Explanation of Solution

Developing a program:

There are many steps to develop the program. It includes Analyze the program, Determine specification, Creating a Design, Implement the Design, Test/ Debug the Program and Maintain the Program.

Steps in software development process:

Analyze the program:

In this phase, the problem is analyzed clearly and figure out what the problem should solve. It requires the clear understating of the problem and the further analysis is made until the programmer really knows what the problem is.

Determine specification:

After analysis, it is responsible for the programmer to decide what will be the inputs and outputs of the program and how they should decide the factor, that how they relate to each other.

Creating a Design:

In this phase, the overall structure of the program is formulated. The main task in this phase is to design the algorithm that will meet the specifications.

Implement the Design:

In this phase, the created design is translated into a computer language and put it is into the computer. The implemented algorithm can be translated into programming languages like Python, C, C++, Java and so on.

Test/ Debug the Program:

In the phase, the developed program is tested and checks whether it runs properly without any error. The errors are often called as bugs in such cases, it should be tested and fix them. This process of locating and fixing errors is called debugging a program.

Maintain the Program:

In this phase, the program is continued to develop in response to the needs of the users. Most of the programs are never finished for such case it keeps evolving over years of use.

This is for my Computer Organization & Assembly Language Class
Please answer the homework scenario below and make a JAVA OOP code. You have been hired by GMU to create and manage their course registration portal. Your first task is to develop a program that will create and track different courses in the portal.  Each course has the following properties:  • a course number ex. IT 106, IT 206,  • A course description, ex. Intro to Programming • Total credit hour ex. 3.0, and  • current enrollment ex. 30 Each course must have at least a course number and credit hours. The maximum enrollment for each course is 40 students. The current enrollment should be no greater than the maximum enrollment. A course can have a maximum of 4 credit hour. The DDC should calculate the number of seats remaining for the course. Design an object-oriented solution to create a data definition class for the course object. The course class must define all the constructors, mutators with proper validation, accessors, and special purpose methods. The DDC should calculate the…
For this case study, students will analyze the ethical considerations surrounding artificial intelligence and big data in healthcare, as explored in the case study found in the textbook (pages 34-36) and in the extended version available here  There will also be additional articles in this weeks learning module to show both sides of the coin. https://www.delftdesignforvalues.nl/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Saving-the-life-of-medical-ethics-in-the-age-of-AI-and-Big-Data.pdf   Students should refer to the syllabus for specific guidelines regarding length, format, and content requirements.   Reflection Questions to Consider: What are the key ethical dilemmas presented in the case? How does AI challenge traditional medical ethics principles such as autonomy, beneficence, and confidentiality? In what ways can responsible innovation help address moral overload in healthcare decision-making? What are the potential risks and benefits of integrating AI-driven decision-making into patient care?…
