INFM 603 Project Plan

The goal of this document is for a team to describe the goals of their project and how they will accomplish those goals. The goals must be suitably ambitious (much more ambitious than the homework, much less ambitious than a year-long effort by a professional Web services company). Specifically, the project should be scoped to be accomplished by two people working together for 6 weeks a total of 7 hours per week. That's 84 person-hours, or roughly half a person-month of effort (i.e., the scope of the prject should be roughly what one professional could reasonably expect to achieve in half a month).

The goal of the project should be grounded in external reality, not in something that you have made up. For example, it would not be good to choose to make a database for cooking recipies if you don't know someone who needs such a database (and it woudl be good to do so if you have been thinking about starting a company that actually needs such a database.

The project plan should be about 3 pages. It should name the project, name the students, describe the computational infrastructure that you plan to use, describe the task, name the customer, describe the requirements, and include a schedule and a task division among the two team members.
