Iteration Plan
Introduction
Purpose
This Iteration Plan describes the detailed plans for the Elaboration Iteration of the Collegiate Sports Paging System Project. During this iteration, the design of the system will be defined and the high level plan for execution of the full project will be refined.
Scope
The Elaboration Iteration Plan applies to the Collegiate Sports Paging System project being developed by Context Integration for WebNewsOnLine. This document will be used by the Project Manager and by the project team.

Resources
Staffing
The project staffing for this iteration can be viewed as follows:
Financial Resources
The budget for this iteration is $180,000. WebNewsOnLine has secured this funding.
Use Cases
Use cases to be developed during this iteration are:
- Approve Story
- Edit Profile
- Pay Fee With Credit Card
- Print Advertiser Reports
- Provide Feedback
- Read Content on Web Site
- Send Content
- Send Page
- Subscribe
Evaluation Criteria
The primary goal of this iteration is to complete the analysis and design of selected use cases and to develop a working architectural prototype.
Risk associated with the architectural design or system performance will be realized by the end of the iteration.
Each deliverable developed during the iteration will be peer reviewed and subject to approval from the team.
The internal project team and the Subscriber, Advertiser, and Editor representatives will review the User-Interface Prototype and the Architectural Prototype.
