Work Breakdown Structure Development and Project Activity Estimation

This assignment consists of two (2) sections: a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and a written paper. You must submit both sections as separate files for the completion of this assignment. Label each file name according to the section of the assignment it is written for.

Imagine you have been hired to manage a project that will migrate a financial services legacy system to a Web-based cloud solution. This project will allow the organization to enhance user access from Web based clients and mobile platforms. There are approximately 1,000 users that will be accessing this financial services platform.

For this project, you will need to include tasks to upgrade existing network infrastructure to support a new Web-based cloud solution with security enhancements to maintain data integrity and availability of application. Training for the users that are staffed within four (4) regional offices is also assumed.

This project has a 60-day duration that must be represented at the top of your MS Project plan. As part of this project, it is essential that you plan the efforts required and provide estimates on what the costs and schedule may be.

Section 1: Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
Required Format (MS Project File)

•Use MS Project or an Open Source alternative, such as Open Project to:
1.Develop a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the activities of the project using a phase or deliverable approach for determining the format of the WBS. Your WBS must:
•Identify at least fifteen (15) work packages listed below five (5) major phases / deliverables.
•List a code of the accounts identifier index to describe each work package within the WBS.
2.List all the activities / tasks within your WBS, using Microsoft Project or Open Project, and:
•Present the logical succession of each activity and list predecessor and successor activities associated with each activity.
•Indent the grouped activities / tasks under each major phase / deliverable.
•Assign a milestone to represent the ending and beginning of a new phase.
•Assign realistic duration estimates for each activity. Remember that the overall project cannot exceed 60 days.
•Analyze the sequence of activities and add at least 20 predecessor and successor assignments to each activity.
•List the estimates in terms of days.
Section 2: Written Paper
Required Format (MS Word File)

•Write a one (1) page paper in which you:
3.Explain how your specific WBS could help the team in estimating, planning, and understanding project requirements, deliverables, and efforts required to meet the financial services legacy system migration.
4.Explain at least three (3) risks in the plan and how they could be mitigated.
5.Use at least one (1) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.
Section 2 of the assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

Production of Aluminium in Saudi Arabia

The task is to prepare a capstone project of two chapters about aluminium production in Saudi Arabia. Key references are provided and you can research for the rest needed. The key references are as follow:
1. Lumley, R. N 2011, Fundamentals of aluminium metallurgy: production, processing and applications, Woodhead Publishing Ltd, Cambridge, UK.
(Chapter 2 and Chapter 3)

2. Totten, G.E. and MacKenzie, D.S., 2003, Handbook of Aluminum: Vol. 1: Physical Metallurgy and Processes, Marcel Dekker, New York, US.
(Chapter 1)

You can use those references to write the about the processes in general and then focus and discuss about the technologies used in Saudi Arabia for production of both alumina and aluminium.
Other references are provided about technologies used in refining and smelting.
The task is to write about the full process of production of alumina in chapter 1, and the full process of production of primary aluminium in chapter 2. The details are as follow:
First chapter: about the production of Alumina using the Bayer alumina refinery method and its processes with focus on alumina refinery technology of the Ma’aden/Alcoa joint venture in Saudi Arabia and its features. (Some references are provided mainly from companies’ websites, I believe you might need more)

Second chapter: about the production of primary aluminium in Hall–Héroult process with focus on smelting technology (AP37 cell technology) used by Ma’aden/Alcoa joint venture. (Some references are provided but I believe you might need more)

Note: Ras Al Khair and Ras Al-Zour are the same place so don’t get confused.

Use Harvard Style referencing as provided above and make sure it is plagiarism free

Catering Calculator

The program is similar to assignment 1, but with added features. Ensure that your program has the
following features, as demonstrated in the sample output below:
• Instead of choosing basic or premium, the user will choose from various catering packages,
which are stored in memory and can be saved to and loaded from a text file called packages.txt.
• The user can add new packages to program memory. They will be prompted for the package
name, price per adult and price per child, which are all error-checked. Adding a package does
not save it to the packages file unless the user chooses to save.
• Saving replaces everything in the file with whatever packages are in memory.
• Loading a new file replaces any packages already in memory (whether added or loaded).
• For the catering calculations, the user enters the number of adults and children and then chooses
a catering package and a delivery option.
• There is a 1 in 10 random chance of getting adults at children’s prices no matter what catering
package is chosen.
• Error checking in this version is more comprehensive and your program should not crash for
any input. Integer and float inputs must be checked for valid numbers. Refer to the sample
output to see specific examples of limitations on the values for various inputs, e.g. the package
choice has to be a valid package number, and prices must not be <= 0.
• The package name must fit within 16 characters, and when packages are displayed, they should
line up in this width.
An example file (as used for the sample output below) is provided for you on LearnJCU and you must
use this format. Each line contains a package name, price for adults and price for children separated by
commas (no spaces) and a single new line character. You can assume that the packages.txt file exists
and its contents are valid, so you do not need to do any error checking for the file.

Coding
Requirements:
Part of the challenge (and assessment) for this assignment is for you to decide what programming
constructs to use to solve the problem. Here are some guidelines:
• Use functions appropriately to implement top-down design. Carefully think about the inputs and
outputs for functions and ensure that they are useful and reusable, as discussed in lectures.
• Start with one function for each menu option (except quit and instructions), plus use others as
appropriate. E.g. a function like getValidInt might be suitable and able to be used in
multiple situations. Don’t put user input or print statements inside functions unless that is what
the function is for. Think about reusability.
• Do not use global variables. Global CONSTANTS are appropriate, and you should use a
constant for the delivery costs and other suitable items.
• Include meaningful docstrings for all of your functions as according to the Python style guide:
o See: http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/ and
http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/
• Use inline comments (start with # and put them on the line above the code they are referring to)
for anything that could benefit from some extra explanation (e.g. the random discount section).
• Use exceptions (try: except:) for error-checking numbers as shown in class.
• Close any files you open, at the appropriate spots in your program.
• Use a default parameter (packages.txt) for the filename. The user is not asked for it, but having
it as a default parameter to the functions rather than hard-coding it inside the functions means
you could extend the program to use different filenames without having to rewrite those
functions at all (this is an example of extensibility – thinking ahead).
• While most of the implementation details are up to you, in order to get full marks you need to
appropriately use a list of tuples for packages and a dictionary for delivery costs.
• Learn from the marks and feedback from your first assignment. Don’t repeat any mistakes.

Sample output from the program is below and forms part of the specification. You should make your
program match this exactly (except for your name and the date). Do not add or remove anything from
the program even if you think it would make it better. You must aim to have your program work and
look just like this including spacing and formatting.

Importance of learning CPR

An Annotated Bibliography organizes your research by way of APA citations and a short paragraph about each source. For this Assignment, you will create an Annotated Bibliography for five sources related to your Final Project topic. While you are not required to use these five sources in your Final Project, finding reliable and relevant sources now will not only lessen the work in Unit 9, but it will also allow your instructor to provide insightful feedback on the sources you intend to use. A personal communication, such as the interview you conducted, will not need to be listed on the References page of your Final Project, yet it will be listed in your Annotated Bibliography for this Assignment; per APA citation format, information from a personal communication does require an in-text citation for a directly or paraphrased quote. The KUWC resources noted below have further information on citing interviews appropriately.

The following aspects are required for your Annotated Bibliography Assignment:

Title page in APA manuscript format
Your potential thesis statement for the Final Project
Five sources (one of each type noted below)
Book or ebook (full-text version, not just the abstract or preview)
Periodical (i.e., newspaper, journal, or magazine)
Video or audio clip
Interview (conducted for Unit 4 Discussion Assignment)
Internet-only source
APA citation for each source
Annotation for each source, which must include each of the following in a full-paragraph:
Brief summary of the source (no direct quotes from the source)
Evaluation of the source, including reliability and validity
Discussion about usefulness to your Final Project
All writing must be in Standard American English
Use APA manuscript format throughout the Assignment

Reflection on the Ethics of Research Practices

When conducting research with human participants, researchers must conduct themselves ethically.
Therefore, there are a few rules that must be followed. Some of these rules are listed below. Then,
there are 5 situations which might pose ethical dilemmas. Responding to 1 situation in a 1-2 page
reflection counts for one assignment and as noted above is worth up to 15 points. Responses that
are less than one full page (1 inch margins, 12-point Times New Roman font, double spaced) will
not receive full credit.

After reading through the general principles of ethical research listed below, you can select which
situation you would like to write about in a reflection paper. Based on the general principles, you
must explain how you feel about the situation, what is necessary for the researchers to do, and how
the situation could be improved.

General Principles of Ethical Research:
• Participation must be voluntary.
• Participants must be protected from undue harm.
• Informed consent of participants means they have a complete understanding of possible
risks involved in the study.
• The participants’ identity must be protected.
• Deception of participants must be fully justified and be followed with adequate debriefing.

Choices of Situations to Write about in the Reflection Paper: 1. Employees are required by their organization to participate in a study. Failure to do so could
result in retaliation by management. 2. Participants are told that there will be no physical harm resulting from participation.
However, some of the questions participants are asked could bring up emotional issues.
3. People are not clear what is expected of them when they agree to participate in the study.
4. Participants’ e-mail addresses are requested as a way to give credit to students. 5. A study looking at whether people can tell when a stranger is lying is being conducted.
Therefore, some participants will be told lies about the study.
