Data Structure IT245

Description and Instructions

1. Objectives

The main objective of this project is to get familiar with designing and developing an algorithmic problem solution using data structures concepts.

2. Introduction

On this project each group of students will solve a problem to assess their understanding of data structure. Students will work in groups of 2-3 students then collect their work in one report to be submitted with the other project materials.

3. Required work

Choose an algorithmic problem related to the concepts of data structures (one that has been covered in class) and write a problem statement on it.

Examples of projects topics:

Problem Name

Suggested Data Structure

Train Schedule Manager

Doubly Link list

Student Course Scheduler

2D- Array

Social Network Connections

Graph

Shopping Cart

Singly Link list

Flight Reservation System

2D-Array

Shortest Path Finder

Graph

Music Streaming Playlist

Circular Link list

Select one of the projects Name in the table above. It is also possible to suggest new project (must be approved by course instructor).

Understand the problem.

Implement at least two solutions of the problem using data structures.

You must use at least one data structure in your solution.

Analysis the Algorithm complexity of your solutions

4. What to submit?

Project Report

a)Describe the Problem.

b)Describe the Algorithm used to solve the problem.

c)Analysis the Algorithm complexity of your solutions.

1.
You must submit two separate copies (one Word file and one PDF file) using the Assignment Template on
Blackboard via the allocated folder. These files must not be in compressed format.
2.
It is your responsibility to check and make sure that you have uploaded both the correct files.
3.
Zero mark will be given if you try to bypass the SafeAssign (e.g. misspell words, remove spaces between
words, hide characters, use different character sets, convert text into image or languages other than English
or any kind of manipulation).
4.
Email submission will not be accepted.
5.
You are advised to make your work clear and well-presented. This includes filling your information on the cover
page.
6.
You must use this template, failing which will result in zero mark.
7.
You MUST show all your work, and text must not be converted into an image, unless specified otherwise by
the question.
8.
Late submission will result in ZERO mark.
9.
The work should be your own, copying from students or other resources will result in ZERO mark.
10.
Use Times New Roman font for all your answers.
