Purpose of this assignment<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Scenario: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Assume that you are planning to build a new desktop computer to play high end games where resources like high memory, higher processor and high end graphics card is needed.<\/p>\n

As acomputer expert<\/strong> you need to build a new computer system to meet your current needs.<\/p>\n

Your proposal should take the form of; (Task 1, 2)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 anoverall informative section on computer specifications related to Hardware & software<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 the detailed specifications of hardware components and features of Operating system<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 system integration testing plans<\/p>\n

Additionally, you need to produce (Task 3)<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. A Test Plan that checks the main hardware andsoftware components, using standard techniques<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 AUser Document that explains how to use the system<\/p>\n

    3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A Security Policy Document that specifies the security policyof your built system.<\/p>\n

    4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A Health and Safety documentwith conformance details for health and safety requirements<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Carry out research onlatest hardware & software with a demonstration of good technical understanding, correct referencing and an appealing presentation.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Task 1 (LO: 1.1, 3.1, 3.2, M1, M3, D2)<\/strong>a.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Depending on your needs, specify the overall system configuration of the new system (Here you just need to specify the overall specifications of hardware & software). [Assessment Criteria: 3.2<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

b.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Provide a detailed<\/strong> specification of your Hardware & software, including costing and sources. (It should specify the machine components or sub-systems appropriate to the requirement.)[Assessment Criteria: 1.1, 3.1<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

c.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Evaluate the performance of the new system [Assessment Criteria: 1.2<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Task 2 (LO: 1.2, 2.1, 2.2, M2,M3 & D1)<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

a.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Contrast the functions and features of any two type of operating systems available in the market [Assessment Criteria: 2.1<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

b.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Suggest on how your selected OS can be customised after installation. [Assessment Criteria: 2.2<\/strong>]<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

 <\/p>\n

i.<\/p>\n

Task 3 (LO: 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, M3, D2 & D3 )<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

a.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Produce a test plan that explain your strategy for testing the whole system after completeassembling and installation of OS. [Assessment Criteria: 4.1<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

b.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Produce a user documentation explaining on how to use the new built system. [Assessment Criteria: 4.2<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

c.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em>Suggest some security policy for your new system. [Assessment Criteria: 4.3<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

d.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Suggest some Health and Safety requirements in order to use the system. [Assessment Criteria: 4.4<\/strong>]<\/em><\/p>\n
