John Goldis Project Instructions
Spring 2003
1. Place all the files in a folder
2. Create a virtual directory (with IIS or some other utility) and
link it to the folder created in step 1
3. Open sql and create a new database. You can restore the database
in sql using the .bak file provided. When creating the database
save it to the folder created in step 1.
4. The database has two tables. One is called Teams and the other Scores.
Teams has a description of all the teams and Scores has a description of
each teams results.
The teams table has a
TeamID column which is simply that team's id.
The name column is the team's name. The description column is that
team's region
The position column is the team's ranking and the points column is
the initial points that each team has.
The Scores table has a
winner_id column which is the id of the winning team
loser_id column which is the id of the losing team
winner_score and loser_score columns which are the scores
of the winning and loosing teams respectively
updated column which is the date the match was played
5. To view the results open WebForm1.aspx in a web browser.
6. You can view the code using any development enviornment, however
all changes must be done using the .NET framework
7. If you do not have .Net the only way to experiment with the system
is to change the entries in the SCORES table of the database. If
you have .NET you can also modify the constants described in the
paper and presentation. Open the WebForm1.aspx.cs file and scroll
down to find the constants. There are comments indicating them.
After you change them, recompile the code and look at WebForm1.aspx
in the browser
