What is your subject about? A brief overview

This subject teaches students to apply and analyse advanced object-oriented programming techniques
using the Java libraries. The focus of this programming subject is on the creation of robust and
effectively constructed Graphical User Interface (GUI) applications that interact with problem domain
objects and relational databases. This subject will cover Java GUI components, GUI construction, the
interpretation of Unified Modelling Language (UML) class diagrams, streams and serialisation,
multithreaded applications, reusable software via JavaBeans, relational database management via the
Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) and Java socket programming. In addition, usage of correct object
oriented programming heuristics is emphasised in this subject.
Learning outcomes
On successful completion of this subject, you should:
be able to create, manage and manipulate objects via the Java Collections Framework;
be able to design and implement multithreaded Java applications;
be able to design and construct Java Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) that interact with
problem domain objects;
be able to create, connect to and update a relational database using the Java Database
Connectivity (JDBC);
be able to construct and make use of reusable software elements utilising Java beans;
be able to use the inheritance features of the Java language to design and implement complex
object-oriented programs;
be able to write programs that would communicate with another program running in the
network;
be able to deconstruct/analyse the object-oriented features of a Java program.
Pass Requirements
You must obtain at least 50% in both the examination and the total mark in order to pass this subject.

You must pass the exam to pass the subject.
To be eligible for the grade AA or AE you must have submitted all assessment items in the subject,
including the final exam. If you choose not to complete an assessment item or do not sit the final exam
then you will not be granted an AA or an AE grade.
Key Subjects
Passing a key subject is one of the indicators of satisfactory academic progress through your course.
You must pass the key subjects in your course at no more than two attempts. The first time you fail a
key subject you will be 'at risk' of exclusion; if you fail a second time you will be excluded from the
course.
The Academic Progress Policy (https://policy.csu.edu.au/view.current.php?id=00250) sets out the

requirements and procedures for satisfactory academic progress, for the exclusion of students who fail
to progress satisfactorily and for the termination of enrolment for students who fail to complete in the
maximum allowed time.
Assumed knowledge
Academic integrity means acting with honesty, fairness and responsibility, and involves observing and
maintaining ethical standards in all aspects of academic work. This subject assumes that you
understand what constitutes plagiarism, cheating and collusion. If you are a new student we expect you
to complete the modules called Academic Integrity at CSU

Learning, teaching and support strategies

The best way to contact your lecturer is via email.
How you are expected to engage with the subject:
All of your subject materials are available in the Interact site: Resources for the students, Textbook
and learning materials, Online learning modules, Recorded lectures etc. I suggest that for each topic
you read, from the online learning modules, the learning objectives carefully, read the overview, have
a quick skim of the text and then watch the recorded lecture on the topic-interactive tutorial. Once you
have got a feel for what the topic is about try and make a good set of notes under each of the topic
review questions both from the tutorials and online learning modules. You can do this by watching the
tutorial and consulting the text again in a more considered way. These questions have been designed to
give you focus in the topic, so it really helps to prepare a useful set of answers to them. I have also
uploaded some videos of the selected questions/problems. Once you feel ready you can test yourself
by taking the online quiz in the topic there are no marks recorded and you can do each quiz as many
times as you like.
In this subject we will meet for a 3 hour session where we will discuss that weeks topic. Before you
come to class you need to have looked at the online activities in the Interact site and read the text so
that you can contribute to the class and derive more meaning from the activities that we will do in
class. We will spend class time working through the topic questions, discussing them and preparing
responses. In addition we may use video, games and case studies to enhance understanding of certain
topic areas.

It is helpful to have a small task to complete early in the session so that you have a focus in the subject
from the very first day, and so the first assessment is set for this purpose. If you do not perform well in
this assessment you may be contacted to discuss how we can support you better in this subject.
You should check the Interact Site on a regular basis for postings, announcements, lecture information
and other resources that will assist your studies or additional information and resources vital to your
success in the subject.
Studying at university does not mean studying alone. During class you will have an opportunity to
interact with the lecturer as well as your peers.
Use the subject schedule to plan your studies over the session.

Task

Task 1 (50 marks) Tax Management System
Write a Java program that will calculate tax for the employees of a company called XYZ. The main
menu of the tax calculation program is as follows.
Welcome to Tax Management System of XYZ
Please select one of the following options:

1. Calculate tax
2. Search tax
3. Exit
When 1 is selected then the program will calculate the tax of an employee based on the annual income
of the employee and tax rates on the income. The tax rates on the income is stored in a file called
taxrates.txt. The program needs to read the taxrates.txt file and store the information in proper data
structure. If the taxrates.txt file does not exist in the directory of the source code then the program
should ask to provide the taxrates.txt file as an input. The format of the taxrates.txt file is as
follows.
Taxable Income Tax on Income

0 $18,200 0
$18,201 $37,000 19c for each $1 over $18,200
$37,001 $87,000 $3,572 plus 32.5c for each $1 over $37,000
$87,001 $180,000 $19,822 plus 37c for each $1 over $87,000
$180,001 and over $54,232 plus 45c for each $1 over $180,000
The program will take user inputs on Employee ID (4-digit number) and the annual income of the
employee (floating-point number with two decimal places). Based on the annual income of the
employee the program will then calculate the tax (using the information in taxrates.txt file) of the
employee. For example, if the annual income of an employee is $100000.00 then the tax of the
employee=19822+(100000 - 87000)*0.37= 20303.00.
After calculating the tax of an employee the program will then write the Employee Id, taxable income
and tax into a file called taxreport.txt. The format of the taxreport.txt file is as follows.
Employee ID Taxable Income Tax

1111 100000.00 20303.00
2222 90000.00 19933.00
Once the tax calculation is done for one employee then the program will ask if XZY wants to calculate
the tax for another employee, if yes then the above process will continue again. The program will
calculate the tax for as many employees as XYZ wants. However, if XZY does not want to calculate
the tax for another employee then main menu will be displayed.
When 2 is selected then the program will search the tax for an employee using the employee id in the
taxreport.txt file. However, if the taxreport.txt file does not exist in the directory of the source code
then the program should ask to provide the taxreport.txt file as an input.
If the taxreport.txt file contains the multiple tax for the same employee then the program will get the
latest tax amount of that employee. If the taxreport.txt file does not contain the employee id then the
program should give an warning message that the taxreport.txt file does not contain the tax of that
employee.
Once searching tax (based on employee id) is done for one employee then the program will ask if
XZY wants to search tax for another employee, if yes then the above process will continue again. The
program will search tax for as many employees as XYZ wants. However, if XZY does not want to

search tax for another employee then main menu will be displayed.
When 3 is selected then the program will exit.
File read and write operations need to be done properly. You need to use proper data structure. Input
validation also needs to be done.
Task 2 (50 marks) (Grade Processing)
In this part of your assignment you are required to produce a fully functional GUI program in
accordance with the specifications mentioned below. The program will be used to determine and
display the final mark of students enrolled in the Programming in Java 2 subject. It will also have
the capability to calculate and display the average mark for all students entered into the system.
Part 1 Elements of the GUI :
An appropriate title appearing on top of the main frame of the GUI (eg. Grade Processing
Programming in Java 2)
Six text fields with appropriate labels namely Student ID, "Student Name", Quiz Marks,
Assignment 1 Marks, Assignment 2 Marks and Exam Marks to take user inputs
Two buttons (Student Marks and Average Marks) used to trigger actions for calculations
A lower part (section) of the GUI will contain the Student Name, Student ID, Quiz marks,
Assignment 1 marks, Assignment 2 marks, Exam, Results and Grade.
Please see the figure below to get an idea about the GUI
Part 2 Functionality:
For each student, user enters Student ID, "Student Name", Quiz, Assignment 1,
Assignment 2, and Exam marks. The mark on each assessment items has to be an integer
between 0 and 100 (inclusive). Input validation needs to be done on each assessment mark to
make sure that the mark on each assessment is in between 0 and 100.
User then presses the Student Marks button to calculate the final marks and grade for the
student. The weights on Quiz, Assignment 1, Assignment 2, and Exam are 5%, 20%,
25% and 50%, respectively.

Calculate Results: The results of a student should be calculated using the following formula:
Results = (Quiz marks* 0.05) + (Assignment 1 marks * 0.20) + (Assignment 2 marks * 0.25)
+ (Exam marks* 0.5)
Calculate Grade:
HD: Results>=85
DI: 75<=Results<85
CR: 65<=Results<75
PS: 50<=Results<65
FL: 75<=Results<50
The users of the program are allowed to enter marks for as many students as they want
The lower part of the GUI will contain the Student Name, ID, Quiz marks, Assignment 1
marks, Assignment 2 marks, Exam marks, Results and Grade of 10 recently entered students.
Input validation needs to be done
When a user clicks the Average Marks button then the average marks for all students
entered will be displayed.
Note: For further clarification and concerns about the assignment, students are recommended to
contact with the subject lecturer.

Following items are to be submitted in Turnitin:
Report: The report (in .doc or .pdf format) should explain how to run your program (1 or 2 page long)
and any settings needed to run your program. Enough number of screenshots should be shown in the
document. In case if the assignment marker fails to run your program, because of any inconvenience,
these screenshots would show how the program worked on your machine/environment.

Learning materials
Details of learning materials that support your success in this subject can be found in the Interact2
Subject Site.
Referencing
Referencing is an important component of academic work. All assessment tasks should be
appropriately referenced. The specific details of the referencing requirements are included in each
assessment task description. Get referencing style guides and help
(http://student.csu.edu.au/library/integrity/referencing-at-csu) to use for your assessments.
Plagiarism
CSU treats plagiarism seriously. We may use Turnitin to check your submitted work for plagiarism.
You can use Turnitin to check for plagiarism
(http://student.csu.edu.au/library/integrity/referencing-at-csu/checking) in your assessments before
submission.
How to apply for special consideration

Academic regulations provide for special consideration to be given if you suffer misadventure or
extenuating circumstances during the session (including the examination period) which prevents you
from meeting acceptable standards or deadlines. Find the form on the Student Portal Special
Consideration, Misadventure, Advice and Appeals (http://student.csu.edu.au/study/academic-advice)
page.
Extensions
In order to ensure that students who hand their assignments in on time are not disadvantaged, and to
enable the lecturer to comply with the requirement to return assignments to the class within 21 days,
the following rules about extensions will be strictly enforced:
1. Extensions cannot be granted for online tests, as these have to be done within a specific time
frame, after which the answers are released to the class automatically.
2. Computer problems and normal work-related pressures and family commitments do not
constitute sufficient reasons for the granting of extensions.
3. If it becomes obvious that you are not going to be able to submit an assignment on time
because of an unavoidable problem, you must submit your request for an extension to the
Subject Coordinator in writing (email or post) prior to the due date.
Requests for extensions will not be granted on or after the due date so you must make sure
that any extension is requested prior to the day on which the assignment is due.
You are expected to do all you can to meet assignment deadlines. Work and family related
pressures do not normally constitute sufficient reasons for the granting of extensions or
incomplete grades.
4. If you apply for an extension, you may be asked to email your lecturer on what you have
done so far on the assignment.
5. You must be able to provide documentary evidence (such as a certificate from a doctor or
counsellor) justifying the need for an extension as soon as practicable - but please note that if

5.
the circumstances giving rise to the request for an extension arise on a day when you cannot
get documentary evidence, you must still apply for the extension before the due date and
submit the documentary evidence afterwards.
6. Given the tight deadlines involved in returning assignments to students and putting feedback
on Interact, the maximum extension granted generally will be seven (7) days from the
due date.
7. Assignments received more than 10 days after the due date or extension date will not be
marked unless the staff member decides otherwise. Items received late will be penalised at
10% of the mark available for the assessment item per day it is late (see below).
8. Note that for purposes of measuring lateness, the 'day' begins just after 00.00 hrs AEST - so
an assignment received after midnight of the due date will be penalised 10% for lateness.
This rule will be applied to all students uniformly.
Penalties for Late Submission

The Faculty of Business has determined that the penalty for the late submission of an assessment task
(without obtaining the Subject Coordinator's approval for an extension) will be:
10% deduction per day, including weekends, of the maximum marks allocated for the assessment
task, i.e. 1 day late 10% deduction, or 2 days late 20% deduction.
An example of the calculation would be:
Maximum marks allocated = 20

Penalty for one day late = 2 marks (so, a score of 18/20 becomes 16/20 and a score of 12/20 becomes
10/20).
If an assignment is due on a Friday but is not submitted until the following Tuesday, then the penalty
will be four days (40% deduction or 8 marks in the example above).
Submissions more than 10 days late will be acknowledged as received but will not be marked.
Resubmission
Under normal circumstances resubmission of assessment items will not be accepted for any of the
assessments required in this subject.
Online Submission
Assessment items that are completed within the Interact 2 site, such as quizzes, tests and self and peer
assessments in the blog and wiki are noted in the assessment section above. You need to complete
these tasks within your subject site.
Unless advised otherwise, all Turnitin submissions are due by midnight (AEST) of the date specified.
Please note that the time and the date of your Turnitin submission will be used to determine your
official submission time.
Additional Submission Information:

It is recommended that your name, student ID and page number are included in the header or footer
of every page of any assignment. You are also required to rename your assignment file before you
submit via Turnitin as per below protocol:
SUBJECT CODE, SI, SURNAME, STUDENT ID, ASSESSMENT NUMBER, SESSION.

Example ITC521 SI PATEL 11554466 A3 201760.doc

Postal Submission
Under normal circumstances postal submissions will not be accepted for any of the assessments
required.
Hand Delivered Submission

Under normal circumstances hand delivered submissions will not be accepted for any of the
assessments required.
Feedback
Feedback on your assignment can be viewed on Turnitin after the assignment results are released. You
may also approach the lecturer in class for further clarification or feedback on the assignment.
Assignment Return
You should normally expect your marked assignment to be returned to you within 15 working days of
the due date, if your assignment was submitted on time. If you submitted your assignment on time but
have not received it back by the return date, you should make enquiries in the first instance to your
lecturer.
