Project Phase 0 for CS6388

Please choose a project either from those suggested here or of your own that meets the requirements below.  Turn in a single page description of what your project will encompass.  This is essentially a very brief requirements document that describes what the software or hardware/software product actually does.  Again, think big.  You will not be coding this project, since there is no way you could complete 100,000+ lines of code within the scope of this course.

Your document should include:

1. An overall description of the project, such as the ones in the examples.  You should describe what the final product will be.

2. A very rough estimate of the maximum number of people that will be needed when the project is at its height.

3. A very rough estimate of the time it will take to complete the entire project.

This will not be graded.  You will be notified as to whether it is acceptable or not as being within the scope for this course.  If it is not acceptable, you will have one week to revise it such that it is.

Naming conventions: You will name your project proposal with the number of your team followed by Phase0.  For example, if I were to turn in this project as the team leader of team 1, the name would be Team1Phase0.doc.  Please use Microsoft Word for this.
