Smart Clinic Appointment and Patient Management System with AI-Based Demand Prediction

This Web Applications and AI coursework requires students to design, implement and evaluate a Smart Clinic Appointment & Patient Management System for a small healthcare clinic. The application combines conventional web-development functionality with an artificial-intelligence component for predicting appointment demand. The system is expected to use Java EE technologies, including Java Servlets, JSP, Web Services and JDBC, together with a relational database such as MySQL or PostgreSQL. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… The patient-facing side of the application should allow users to browse and search clinic services by department or specialty, price, availability and duration. Patients must be able to view detailed service information, select a clinician where appropriate, choose an available date and time, enter their details and confirm an appointment. The system should also provide a booking reference and basic appointment-history functionality. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… The administrative interface focuses on operational management. Staff should be able to add, update and remove services, configure consultation duration and pricing, manage clinician working hours and appointment-slot availability, and generate basic reports. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… A separate machine-learning component requires students to implement appointment-demand prediction using WEKA regression embedded in Java. The provided sample dataset contains Year, Month, Promotions Cost and Booking Requests. Students must expand this dataset to at least 60 realistic rows, including seasonal changes and plausible variation in marketing expenditure and demand. A regression model is then trained to predict booking requests for the following year based on promotional spending, including estimation of future demand if promotions expenditure increases by 10%. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… The assessment also requires evidence of professional software-development practice. Students must provide application-design artefacts such as design patterns, ER diagrams, wireframes and sketches, document the development process, demonstrate correct use of JSP, Servlets, Web Services and JDBC, and provide evidence of implementation through code, database content and screenshots. Regular GitHub commits are required to demonstrate ongoing development. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… The final submission includes a DOCX or PDF report containing system-design and implementation information, links to a private GitHub repository and a demonstration video of no more than five minutes. The assessment is classified as Green for AI use, meaning AI tools may support tasks such as generating example datasets, suggesting code snippets and brainstorming features or tests, provided their use is clearly declared in the report. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… Overall, the coursework integrates full-stack Java web development, relational database design, web services, software engineering and machine-learning regression within a healthcare appointment-management scenario. Important: the uploaded brief states that it is for Coventry University Group students' own use and must not be passed to third parties or posted publicly. f3855340dabd17407efd386c38cfdc3… So for a public Reference Library, use an original summary like the one above rather than publishing the original brief itself.

ParkaLot Enterprise Parking Garage Management System: Software Analysis, Design and Prototype Development

This enterprise software engineering project requires students to analyse, design and prototype a centralised parking garage management system for ParkaLot Group, a UK operator of multi-storey parking facilities. The existing organisation relies heavily on manual processes, local spreadsheets and simple barrier-based vehicle counts, resulting in limited real-time occupancy information, inconsistent reservation arrangements, decentralised billing and reduced ability to optimise parking capacity and revenue. COMP1471 CW 2526 (1) The proposed system supports ParkaLot’s wider digital transformation by integrating customer registration, reservations, parking-space allocation, occupancy monitoring, contracts and billing. Customers can check availability and reserve parking through an online portal, while frequent and corporate users can establish recurring arrangements or block reservations. License-plate recognition and individual parking-space sensors enable automated access control and real-time occupancy tracking. COMP1471 CW 2526 (1) Additional functionality includes centralised electronic billing, dynamic pricing, promotional schemes and predictive decision-making for controlled overbooking. Historical usage data may be analysed to estimate no-shows, early departures and overstays, while operational dashboards support staffing, pricing and capacity-management decisions across the garage network. COMP1471 CW 2526 (1) Development is undertaken in two phases. The first uses structured analysis and design, requiring an Entity Relationship Diagram, Data Flow Diagram including a context diagram, and implementation of a prototype database. The second expands the solution using object-oriented analysis and UML, with emphasis on adaptable and reusable software design. COMP1471 CW 2526 (1) The final report covers the software-engineering **5 Ps—Problem, Process, Project, Product and People—**alongside ERD and DFD models, UML use cases, at least three sequence diagrams, a detailed class diagram and application of design patterns such as GRASP. Students must also submit prototype evidence, source code, personal reflection, peer assessment and work-contribution documentation. COMP1471 CW 2526 (1) Overall, the assessment integrates requirements engineering, structured modelling, object-oriented design, database development, design patterns, software project management, implementation and acceptance testing within a realistic enterprise-system case study. Overview word count: approximately 360 words. AI-use note: the brief permits Levels 1–4 of generative-AI use, including research and exploration at Level 4, but all final submitted text, code, diagrams and designs must be the students’ own work. Level 4 use requires disclosure, an appendix of prompts/outputs and reflective commentary. COMP1471 CW 2526 (1)

Systems Analysis and Design

Systems Analysis and Design with UML – Individual Systems Design Assignment

This individual assignment forms Part 2 of the Systems Analysis and Design with UML assessment and contributes 50% of the overall module weighting. The uploaded guidance indicates that this component should continue directly from work completed in Part 1, meaning that the analysis and design developed previously should provide the foundation for the second-stage submission. The assignment is centred on the principles and practices of systems analysis and design using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). It is intended to demonstrate the application of structured analytical thinking and modelling techniques to the development or refinement of an information-system solution. Because Part 2 follows an earlier assessment component, continuity between the original problem definition, requirements and subsequent design work is likely to be an important aspect of the submission. Relevant areas may include requirements representation, system modelling, process and interaction analysis, object-oriented design and the use of appropriate UML artefacts to communicate system structure and behaviour. The work should therefore demonstrate how analytical findings are translated into coherent design decisions while maintaining alignment with the system requirements established during the earlier project stage. The assessment is individual and therefore should demonstrate independent understanding of the selected system, its requirements and the rationale underlying the proposed design. The uploaded summary confirms that this component is worth 50% of the module and has a submission deadline of 15 May 2026 at 17:00 GMT. Note: the actual detailed Part 2 brief is not contained in this uploaded summary, so specific UML diagrams, required sections, word count and marking criteria cannot be confirmed from this document alone. Entry 2 — Intelligent User Interfaces Part 1 Field Content to enter Title Smart Study Student Assistant: Intelligent User Interface Prototype University Not specified in the uploaded guideline Subject Intelligent User Interfaces / Human-Computer Interaction Module name Intelligent User Interfaces Academic level Not specified Academic year Not specified Assignment type Presentations and Academic Posters Reference style Not specified Word count Not applicable – maximum 10-minute pre-recorded prototype presentation Amount (₹) Enter your internal project amount Key topics Intelligent User Interfaces, Human-Computer Interaction, Smart Study Assistant, Student Productivity, Adaptive Interfaces, Personalised Learning, Study Planning, Question Generation, Low-Fidelity Prototyping, User-Centred Design, User Behaviour, Learning Progress, Educational Technology, UX Design, Personalisation Assignment overview This project prototype forms Part 1 of Intelligent User Interfaces and contributes 60% of the final module mark. The assessment requires a project prototype supported by a pre-recorded presentation of no more than ten minutes. The selected project concept is a Smart Study Student Assistant, positioned within education and student-productivity technology. The proposed system is an adaptive study-planning and note-based question-generation interface. Its purpose is to help students organise academic work by combining uploaded study notes, deadlines and information about user behaviour to generate personalised study plans and learning questions. The project addresses common problems including scattered study materials, missed deadlines, unclear schedules and the lack of personalised guidance on how and when students should study. The guidance specifically states that the solution should not be unnecessarily advanced. Instead, the design should focus on how the interface will be useful to different types of users. Low-fidelity material and supporting notes are also required, indicating that the project should demonstrate user-centred design thinking rather than focusing solely on technical sophistication. The intended goal is to provide personalised study plans, questions and guidance based on the student's notes and deadlines, supporting more consistent study habits and improved organisation. Tutor feedback describes the concept as relevant and well motivated but identifies one important weakness: the system's intelligent behaviour is currently under-specified. The tutor specifically recommends clarifying how study plans and question generation adapt according to user behaviour or learning progress. Accordingly, the prototype should communicate both the interface design and the adaptive logic that makes the system genuinely intelligent and user-centred. Entry 3 — Intelligent User Interfaces Part 2 Field Content to enter Title Intelligent User Interfaces – Individual Essay University Not specified in the uploaded guideline Subject Intelligent User Interfaces / Human-Computer Interaction Module name Intelligent User Interfaces Academic level Not specified Academic year Not specified Assignment type MS Essays Reference style Not specified Word count Not specified Amount (₹) Enter your internal project amount Key topics Intelligent User Interfaces, Human-Computer Interaction, Adaptive Interfaces, User-Centred Design, Intelligent Systems, Personalisation, User Experience, Educational Technology, Interaction Design, AI Interfaces Assignment overview This individual essay forms Part 2 of the Intelligent User Interfaces module and contributes 40% of the final module mark. The uploaded guidance identifies the submission deadline as 21 May 2026 at 16:00. The assessment belongs to the same Intelligent User Interfaces module as the Part 1 prototype project. The broader module context therefore concerns the design and evaluation of interfaces that use intelligent or adaptive behaviour to improve interaction between users and digital systems. Relevant considerations may include personalisation, adaptive interaction, usability, human-computer interaction, user behaviour and the responsible design of intelligent systems. However, the uploaded summary does not contain the actual Part 2 assessment brief, essay question, required word count, marking criteria or prescribed topic. It only confirms that the assessment is an individual essay worth 40% of the final mark. For that reason, the Reference Library overview should remain general rather than claiming that Part 2 specifically assesses the Smart Study Student Assistant. If the Part 2 essay is intended to continue or evaluate the Part 1 prototype, that relationship should only be added once the actual Part 2 assessment brief confirms it. The current document explicitly provides the Smart Study Student Assistant instructions under Subject 2, while no corresponding topic instructions are shown for Subject 3. So for Entry 3, I would keep the title and overview generic until the actual KV7005 Part 2 brief is uploaded.
