Hi everyone! This is my first blog for the new semester. This new set of blogs will concentrate on the happenings of the second half of my software engineering experiences and projects. The class will be concentrating of further developing the wattdepot service. The professor plans on trying to create an energy conservation game for the University of Hawaii dorms by the end of the semester.
To start the semester, the class was divided up into smaller groups where each group has a task to accomplish. I was assigned to a group that is dedicated to creating a stoplight using google visualizations and also google gadgets. We have to figure out how to connect to the wattdepot server and output the current electrical output. This will be similar to the stoplight that we had to make in our last semester. This first week my group will be learning javascript since it is accompanied with google gadgets and visualizations.
We are a little unsure about what we exactly have to accomplish. So to get started on the project we have studied up on our javascript, google gadgets, and visualizations. To refresh myself on javascript I skimmed though a javascript book that I have had from a scripting class that I have taken at UH. To learn about google gadgets I did the tutorials that was given to our group by our professor, found here. I still have to look over google visualizations, but for now our group is not sure how we are going to incorporate google visualizations into making a gadget stoplight.
