3. Case study : Emotion-based Instant Messaging

All students work in a team to develop an extenstion to an existing instant messaging system that,

1. analyzes the messages and filters the emoticons in the message;
2. calculates current emotional state of the buddies based on the collected emoticons,.
3. keeps track of the emotional state history of the buddies.

The existing instant messaging system will be provided as a blackbox with the following interfaces:

1. sending messages.
2. notification of the messages received.
3. changing the user's status.
4. notification of the status change of the buddies.
5. file transfer.

The team should not work on:

6.3. Requirements

Java 2 JREE 1.4 or above.

6.4. Installation

6.4.1. TIM3

Copy attachment:TIM3.jar to anywhere you like. Double click on the icon to start the program.

6.4.2. plugins

Copy the plugin to <home>/.jbother/plugins. On Linux, <home> is your home directory. On Windhows, <home> is C:\Documents and Settings\<your windows login user name>. You can download these plugins in the plugin manager because these plugins are not part of the standard JBother.

In order to serve the files from your local computer when transferring files, port 8080 will be open for connection. Any other software occupying this port or any firewall security hiding this port will fail the FileTransfer plugin to work properly.
