Question: Only from the book Systems Analysis & Design - An Object Oriented Approach with UML 6 th Edition Dennis / Wixom / Tegarden Willey answer

Only from the book Systems Analysis & Design - An Object Oriented Approach with UML 6th Edition Dennis / Wixom / Tegarden Willey answer these questions from a case study. Bills Travel Service
Bills Travel Service (BTS) books discounted spring break trips for students. During
summer and fall Bill contacts various resorts who are interested in hosting
students. The resort indicates the number of rooms, each rooms capacity, and
room rates for each different week that students are on break. Keep in mind that
not all colleges & universities have the same week off, so for the actual resort
(and BTS) spring break is normally 4-6 weeks in length.
Each resort offers bookings for a different number of weeks, and rooms have
different rates depending on the week. A variety of room types and capacities are
usually available at each resort. So, for example, a resort might offer rooms with a
capacity of 2 guests for $75/day one week and $85/day the next. Capacity is a
minimum of two, but there is no real maximum (for example a ski chalet).
During November & December BTS creates lists of resorts, rooms, capacities and
room rates showing each week the resort / room is available. This list is
distributed to a wide variety of colleges and universities. BTS then opens the
phone lines and takes bookings. Only phone orders are accepted. BTS keeps track
of what is being booked and for when, and send confirmations (regular mail or
email, students choice) for what has been booked. Updated lists are sent to the
campuses weekly. When the cutoff date for booking arrives, normally about a
week before Break Week Starts, BTS creates a list for the resort of who has
booked, which type of room they were assigned, dates, prices, etc. This list
basically becomes the Check-In list for the resort of who they are expecting.

When the student arrives at the resort they pay the resort directly. The resort
sends commission cheques to BTS, which is fed into the BTS Accounting System.
Accounting is a completely separate system from the Room Booking system and is
not what you are developing in this assignment. Similarly, you should not concern
yourself with human resources concerns (ie. staffing, positions, payroll).
When break week is over students leave the resort and get back to classes to
work on fun things like SYDE assignments.
BTS is looking for ways to improve their processes and managing of data, and they
have put out a request for proposal. Following the instructions below produce a
single document we can use as a part of our system proposal in response
business RFP. Questions - Practical Activity (60 minutes) Review the Bills Travel Service case study from a last weeks activity. Using that context write a set of 5 open-ended and 5 closed-ended interview questions you could ask the people at the travel service to reveal more details about what they require. The aim here is not just to write questions, but to write useful questions that will result in useful information. Not all questions are useful. Also recommend another requirement gathering technique that would be useful here and describe why it is a good choice.
