Feasibility AnalysisFeasibility Analysis
Concept DevelopmentThe pros and cons of selections• Advantages:
– Power – Wireless– Serial– Individual connections
• Disadvantages: – Wired systems may be more costly – Cumbersome– Constant battery replacement– Signal interferance– Serial Signal Delays
Standards
• ISO 7240-1– connected to control and indicating equipment
• AS/NZS 4379.2:1996 – the remote database access client, when
database language used is SQL
• ITS-90– t90 / °C = T90/K - 273.15
Ethical ConsiderationsEthical Considerations • DilemmaDilemma
– unauthorized access to private information – security risk from altered information
• StakeholdersStakeholders– The stakeholders involved in this project will be the owner or
other users of the security system, hackers, and the general public.
• Determining the optionsDetermining the options – Best extreme – Worst extreme – Compromise
• Application of Ethical TheoriesApplication of Ethical Theories – Ethical egoism – Utilitarianism – Ethics of care
