Propose & Plan a Data Communications project. Provide a
'high level' architecture and data
communications solution to support internet procurement for a

Requirement: The Strategic business plan calls for an investment
in adding business to business,
internet based procurement capability. This capability will
include a digital signature function. The
capability will be described on the company web site. We need
this capability to provide timely data
communication service to 30 -50 nodes to an ISP to our remote
business suppliers. We also plan to
interface in an interactive distance learning environment to the
Peter Kiewit Institute or CISCO to
test and educate. Costs to provide the service should be
'resonable'.
y Research and apply a 'digital signature' solutiony Describe a
'high level' Data Communications Architecture / infrastructure that
would satisfy
this requirement.y Describe the integration of the TCP/IP
protocolsy Describe the application services used.
Brief: Agenda item will allow 15 minutes for presentation (Not
more than 12 slides) & questions.
Topics should include:
y Define the requirementy Describe the assumed current IT system
(e.g. Provide a 'before' architecture within OSI RM)y Describe the
future architecture (e.g. High Level 'solution' and schedule
for
implementation)y Implementation proposal (e.g. How to apply
proposed data communications solution within
an 'open' environment, preliminary design and technology
required, 'Phase 0' planning)y Program/Budget Estimates (e.g. line
item changes to communications hardware, software,
personnel, contract services)y Measures of Effectiveness for
Critical Success Factorsy Risks to cost/performance/scheduley
