Stakeholders
Replaced the following stakeholders with the new concept of Surgical Instrument Tracking.
Households
Marketing concerns: This should not be too much of an issue as a locator device would mostly be used around the common household. There would be a large demand for the product(depending on price of course), as it could be used for location of a range of objects: from keys, to very small pets. There would also need to be carefull checking of product costs, the main device requires other ID tags, which may be lost (with the item they're attached to) so there will need to be checking on amounts produced initially, before the product takes flight.
Other stakeholders: Manufacturer's, which in turn would help with maintenance if broken.

Inventory Management
Fare Evasion
To utilize the RFID tag on public transport systems to detect commuters committing fare evasion.
This will be especially useful in NSW with its planned roll-out of the Tcard which is the new cashless integrated ticketing system for bus, train, ferry, light rail and monorail services.
The limitations to this technology is that it can only be implemented with existing transport systems that have infrastructure of the smart-card technology utilizing RFID.
The stakeholders will be the transport department of the state governments as the large sectors of public transportation are government owned as opposed to the private sectors of public transport transportation.
Urgent - Presentation Milestone
Group meeting September 13
All group members have agreed on completing their below assigned tasks by Monday, 17 September, and to review everyone else's work by Wednesday morning, 19 September.
There will be another group meeting at 9AM in the library on Wednesday, 19 September to complete the presentation for the next days class.
Task Assignments

Final Design Milestone (10 marks)
This milestone represents the end of the Transition phase of the MUP. You should have completed your analysis and design work. The documentation on the Wiki should include all of the analysis and design artefacts described earlier, including usage scenarios, use cases, class diagram, class descriptions (Responsibilities and Collaborators), sequence (and/or collaboration) diagrams, contracts for class operations, unit test case designs based on contracts, and system test cases based on use cases.
Usage scenarios
Replaced the following usage scenarios with the new concept of Surgical Instrument Tracking.
- George is in a rush and needs a pen. He goes to the large store room and uses the Tagged object finder and quickly locates a pen.
- Husband has lost his precious TV remote and needs the locator to find the tagged remote.
Fare Evasion
When commuters board a transport or arrive at a transport station, they must swipe their smart-card to register the start of their trip. When the commuter ends their trip, they must then perform another swipe of their smart-card to register the termination of their trip.
If a commuter fails to register their starting point of their trip then they will be committing fare evasion. These commuters can be recognized by the ticket inspector through their mobile device.
Lets take a train for example, currently a ticket inspector must navigate from one end of the train to the other, requesting all passengers to present their tickets. With the new smart cards in place, the ticket inspector no longer needs to ask commuters to present their tickets. All they need to do is make their way from one part of the train to the other monitoring their mobile phone.
The mobile phone they carry will be issued with an application that will display all smart-cards that have not registered the start of their journey. This will allow ticket inspectors to isolate all commuters committing fare evasion. From asking every passenger to present their tickets, the ticket inspector now only has to ask the few people in the vicinity of the smart-card that is detected by the application provided on the mobile phone.
