Term Project: ATM (Automated Teller Machine) System

Objective: The project to be designed will control a simulated automated teller machine (ATM) having a magnetic stripe reader for reading an ATM card, a customer console (keyboard and display) for interaction with the customer, a slot for depositing envelopes, a dispenser for cash (in multiples of $20), a printer for printing customer receipts, and a key-operated switch to allow an operator to start or stop the machine. The ATM will communicate with the bank’s computer over an appropriate communication link. Design the ATM system in detail with the architectural design. Use use cases, sequence diagrams, class structural models and behavioral models.

 select an organization that has leveraged Data Mining technologies in an attempt to improve profitability or to give them a competitive advantage.

Research the organization to understand the challenges that they faced and how they intended to use Data Mining to overcome their challenges. The paper should include the following sections each called out with a header.

• Company Overview: The section should include the company name, the industry they are in and a general overview of the organization.

• Challenges: Discuss the challenges that limited their profitability and/or competitiveness and how they planned to leverage Data Mining to overcome their challenges.

• Solution: Describe the organization’s Data Mining implementation and the benefits they realized from the implementation. What was the result of implementing Data Mining? Did they meet their objectives for fall short?

• Conclusion: Summarize the most important ideas from the paper and also make recommendations or how they might have achieved even greater success.

The paper must adhere to APA guidelines including Title and Reference pages. There should be at least three scholarly sources listed on the reference page. Each source should be cited in the body of the paper to give credit where due.

Re-read the final project guidelines.  These can be found in Assignment 7.

Reiterate the information from your first discussion by submitting the following information: your major, your pathway, what is your realistic future desired job. Then, choose, share, and briefly discuss the topic you would like to use in your final project.

*Consider that your final project should answer the following: Choose a social, cultural, or ethical issue related to your field of study. Chose ONE area to focus on. 

Review the CGS1060 lib guide (from the online librarian) to help you narrow down your topic.

APA formated document, describing the specific aspects from the Challenger accident that helps us better understand the importance of effective data visualization. 

Also, complete the following activity:

• Re-create at least 1 visual aid from Tufte’s article that you believe would better describe the dangers surrounding the launch.
• Expound upon Richard Feynman’s congressional investigation and articulate a better argument as to the cause of the accident.
• What did you learn from this case study?

You are required to cite this week’s assigned readings in your paper. You may also cite prior week’s reading assignments and external sources if you wish.

Use the following headings to organize your paper: Introduction, Question 1, Conclusion, References.

• References MUST be cited within your paper in APA format. Your reference page and in-text citations must match 100%. Papers without in-text citations will earn failing grades.
• Always include a cover page and reference page with all submissions
• Your paper must have headings in it. For discussion posts Introduction, Prompt/Question, and Conclusion will suffice as headings.  
• Provide the EXACT web link for all online sources – do not provide just the home page, but the EXACT LINK – I check all sources
• No abbreviations, no contractions – write formally
• Write in the third person formal voice (no first or second person pronouns)
• Write MORE than the minimum requirement of the word count assigned
• As always, the word count is ONLY for the BODY of the paper – the cover page, reference page, and / or Appendix (if included) do not count towards the word count for the paper
• Indent the first line of each new paragraph five spaces
• Refer to the example APA paper in the getting started folder under the content tab if you need an example. Also, a power is provided under the information tab that addresses APA format.
• Use double-spacing / zero point line spacing, a running header, page numbers, and left justify the margins.
