We met up with our supervisor to do some clarifications. A major question we ask is that whether or not we should come out with a DES Engine or we can use those online. Then the reply was...we need not come out with our own DES Engine! Because we are suppose to do a e-learning software for our project! Therefore most of the things we discussed earlier on are abit off the actual topic that we should focus on.
For a start, we will need to work towards a simple prototype so that we got something to show during our first presentation. We may need to create new flowcharts since our focus has changed.
Supervisor mentioned that we should create some animation so that it will be interesting for students to see. (No need him to say we also know, but thanks anyway :p)
3rd Oct:
Urgent meeting because we need to reallocate and list out what are the new things we need do. We decided to use FLASH... but bad thing is...all of us is not familiar with FLASH as none of us is a designer or learned before.
We thinking of creating a animation which demostrate how DES work and a real application which really encrypt/decrypt real data. In future we hope to integrate both together. Therefore the team is split into 2.
- Thet Swe, Edmund - Real DES application using Java
- Mark, Brad, Shang - Flash animation
We got around 1 week to fiddle with Fash before we come out with a standard template to use.
