'''Warmup:'''
 
# Think of 2 examples of specific computer systems that balance cost and performance.
 
#* i.e. examples where there is some hardware or software sacrifice to save money because the extra functionality or performance is not worth it
 
#* e.g. GPU on an ebook reader
 
# Describe what happens when each of the following hardware resources are limited (i.e. lacking/not enough)
 
## Limited CPU
 
## Limited RAM
 
## Limited GPU
 
## Limited network bandwidth

** [http://xmltwo.ibo.org/publications/DP/Group4/d_4_comsc_tsm_1201_2/IA9en/Documentation/Crit_D_Evaluation.pdf Criterion E Example]
 
* This criterion should be completed as two parts (headings)
 
*'''Evaluation of the product''' (you should be able to do some of this by Monday)
 
** The evaluation of the product should refer directly to the success criteria in Criterion A, feedback from the client/adviser, as well as any other appropriate feedback obtained.
 
** You should basically demo your product to multiple people and have them comment on each success criteria
 
* '''Recommendations for the future development of the product''' (you should be able to do this by Monday)
 
** The student will use the feedback and the evaluation of the specific performance criteria to recommend possible future developments to the product. These recommendations should explain the benefits of these developments.
 
** You should basically ask in your feedback, suggestions for extending or enhancing the project.  Explain why each new development would be good.
 
** You should have at least 2 minor improvements and 2 major improvements

'''Warmup:'''
 
# Given the following scenario: The light bulb(L) is ON if switch A (A) is OFF and switch B (B) is ON and either switch B (B) is OFF or switch (C) is ON

* Criterion D - Functionality and extensibility of product
 
** This criterion should be completed as two parts and '''does not require any additional written documentation'''.
 
** '''Functionality of the product'''
 
*** The student must use the video to demonstrate the product functioning (2-7 minutes in length). This evidence will be supported, where possible, by the product on the CD-ROM/DVD or USB.
 
*** i.e. demo the your program's functionality
 
** '''Extensibility of product'''
 
*** The student should design the product so that it can be maintained by another party and/or be further developed. Therefore the design of the product should include appropriate folder and data structures, intuitive file and/or class naming conventions and, where appropriate, comments in the code.
 
*** i.e. your program should be well-organized (good filenames, clean code, good variable names, comments)
