The approach or the model framework of the project development is iterative and incremental development, that is, iterative and incremental development is a discipline for developing systems based on producing deliverables. Therefore, the basic idea behinds this approach is to develop a system through repeated cycles (iterative) and in smaller portions at a time (incremental), allowing developers to take advantage of what was learned during development of earlier parts of the project. Specifically saying, in incremental development different parts of the system are developed at various times and integrated based on their phases while in iterative development, parts of the system will be revisited in order to revise and improve them. Nevertheless, successful deliverables are acquired through modifying targets of the system consulted by users in order to get feedbacks. This approach is ideal for this project because the operating system involved in mobile application is flexible to be built with minimal purchase of hardware and tools required to complete. Apart from that, the time constraint happens not to be an issue of relevance because the time given is enough to iterate the phases whenever it is necessary. Notwithstanding, the research can be focused on constantly improving the system to ensure meeting the objectives of the project. 3.2 Initial Planning In this stage, a preliminary survey/questionnaire is conducted to gather early data requirements as well as general responses with regards to the proposed project. However, the targeted audience is this survey are fathers from Tricubes Berhad along with students of Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS.

Task Status Basic Framework Complete Graphical User Interface (2nd Prototype) In Progress Creation of Database (Final Prototype) In Progress Upon going through the first VIVA presentation of FYP1, the basic framework had been approved and the internal examiners are expecting to see the basic framework to be slightly modified to a better and enhance user interface that is sharp and simple. Therefore, the author is currently working on the designing of the user interface following the recommendations of the internal examiners in order to meet the standards of Android mobile application. Apart from it all, the next prototype of the system will consist of a running user interface in Tab phone with basic navigation which is currently being developed and expected to be completed at the end of February or latest beginning of April.
The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) consists of phases used in developing a piece of software. It is the plan of how to develop and maintain software, and when necessary, replace that software. In 2007 during my hospital’s transition to a new software system, I was fortunate enough to be included in the process. I did not get involved until the implementation phase, but from then on, until now, I remain very active in the process. I decided to highlight the Waterfall Model of SDLC. The Waterfall Model is a “sequential development process” with each phase continuing in a line (McGonigle and Mastrian, 2012, p. 205).
ANALYSIS ON FACTORS THAT COTRIBUTE TO THE INCREMENTAL AND TRANSFORMATIONAL QUANTUM CHANGE IN SELECTED ORGANISATION
As mobile phone prices dropped, batteries improved, and reception areas grew, more and more people began carrying these handy devices. Soon mobile phones were more than just a novelty. Customers began pushing for more features and more games. But, there was a problem. The handset manufacturers didn’t have the motivation or the resources to build every application users wanted.
When searching for the latest device you have a choice between apple, and android. These two are similar but very different. Infact these both have two different operating systems. For instance Apple uses IOS 9, apple phones can use this software. On android the software 5.0 is used. All these phones run different programs, you need to make sure that is the right phone for you. There are many different features and styles of phones you can get. Also these all come at a price. This paper will talk about all these topics to make sure you have an idea on what device you would like to buy.
Given the time, it takes to develop large sophisticated software systems it not possible to define the problem and build the solution in a single step. Requirements will often change throughout a projects development, due to architectural constraints, customer’s needs or a greater understanding of the original problem. Iteration allows greater understanding of a project through successive refinements and addresses a projects highest risk items at every stage of its lifecycle. Ideally each iteration ends up with an executable release – this helps reduce a projects risk profile, allows greater customer feedback and help developers stay focused.
As a group, we believe that the Software Design Model to be used is the V model. This model takes the approach of tackling every stage of development, completing it and testing it before moving on to the next stage. Yes, it is a time consuming process but it is suitable for small projects such as designing this phone app. It also gives the advantage of discovering any problems early so they can be rectified. We should take on the same methodical approach for the phone app testing each stage of development before advancing to the next one throughout the entire process of design, creation and implementation. Another very important reason for using this technique is to ensure full compatibility and coherency with any existing systems as well as consistency with different smart phone platforms.
In this paper, the author has outlined the design of a qualitative research study. The study was based on different assumptions than that of quantitative designs. It is an ethnographic research design where the researcher is the research instrument. Approaches to data collection are participation observation, interviews and written documents. In addition data analysis will be using qualitative content analysis. Issues of validity and reliability are addressed in the proposed research design. Finally, constraints such as time and budget are also recognized in the designing of the research project.
In an influential 2011 article, “Android: Changing the Mobile Landscape,” Margaret Butler, founder and CEO of a company that creates mobile applications, convinces readers that Androids rapid development through recent years has made Android a huge success, winning hearts of both consumers and mobile application developers [1]. In November 2007, an open platform for all kinds of mobile devices was introduced [2]. This development is led by multiple companies under the umbrella of the Open Handset Alliance, which is a global alliance between technology and mobile industry leaders with an aim of developing and fostering a breed of innovation for mobile devices allowing a better user experience [2]. Android gives operators and manufacturers unprecedented freedom to design and distribute it and is also accredited under one of the most open source licenses available [2].
Mobile application is a very aggressive market, there are hundreds of platforms to choose from when designing applications. There are several platforms that currently dominate over other platforms. The Android platform is very popular, it’s one of the most preferred platforms for building applications. Most of its applications are built using JAVA software, but there are others software that are just as equal or greater. Java software is free and offer a free software development kit. The kit consists of sample applications, source codes, developer tools, and emulators...
Android has grown rapidly over the past 4 years to become the most used smart phone operating system in the world. It is unique, different, distinctive and incomparable to other operating systems. It has the higher number of applications on Google play compared to any apps store for any other system. By each new version Google releases, Android becomes better, faster and more flexible to use.

Striating from the research idea to the culmination of the findings, the research process entails many segments, all of which are imperative. By choosing the research methodology, the researchers can formulate the path to be used in conducting the study and reporting the findings. The methodology helps in the search of literature, development of research questions and the creation of the most suitable study design. It also assists in the interpretation of the results and the publication of the findings in journals.
