Scenario

Application for Eelectronic Cash Register

Many well-known companies, such as S&M Supermarket and Costume Jewellery outlets,
Tampin Shopping Centre, 7-Eleven, Chakri Thai Restaurants, Picnic Food Court-KLCC, Food
Junction-Mid Valley, Victoria Station, Sri Ayuttaya, Kim Gary Restaurant, The Piazza Courtyard
and Restaurants have chosen custom designed application in the electronic cash register (ECR) to
enable products to be sold at a retail outlet. ECR helps large and small retail outlets track sales,
minimize register errors, collect inventory data and much more.

Assume, you are currently working for Naros Pvt Ltd software house and your project
manager assigned you to develop a simple apps to manipulate cash counter receipt in-line with
Malaysian government GST, your apps should serve customers in their daily food operation. This
apps will be utilized by Modesto Chain Restaurants at Asia Pacific University Sdn Bhd.

At Modestos Chain Restaurants you have to identify the available food, calculate the
delivered food item, and maintain the stocks etc. For the inventory, the restaurants required to
follow the arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) for ordering
and delivering food. Your application will be uploaded in the ECR upon completion.

What is your task?

You, as a programmer in Naros Pvt Ltd, are required to develop an assembly language program
for the above mentioned case study using TASM and TLINK.
1. Elaborate in detail about the uses of low level programming languages in security and
forensic also provide the self-reflections with justification.
2. Design main menu in your programming and list down the name of the foods and provide
necessary code to perform basic arithmetic operations (+, -, *, / ) to find out the total sum.
3. You are expected to demonstrate creativity in develop an application using assembly
language prototype that can deal with the requirements of the developer as well as
addressing (if necessary) any other aspects of control of the main menu of the
application.
4. You have to work on the prototype individually.
5. You are permitted to make assumptions where necessary. These assumptions are
expected to be logical and must be appropriate for the situation at hand.
6. There will be a presentation towards the submission date of the project. You are expected
to demonstrate how your system is capable of addressing the requirements of the
developer.
7. The submission of your project should entail the following items:
a. Main hardcopy documentation highlighting the following:
i. How the requirements have been addressed by the developing language,
uses of low level programming languages in security and forensic also
provide the self-reflections with justification
ii. System Design.
b. Softcopy user manual or guide that can explain how your system works. This will
be based on your system application.
8. Your completed documentation should meet the following requirements:
 Table of contents for every detailed section.
 Abstract
 Introduction on Assembly Language
 System Design
 System Screenshot
 source Code
 Limitation
 Future Enhancement
 Conclusion
 References
 Appendices if necessary

 f) Date Completed (the date the report is due to be handed in).

5. All information, figures and diagrams obtained from external sources must be referenced using
the Harvard referencing system accordingly.

6. Plagiarism is a serious offence and will automatically be awarded zero (0) marks.

7. Produce the hardcopy of the above report and enclose a softcopy of the report together with
the program source code in a secondary storage media.

8. You have to hand in your hardcopy assignment on time with the Course Work Submission and
Feedback Form.

9. Please be informed that presentation is compulsory and if any student refusing to attend the
presentation, the grade will be considered as fail.
