ExCo meeting

Date : 1 November 2008
Time : 3 PM
Location : Lab5.35, SIM
Team members present : Mr. Premrajan, Xiongwei, Allen, Selamat
Team members absent: Morris (@ another work site)

Mr Prem goes through the inital Technical Documentation that was submitted. He commented on these items for editing :

• Change the project proposal title from the section in the documentation
• Add in the application flow into the documentation. This will allow readers to have an overview of the application flow rather than figuring out how the system works through reading.
• Write up more on the business model that we are planning (write up about membership and liasing with vendors). This business model also contain options that we intend to implement in the future.

Opinions from Mr Prem :

• Software to be web-based. This will increase our company's product value
• Add in the ability to access a building as a general, rather than only accessing a house. In this way, we are able to go for a major audience. (Example, residential and commercial building owners). Users are to be able to select whether they want to assess a house or building, right at the beginning of the application flow.
• As we are in the midst of building the prototype, he suggested that we do a detail database diagram (including the normalization and de-normalization of the database), before the main phase of the application programming and development begins

Informed Mr Prem on 1 of our future enhacements : ability to interactively re-locate items in the selected area. Risk and security assessments will be automatically updated as well, and the application can also straightaway suggest the security items/gadgets.

We also check with Mr Prem on items to bring / submit for the prototype demonstration on 15 November.
