SCENARIO
A Medical Practice has tasked your team to develop the requirements for their medical practice management system. The system is to allow the practice to record patient appointments and allow doctors to capture the medical history of their patients. A patient’s primary doctor can access the details of their patients at any time. However if a patient temporarily sees a different doctor, that doctor can only access the patient’s medical records during the consultation. The system must record the times when doctors are available during business hours from Monday to Friday, 8 am to 9 pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 9 am to 4 pm. The system must be available with 98% certainty during these business hours. Response times for accessing a patient’s record, which can be a maximum of 100 megabytes, must not exceed 7 seconds. At times doctors will also be able to be rostered as a locum service in shifts from 6am to 2pm, 2 pm to 10pm or 10pm to 6am. A doctor may not be rostered on for more than 40 hours per week and if rostered as a locum shift may not take another shift without a 14 hour break. The medical practice has ten doctors. Only one doctor will be rostered on a locum shift at a time. During business hours two nurses must also be rostered on and again may not work more than 40 hours per week. A doctor consults with patients in their office and must be able to access the system from their office. The history of all updates is logged and the system is backed up daily. The system logs a person out after ten minutes without use. Doctors on the locum roster are to be provided with a tablet device with mobile phone and global positioning system connections. The application on the device is to contain an emergency call button that contacts police in the event of an emergency and transmits the address that the doctor is consulting at. The tablet device application is to be able to connect with the patient records stored at the main medical practice but only show the record of the patient that the doctor is consulting with at that time. Doctors consult with patients in either fifteen minute or 30 minute blocks. In addition to a patient’s medical history, a patient’s record must include their name, address, date of birth, emergency contacts, any current medications, a photograph of their face and key details such as hair colour, eye colour, height, weight and gender. Associated with a patient but stored separately is their financial records – bills incurred, outstanding and medical insurance details. The reception staff must be able to manage appointments in person or on the phone for new and existing patients. After an appointment, the reception staff must be able to call up the billing information for a patient based on what services a doctor has provided, accept cash or electronic payment and print out invoices for the patient or their parent, guardian or carer. Note that a patient without private medical insurance receives a Medicare rebate on their services and a patient with private medical insurance receives an additional rebate but there typically is some gap fee that remains to be paid. The business manager for the Practice must also be able to access the system for basic accounting activities, transferring the data into a standard accounting package for analysis. The business manager must be able to identify the total Medicare rebate as well as the Private Insurance company rebates and invoice accordingly. The business manager must also be able to identify the costs of the business associated with the time sheets that doctors complete each week. Doctors enter their time sheets via their office computer. Finally doctors must be able to access the Internet from their terminals and as well use the specialist Pharmacy application provided by AAA Pharmacy Pty Ltd. Each doctor must be able to print scripts for patients from their office or the surgery, the receptionists print invoices for patients and the business manager prints report information. It is imperative that patient privacy is strictly respected so there must be suitable security measures in place to ensure this. The Practice has one IT administrator that can perform general IT duties for the terminals and servers but must not be able to access patient records without an additional password entered by the most senior doctor of the practice. The system is expected to handle approximately 300 patients.
QUESTIONS 1. 
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
 a. Who are the stakeholders for the system? Provide your response using the grid format and/or template given in the previous assignment. For each stakeholder identified, list what aspects of the system are of particular interest to them. Express stakeholders’ interests using the following template: “As a , I want to so that .” 
b. To collect information on the functional requirements for the system, what are some techniques that might be used? Identify what information would need to be obtained through interviews. Who would you interview? Include ten sample interview questions you would ask to obtain the required information. Ensure you obtain sufficient information to define use cases and create models. c. What are the primary functional requirements for the system? Provide your response using the format specified in lectures and tutorials. d. Identify and describe non-functional requirements for the system. Provide your response using the format specified in lectures and tutorials.

2. USE CASES 
a. Identify all the actors who will be using the system. 
b. Prepare a table containing all use cases and a brief use case description (1-2 sentences) for each use case. 
c. Draw a use case diagram for the system representing the actors and use cases identified. 

3. DOMAIN MODELLING 
a. List the domain classes for the system and their attributes. 
b. Based on the domain classes identified, develop a domain model class diagram showing domain classes with attributes, primary keys, relationships, and multiplicity constraints. 
c. Associations are the naturally occurring relationships between classes. They apply in two directions and can be read separately each way. For example two classes called Customer and Order could have the following associations: 
• A Customer can place zero or more Orders. 
• An Order must be placed by exactly one Customer. List all of the associations (in both directions) between the classes for the domain model in part b using the format specified above. 
4. USE CASE MODELLING 
a. Write a fully developed use case description for the use case Book Appointment. Assume the patient is new and making the appointment in person at the Practice. 
b. Develop an activity diagram for the use case in part a. 
c. Prepare a system sequence diagram for the use case in part a. 
d. Based on the domain model and the list of use cases developed, do a CRUD analysis for each of the identified classes. Provide your response in the CRUD table format given in Figure 5-13 of the textbook, pg 147, which shows use cases down the left and domain classes across the top of the table. 
5 Important Notes: 
• Justify and document any decisions and assumptions made. 
• You must use the templates/layouts provided in the course notes and/or textbook for any answers, tables, models, diagrams or use case descriptions created. Diagrams must conform to the UML notation used in this course. 
• Diagrams may be produced using a UML case tool or hand-drawn provided that they are legible and well laid out. It is the group’s responsibility to ensure these are appropriately presented and incorporated into the document template. 
• DO NOT include the scenario or question text in the document template. Use the template document as is. Do not modify any headings and include your responses in the area indicated. 
• Post any questions in relation to the scenario or assignment on the SA A3 Assignment – Group Q&A Forum on the course website.

Test of Association Assignment

Name________________________________

This assignment is worth 100 points. Each problem/part is worth 5 points each.

Due Date: ThursdayMay 21, 2020 by 11:59p.m. EST.

You do not have to type your responses. If you wish to provide hand-written work and scan your document, that is fine. Upload your final document with complete responses to the ‘Test of Association Assignment’ in Canvas.

1.       Some students in the masters of analytics program at Harrisburg University claim they are really good at soccer. To see whether there is an association among students and faculty in terms of the goals they can score in a soccer game, the analytics faculty invited students and teaching assistants (Ph.D. students) to play in soccer matches.  Every player was allowed to play in only one match. Over many matches, we counted the number of players who scored goals.

a.       The soccer.txt file is attached to the ‘Test of Association Assignment’ in Canvas. Import this file into R. Copy and paste your code below that shows where you imported the data. Name the data frame that you create ‘soccer.’

library(readr)

soccer <- read_csv("kochu/soccer.txt")        

b.      When you examine the data frame you imported into R, you will notice that it is not in the appropriate format for performing a chi-square test. Using some of the R categorical functions that you have learned in the course, convert the soccer data frame that you imported in part a in to a table such that the Job variable is on the rows and the Score variable is on the columns. Name the table you create ‘soccer_t’. Copy and paste your code below that created the table.

soccer_t <- read.delim("soccer.txt")

Table create below

c.       Develop the appropriate null and alternative hypothesis for testing an association among these variables. State the null and alternative hypothesis in the context of this problem.

H₀: There is no relationship between occupation with the frequency of scoring in a soccer match.

H₁: There is a relationship between occupation with the frequency of scoring in a soccer match.

d.      Run the chi-square test in R using the assocstats() function. Copy and paste your code and the output below. What is the value of the chi-square test statistic? What is the p-value related to the chi-square test statistic?

tab<- table(job,freq)

summary(assocstats(tab))

Chi-square test statistic is 12

The p-value is 0.2851

e.      Compute the χ² test statistic that you obtained from the R output in part d.  You should show your computations. Show the computations of the expected counts. Provide a final table that includes the observed counts with the expected counts in parenthesis for each cell. The final table should have row and column margin totals and a grand total.

summary(chisq.test(tab))

f.        Does the test statistic you found by hand in part e match the χ² test statistic from the assocstats() output in part d? State Yes or No.

No

g.       Use the pchisq() function in R to find the p-value associated with the χ² test statistic. Copy and paste your code below.  Does the p-value you found with the pchisq() function match the p-value from the assocstats() output in part d? State Yes or No.

YES

1-pchisq(12, 10, ncp = 0, lower.tail = TRUE, log.p = FALSE)

P value is 0.2850565 to four decimal places is 0.2851 

hence it is similar to the p-value using assocstats ()

h.      Using the p-value for this test, do you reject or not reject the null hypothesis?

Accept the null hypothesis

i.        State a conclusion back in terms of the context of the problem.

The null hypothesis is accepted because the p-value is greater than 0.05.
