Plagiarism is presenting somebody else's work as your own. It includes: copying information directly from the Web or books without referencing the material; submitting joint coursework as an individual effort; copying another student's coursework; stealing coursework from another student and submitting it as your own work. Suspected plagiarism will be investigated and if found to have occurred will be dealt with according to the procedures set down by the University.
Please see your student handbook for further details of what is / isn't plagiarism.
All material copied or amended from any source (e.g. internet, books) must be referenced correctly according to the reference style you are using.
Your work will be submitted for plagiarism checking. Any attempt to bypass our plagiarism detection systems will be treated as a severe Assessment Offence.

written mathematical notation, but when scanning do ensure the file size is not excessive.
For this coursework you must also upload a single ZIP file containing supporting
There are limits on the file
Make sure that any files you upload are virus-free and not protected by a password or corrupted otherwise they will be treated as null submissions.

Detailed Specification
Scenario
People increasingly employ technology-enabled smart objects in their personal home such as internet-enabled thermostats, security systems, motorized blinds or networked light bulbs to give just a few examples. Frequently these systems are from different manufacturers.
You have been commissioned to create a concept and prototype for a smart voice
people to control all smart objects in their home by connecting them to your smart hub. Your smart hub needs to consist of one or more physical devices that listen for voice commands and a mobile application for the configuration of the entire smart home system. You do not need to create the physical component of your product but you need to provide a basic visualization of your overall solution.
You can decide on a target audience for your device. However, your design and research activities need to be in alignment with that choice. The requirements that you generate through your research need to be justified and your report needs to provide a good overall narrative not a number of disjoint sections. Your writing needs to be supported by at least 12-15 academic references (not blogs or online tutorials or the like). References ought to be formatted in Harvard style.
