. Start date and time,
4. End date and time,
5. Mission goal that hopefully explains the reasons about mission functionality,
6. Means of transport used,
7. Fund on which the mission is based.
The ordinance has to be delivered to missioni@diag.uniroma1.it which will occupy to deliver
that request module to the Direttore del Dipartimento, to the Responsabile Amministrativo
Delegato (RAD) , to the Responsabile dei fondi and to the Giunta del Dipartimento. These
subjects will have to verify:
1. Financial availability on the specified fund by RAD and Responsabile dei fondi;
2. Teaching suspension, if requested, in that period by Giunta del Dipartimento;
3. Mission adequacy by Direttore del Dipartimento itself.
Therefore, who signs the request module compiled by professor is:
1. Direttore del Diparitmento;
2. Responsabile dei Fondi;
3. Giunta del Dipartimento in the case that professor has requested teaching suspension.
If the professor asks for the usage of special means (taxi or rented means) it has to be accepted.
If he/she specifies that wants to use own means, 24 hours before mission starts he/she has to
send the insurance benefit to missioni@diag.uniroma1.it (previously requested). This latter
will provide to authorize the own means usage as reported in article 8 of the ordinance. For
foreign missions, the professor may ask the alternative treatment instead of the reimbursement
request at the mission request time. The alternative treatment computation is performed
by missioni@diag.uniroma1.it. If the professor requires a mission variation (before going in
mission but after the Direttore has already accepted the first authorization module) then it
has to fill the provided field in the expected module and deliver anew that request which will
2
3. have to be signed by all the subjects mentioned above. In the case the professor requests the
preview of 75 % of the expenses he/she has to carry out to give an estimation of total mission
cost. This preview can be granted at least 30 days before the mission starts. Furthermore,
if the mission is not performed that preview has to be paid back. The preview cannot be
given to someone who has debts with University (for the law).missioni@diag.uniroma1.it
will decided wheter granting it or not. Whenever the granted preview will be greater than
the effective total cost of the mission requested in the reimbursement, the professor will
have to give back the difference. At the end of the mission, the professor can start with the
reimbursement request procedure (if he/she did not requested the alternative treatment). The
reimbursement has to contain a detailed description of all the expenses. Afterwards it has to
be sent to missioni@diag.uniroma1.it again within 6 months after the end of mission (with
related invoices). In the case that the mission has been not performed the professor has to
provide to cancel all the reservations and he/she can request a reimbursement without already
repaid expenses.
2 BPMN FORMALIZATION OF THE PROCESS
In the process formalization we identified four different pools:
1. Professore: represents the workflow of a single professor that requests, performs and
asks for the reimburse of a mission;
2. missioni@diag.uniroma1.it: represents what the responsible of missions management
has to do in order to allow professors to go in mission;
3. Controllori: this is the complex one and involves three lanes referred to Direttore, Re-
sponsabile amministrativo delegato and Responsabile dei fondi. These subjects occupy
to check whether all the conformance principles are satisfied;
4. Giunta del dipartimento: represents the workflow that is triggered just whether a teach-
ing suspension is requested by professor.
We preferred to put out the pool Giunta del dipartimento just because it seems more logical
than putting it into the Controllori pool as a lane. In fact, Giunta is activated not every time as
it would be a seprated entity (that has to meet) for special cases.
What we can think to do is ideally dividing the process execution over time. Therefore we can
identify two scenarios:
1. mission authorization scenario where all the system parts work in order to allow profes-
sor to go in mission;
2. reimbursement reception where all the parts work in order to grant the expenses reim-
bursement to the professor.
With this in mind we want to point out the usage of data objects and database ones in the
model. We have just two data objects:
3
4. • Richiesta autorizzazione that regards the first time moment of our process (as described
before) and it passes thorugh activities until its state becomes ”approved" or ”rejected".
• Modulo liquidazione that is referred to the second part of the process and it passes
through activities till its state becomes ”verified".
As last observation the database object. We represent just one database named ”Missioni DB".
Later on this document we are going to explain how it is composed. The process control flow
can be expressed as the BPMN diagram in figure 2.1 .
3 UML CLASS DIAGRAM AND ARTIFACT
We want to represent data requirements as UML Class Diagram, shown in the figure 3.1. About
this schema we want to point out just one consideration:
we chose to represent the own means of professor as a proper class that belongs to the
disjointed and completed set of generalized classes of transport means. This because
actually, Straordinario and Normale should identify a categorical information without
any other deeper details (so it is useless to model the categorical information as classes
like Mezzo Proprio). For this reason, since Mezzo Proprio has many other information
to be managed, we model it as a class.
Now we have to link the two models: this means that every atomic activity and every message
payload must be captured in terms of UML Class Diagram. For this reason we have to set the
Artifact as shown at the end of this paragraph. The artifact is the set of process variables used
to store some extra information in order to properly carry out the process itself. For example,
in our case, the artifact is based on:
• all the boolean variables in charge of taking decisions over BPMN model gateways, in a
way that they allows to decide the correct branches to take at each time.
• A reference to an instance of Missione from which we can navigate through the entire
diagram.
• One variable referred to the effective chilometers to be confirmed by professor.
• A float field to hold the possible case in which the expenses preview will not be used
entirely and then it will be paid back to the fund.
Now we have in place the entire information model made up by UML class diagram and the
artifact itself.

5. 4 DATA MANIPULATION PART
For a correct representation of the process, we created a database involving two tables:
• Professore formed as follows:
• Fondo formed as follows:
First of all, these two tables are the only ones to be used during the execution of our system. As
shown in the BPMN model (figure 2.1) there are some activities perform actions on database
5
6. tables. The first one is when RAD checks the financial availability for mission and affects the ta-
ble Fondo veryfing the field totale. The second one occurs when at missioni@diag.uniroma1.it
the professor debt situations gets verified. On the other hand write operation on tables occur
in several other activities as, for instance, Restituisci anticipazione, Calcola rimborso, Restitu-
isci differenza, Calcola trattamento alternativo and Concedi anticipazione that affect tables
depending on the particulare situation. On the implementation point of view we imported the
two cited entities directly from database (as replicated entities), in the Bizagi studio project.
5 IMPLEMENTATIVE CHOICES
5.1 WEB SERVICES
We integrated three Web Services in order to improve the usability of the software. These
services are:
• MezzoProprioWS: it is in charge of handling the request of own means usage. The idea
is that at the end of mission each professor that used its own means must confirm the
total amount of chilometers made.
• CancellazionePrenotazioni: it is in charge of better handling the mission annulation
requested by professor. In particular, it simulates the cancellation of reservations for
accomodation, meals and travel. Furthermore, it gives back to the professor an amount
of reimbursement (later on, we are going to explain how).
• CoperturaAssicurativaWS: it is in charge of handling the own means insurance benefits
that university has to send to professor in order to complete all the needed documenta-
tion.
The protocol we used for realizing these Web services is SOAP. The platform used for developing
is NetBeans integrated with Tomcat.
5.2 BIZAGI STUDIO
We used Bizagi studio as environment for developing the final product. Due to implementative
needs we moved our BPMN model in a single pool differentiating among lanes. In this way,
all the message exchanged between different pools have been deleted. This brings several
semplifications by preserving the sense of the process (as shown in figure 5.1). On the other
hand as already shown in figure 4.1 we built a model data by following some principles that in
somewhow Bizagi dictates. The decoupling degree between UML class diagram and Bizagi
model data is due to the fact that actually Bizagi is not interested specifically to the UML
relations. It is interested to relations among process variables we have. More precisely it is
interested to model those relations that allow us to compute all the information we need.
Actually we want to point out some important differences between what is represented in the
original BPMN modeler and what is on the unified one:
6
7. • we could not properly handle the timer event on the activity Richiedi copertura assi-
curativa since the simulation environment of Bizagi Modeler seems to leave out some
tokens (it is a technical issue of Bizagi itself).
• The same activity did not stay within the Bizagi Studio model as we implemented its
functionalities by means of web service and therefore we encapsulated it into Consegna
copertura assicurativa.
• We did not model the timer over activity Missione in the original BPMN model while
we did model it in the unified one for implementative reasons (in order to handle the
duration of the mission itself).
• We assumed that missioni@diag.uniroma1.it decides how much is the reimbursement
amount by hand instead of automating all the mechanism.
6 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF SOFTWARE OPERATION
In order to describe how the system works we have to start from notice that each single subject
of the system will log in with its own credentials. Therefore we are going to describe how
generally a mission has to be requested and reimbursement as well.
First of all, a professor that wants to request a mission has to fill all the fields of request starting
from its own biodata:
The system provides a search mechanism in order to find itself within the table Professore just
by typing own surname and automatically all the fields will be filled. Afterwards the professor
has to insert information about mission in the part that follows:
7
8. Notice that fields in this part are all requested therefore it is needed to insert them in or-
der to go on in the workflow. Next step consists on choosing whether hanging didactic work
or not. This is possible by selecting the suited field and eventually choosing the substitute
professor as done for the first step in the database table:
Now it is the moment to give information about economical aspect of mission by select-
ing the fund that the mission will affect, again by searching on the Fondo database table. On
the other hand, there exists the possibility to request the expense preview or not (and it is
requested to chose):
8
9. Last choice the professor has to do is to select which means to be used for the mission among
ordinary, special ones and own means:
Notice that all the presented field belong to one single form the professor has to fill when
he/she starts the system.
Now that all the information have been collected, the mission request will be sort to all the
other subjects of the system. Each of these entity has its own goal depending on the professor
choices. It is important to notice that whenever one subject (among Controllori) decides to
refuse the mission for some reason, the professor will receive the related motivation and the
process ends. At this point we expect that professor goes in mission. The system will provide to
him/her the possibility to interrupt the mission before the expected end date. Regardless this
possibility, the professor is going to be able to ask the expense reimbursement. In particular,
the reimbursement module is made up by the following information:
Here the professor has to state whether he/she used train or airplain for foreign mission
and specify boarding and landing time with related boarding pass. Second requested action
for who is filling the module is to give information about expense details as, for instance, about
travel expenses:
9
10. Notice that this details are present for each single kind of expenses about a mission (vari-
ous, overnight and meals). At the end of this module the professor automatically can calculate
the total cost of the mission and send the reimbursement request. On the other hand if he/she
requested the alternative treatment on authorization time, this form will not have to be filled.
In fact, in that case, professor has to just specify which means he/she used during mission and
the reimbursement will be calculated.
When whatever kind of reimbursement will be approved, professor will receive the related
notification and the system will end.
Last but not least we want to point out that there exists both the possibility that professor does
not ask for reimbursement and the possibility that the reimbursement will not be granted.
7 USED TOOLS
In addition to Bizagi (for implementing the BPMN model), we used these other tools:
• Modelio for the UML class diagram and Artifact.
• Netbeans integrated with Tomcat for developing the web services.
Moreover, we used SQLEXPRESS Server for building the database Missions.
