Design Refining (Notes organised somewhat haphazardly)

• No persistent 'games' stored in the server - States to be held in the database (No, not every possible state (!))
• Communication Manager
  • Incoming and Outgoing queues
  • Pools of threads
• Use of assignment code from 351
• Message types
  • Another type to be added onto ones previously discussed - image request
  • Engine sends image data to client with information on possible interactions with image etc - image only needs to be sent if the client doesn't already have it
  • Client can change size
• Chat in real time - no logging of chats
• Moves sent to communication manager, queued and sent to server for processing

Iteration 0

• Testing
  • To be distributed evenly amongst team members
• Division of Labour
  • Split into pairs (Danver and Joey will each work on their own - because they're uber)
    • Dan & Geoffrey - Game
    • Shruthi & Katherine - Client
    • Joey - Data Manager
    • Danver - Connection Listener

Architecture

Diagram: Shan't be placed here (Who knows who reads these ¬_¬)
Group TODO: Specifications

Timelines

Completion date of iteration 0: Next Friday (Including specifications etc)
Stable Version: Ideally to be completed by Week 4 (currently in Week 2)
After: Once the stable version has been implemented, group can be split half/half where one half works on alpha version and the other half will work on debugging and perfecting the stable version.
Due Date: 29th August (last day before mid semester break).

Next Meeting

• Tuesday 5th of August. (Usual time of 10:00am - 12:00pm)
