Choose a Business Case only for the assignment
Business Case One:
Smart application to monitor trucks movement and telemetry
AB Pty. Ltd is a delivery company who has 3 trucks to deliver different products for third parties. They have their set delivery zone which covers an area (feel free to choose an area) of Austin downtown, Texas, USA. Due to the expanding demand their trucks are always busy. Most recently, they are receiving complaints about delayed delivery and long queue of pending delivery. In the initial stage of their business a truck on average can deliver 5 times a day. However, current average for their trucks is only 3 times per day. The general manager of AB Pty. Ltd appointed a business analyst to identify potential causes of the delay. The business analyst made a number of stage one recommendations below –
• Develop a smart application to simulate the trucks movement.
• Divide the entire delivery area into two zones.
• Write a NODE-RED function node that will
o set different speed limits of the truck for each zone and outside the zone.
o change speed value( feel free to assume the speed values) when it enters in a delivery zone and change it back when it is outside of the delivery zone. You can use ID of delivery zone, entry and exit message from GeoAlert to know about their entry and exit in a specific zone.
• Set following custom properties –
o Total delivery allocated ( this field will show a delivery number allocated to the truck)
o Total delivered numbers at current time (will show number of delivery done). In this case assume that every entry in the zone is the start of a delivery and every exit in a zone is the end of a delivery.
• System should alert the management via email/Twitter, if a truck
o violated the speed limit of the zone. [ NB: Use the speed limit you have set in your assignment two] or
o finished their allocated delivery
• Create a visual dashboard using NODE-RED which will have a speed gauge and speed chart of a specific truck.
AB Pty. Ltd appointed you as an ICT professional to develop a simulated connected vehicle application for simulation in Bluemix which will address the milestones above recommended by the business analyst.
Business Case Two:
Smart application to remotely monitor a patient’s movement details
AB hospital has a physiotherapy department with 3 patients. The hospital is very renowned for their services. It is receiving increasing pressure to increase their capacity to serve more physiotherapy patients. However, their current capacity is limited to 3 patients only. Furthermore, as part of their service, they also want to collect information about their patients walking habits within the walking zone of the hospital to serve them better. They have appointed a business analyst to identify actions to address the issues. The business analyst made a number of stage one recommendations below –
• Divide the entire walking area (feel free to choose an area) in Austin downtown, Texas, USA into two zones.
• Write a NODE-RED function node that will
o set different walking speed of the patient for each zone and outside the zone.
o change speed value when it enters in a walking zone and change it back when it is outside of the zone. You can use ID of walking zone, entry and exit message from GeoAlert to know about their entry and exit in a specific zone.
• Set following custom properties –
o Total number of meters required to walk ( this field will show a delivery number allocated to the patient)
o Total number of meters walking done at current time (number of entries in the zone X 10 meters).
• System should alert the management via email/Twitter, if a patient
o violated the walking speed limit of the zone. [ NB: Use the speed limit you have set in your assignment two] or
o finished their allocated walking meters
• Create a visual dashboard using NODE-RED which will have a walking speed Gauge and speed chart of a specific patient.
The AB hospital appointed you as an ICT professional to develop a simulated connected patient’s application for simulation in Bluemix which will address the milestones above recommended by the business analyst.
