Technical Part

1. Short project description

The name of Group 2s project is Magnificent 7+2. This is the name of the project
until the app itself has a name. Magnificent 7+2 will be an app that allows users to access
information about hours of operation for stores around The University of Texas at Dallas.
Specifically, it will highlight what restaurants are open at the time of use. The objectives for
the project are as follows:

o Identify users wishes, concerns, problems, and values in developing the

app
o Achieve business goals and objectives in a given time limit and within
the explicit budget.
o Promote device vendors and operators to adopt our developed open
standards.
o Have effective communication among the team members in order to
successfully fulfill the development of the app.

Technologies used for the project are as follows:

o XAMPP including:
o MySql for storing restaurant data
o Apache and Tomcat for local web serving
o Git for a code version control system
o PHP for retrieving and filtering data from MySql
o HTML and CSS for website structure and design
o JQuery Mobile for front-end web animations

2. List of important requirements

Application will:
have a wide variety of dining options featured
make sufficient relevant data about dining options available to users
have sufficient data storage
Coding will be done in multiple languages including but not limited to HTML,
CSS, PHP and javascript

3. Possible Risks

Cloud server might not function correctly/have enough storage stage

Coding application may take longer than expected
Communication between team members may be unclear/difficult
 Buggy code
It may be difficult to gather applicable data

In this field, you can make a note of every possible risk in project development, for example
technical issues or any other issue that may lead to missing deadlines, not staying within budget, or
not completing the project.
