American InterContinental University Architectural Model Graphic Research Paper

Question Description

Management is worried, after consulting with the IT department that the current documentation of the present architecture was not done correctly and with the required details, therefore if IoT is implemented they desire more detailed graphical documentation on its implementation. Provide the following components as part of an architecture model graphic to be delivered to management for the asset tracking system:

Provide an introduction to the paper concerning the purpose of the graphic and the overall solution being recommended by the asset tracking IoT implementation (2-3 paragraphs).
Provide descriptive information regarding the architectural model graphic, and the details describing the devices, applications, Cloud/Server environment and gateway. (2 pages)
Provide the architectural graphic with the components below (Describe each of the objects on the diagram below, the interconnections or interfaces, types of data traveling across the connections, active protocols, cabling or wireless connections, and implemented security):
1. Devices (Generic device – Sensing and Actuating Devices)
2. IoT Application (transforms the data for value to the user)
3. Cloud/Server (data storage, processing and management)
4. Gateway capability (data is acquired, forwarded to the communications network)
Provide a conclusion to the paper summarizing the content and purpose of the paper.

An example of the required level of detail for your graphic can be found at http://www.latogalabs.com/2017/05/iot-architecture-the-journey/.

Grading Rubric

Project Criteria	Exceeds: 90%100%	Very Good: 80%89%	Meets: 70%79%	Needs Improvement: Below 70%
Content (75%)	Response covers all topics indicated in the assignment and adds additional content.	Response covers most topics indicated in the assignment.	Response covers many of the topics indicated in the assignment.	Response covers none to some of the topics indicated in the assignment.
Effective Communication (10%)	Demonstrates outstanding or exemplary application of written, visual, or oral skills. Demonstrates outstanding expression of topic, main idea, and purpose. Audience is addressed appropriately. Language clearly and effectively communicates ideas and content relevant to the assignment. Errors in grammar, spelling, and sentence structure are minimal. Organization is clear. Format is consistently appropriate to assignment. Presentation and delivery are confident and persuasive (where applicable). The writing was of collegiate level with no errors in spelling or grammar.	Demonstrates very good written, visual, or oral skills. Demonstrates sound expression of topic, main idea, and purpose. Audience is usually addressed appropriately. Language does not interfere with the communication of ideas and content relevant to the assignment. Errors in grammar, spelling, and sentence structure are present, but do not distract from the message. Organization is apparent and mostly clear. Format is appropriate to assignment, but not entirely consistent. The writing was of collegiate level with two or less errors in spelling or grammar.	Demonstrates acceptable written, visual, or oral skills. Demonstrates reasonable expression of topic, main idea, and purpose. Sometimes, audience is addressed appropriately. Language does not interfere with the communication of ideas and content relevant to the assignment. Errors in grammar, spelling, and sentence structure are present and may distract from the message. Organization is a bit unclear. Format is inconsistent. The writing was of collegiate level with several errors in spelling or grammar.	Demonstrates inadequate or partially proficient application of written, visual, or oral skills. Demonstrates inadequate or partial expression of topic, main idea, and purpose. Audience is often not addressed appropriately. Language often impedes the communication of ideas and content relevant to the assignment. Errors in grammar, spelling, and sentence structure are frequent and often distract from meaning or presentation. Organization is inadequate, confusing, and distracting. The format is inadequate and obscures meaning. The writing was less than collegiate level with numerous errors in spelling or grammar.
Supporting Analysis (15%)	Analysis exceeds minimum requirements. Sources are used to support analysis, are appropriate, and are properly referenced.	Basic analysis provided to support assertions. Sources are cited, appropriate, and properly referenced.	Limited analysis provided to support assertions. Some sources are cited, appropriate, and properly referenced.	No or inaccurate analysis, no sources are cited when needed, analysis and/or sources are not appropriate. When sources are used, they are not properly referenced.
