NOTE: The iterative design loop should be a group problem solving effort.

NOTE: Detailed design of Agent and Passive classes shouldbe allocated equitably to team members using the concept of"pair programming" one person's detailed design is reviewedand verified by the member(s) of the team.

Other Requirements• High-level design and architecture should be developed as a group effort as

follows: individuals develop a design then meet to compare designs and make modifications until a consensus is reached. The architecture and design shall follow the conventions and framework defined in the lecture notes on discrete event simulation.

• Detailed design, code and unit testing, and all documentation efforts should follow a "pair programming" paradigm; that is, each individual is assigned a class, method, section to write or test (review) – the author and tester/reviewer are always different members of the team.

• A daily log of effort shall be maintained by each team member. This shall be done using a spreadsheet similar to the one provided for Lab2. Separate rows shall be inserted in the spreadsheet for each module that has to be designed, coded or tested. Separate rows on the spreadsheet shall be inserted for each document that has to be delivered.

• OO Data Design Format and Protocol shall be followed for all virtual world classes and objects that must be input from an external file or be written to some external media.

• Reuse IOMgmt and SimMgmt as is!

Other Requirements• Post Simulation Report

Each project team shall define a simulation purpose or objective(s) that is measurable. This objective shall provide useful feedback or insight to the simulation user regarding the dynamics of the virtual world. Results provided by the post simulation report shall be useful in answering questions relating to the purpose of the simulation.

For example, in the Alien War Simulation, the purpose might be to evaluate the effectiveness of different battle strategies. In the Golf Game simulation, one might want to study the difference in scores among players with the same skill having tendencies to slice or hook the ball on each hole (what type of player does the course tend to favor?) In Texas Hold'em or any other card game, the purpose might be to evaluate the effectiveness of different playing stategies. For the Conference simulation, management may want to optimize the satisfaction of attendees as a function of the number of servers and/or the strategy they use to distribute food and drink to guests – all this while minimizing cost – what is the maximum guest satisfaction per dollar.
