1. Assignment Brief: Analysing and Building a Banking System
4. Software Using Component and Service Oriented Cloud
Architecture (Part 2).
Aim
The aim of the second part of the coursework is to demonstrate
the knowledge and awareness of service oriented and other
latest software development technologies in a given scenario.
This should involve the following:
1. Apply technical proficiency in component, service and
modular programming.
2. Implementation the demo system using a service oriented
architecture and frameworks of your choice.
3. Produce a presentation/demonstration to discuss the used
technologies and show a working prototype.
The Problem
In order to remain competitive and be able to expand its
business ABC Banking Group must update its services to reflect
the recent advances in information and communication
technology. This will require the design and implementation of
an adaptable technology migration strategy. Currently, ABC
Banking Group system is a LAN based, able to be reached over
the web using legacy software. Thus, the Group needs a
migration strategy from a LAN based system to Cloud based
system, however such a migration requires the consideration not
only of the underlying Cloud service oriented architecture, and
its benefits, but also should reflect the main business activities
of the Group.
5. At the core of the Group’s business activities is its transaction
processing system. The system is used to define accounts and
transactions. Accounts refer to things like customers’ bank
accounts, while transactions are things like deposits and
withdrawals which are essentially time-stamped records. Each
account keeps track of the transactions that affect it. It also has
a set of attributes such as customer’s name, address, balance,
overdraft, running totals (of deposits and withdrawals)
computed from the transactions etc.
Once an account is set up, it is used by creating transactions
and by querying the attributes of the account. Transactions can
come from other systems, like direct debits, or from different
branches and they can be created by program control or can be
created by a user filling out an input screen. Customers can
access their account and conduct transactions using their
desktops, mobile phones etc.
Your task is to design new service based architecture of the
system. It is up to you how to go along the task. However, you
have to take into account the distributed nature of the problem
and the possibility of accessing account details, on the server,
using different clients and different graphical user interfaces.
These interfaces are programmed so that they communicate with
the server.
You define how an account handles transactions that are posted
to it, one way of handling transactions, is by putting them in a
list in order of their date. Queries can be from a simple
interface, from reports such as bank statements or from
programs that are creating transactions. All interactions with the
system are achieved by creating transactions and querying
attributes.
The system should be able to perform a number of operations
including creating account for every customer, holding the
6. customer’s name and address, allocating a numeric code
(account number) for every customer, balance, cost for
overdrafts, returning the statements etc. The system also should
be able to add, delete customers and work out the total number
of customers.
Coursework Documentation/Report
You are asked to address the aims and business requirements by
producing a practical report which covers:
Implementation (80%)
You are asked to implement and construct your application
using a programming language and programming environment
that supports component/service oriented paradigm.
Presentation/demo (20%)
This should include a brief discussion of of the deployed
technologies and a working prototype of your program which
should demonstrate good knowledge of fundamental
service/component oriented and modular concepts.
2. Feedback (including details of how and where feedback will
be provided)
You will receive the feedback electronically using the feedback
form (check the summary table for deadlines)
