An SQL-Lite database file.

A client program that generates an XML file with data.

The aim of the coursework is to give students practical experience in object oriented software development by implementing a system in an object oriented language (C#) that involves a number of real-world engineering applications (reading standard data format (XML), database access and storage, user interface design).

The System.

The UCLan autonomous all-terrain Vehicle (UAAV) is in testing phase, the UAAV has been designed to navigate extremely remote and hazardous locations and as such there will be many times when direct communication will not be possible.  With this in mind a system has been designed that monitors various metrics around the vehicle and saves the data to a file.  The system saves a snapshot of readings once every 5 minutes whilst operating and saves the result to an XML file for analysis (The client software simulates this by producing an XML file with all the readings for that day).

You have been given the task of writing a software system that can take the readings file, save its contents to a database and allow engineers to access the data.

The XML file contains data on when the readings took place, the UAAV’s speed at the time, its internal cabin temperature, its engine compartment temperature, its fuel level, its battery charge level and shock absorber wear.

The database file (Readings.db) contains a single empty table (UAAVData) that has the following structure :

RunningTime is the time the UAAV has been running, all tests run over a 5 hour period, this

· All elements of the coursework have been covered in lectures and labs, all labs between the release of the coursework and the coursework deadline will be dedicated to allow students to complete their coursework.
