 CS 2336 PROJECT 3 – Linked Inventory Management Project Due: 11/04 by 11:59 PM KEY ITEMS: Key items are marked in red. Failure to include or complete key items will incur additional deductions as noted beside the item. Submission: • The file containing main must be named Main.java. (-5 points) • The project files must be in packages that start with LinkedInventoryManagement.* (-5 points) • All project deliverables are to be submitted in eLearning until further notice o Zip the contents of the src directory into a single zipped file o Make sure the zipped file has a .zip extension (not .tar, .rar, .7z, etc.) (-5 points) o Add your project’s presentation link in the comments section in eLearning • Programs must compile and run with Java SE 13. • Each student is responsible for developing unit test cases to ensure their program works as expected. • Type your name and netID in the comments at the top of all files submitted. (-5 points) Objectives: • Create a modular code solution with multi-packages • Use the Singleton pattern to create and manage the Scanner object • Create and manipulate a multi-directional LinkedList in Java • Use Java Generics to create generic classes and methods • Implement and use the Comparable interface Problem: A small electronics company has hired you to write an application to manage their inventory. The company requested a role-based access control (RBAC) to increase the security around using the new application. The company also requested that the application menu must be flexible enough to allow adding new menu items to the menu with minimal changes. This includes re-ordering the menu items and making changes to the description of a menu item without having to change the code. Security: The company has suggested to start the application by asking the user for a username and password to ensure that the user is authorized to access the application. There are two types of users at this company, managers and employees. If managers log on to the application, they will see all options on the menu list. If employees log on to the application, they will see a limited set of options on the menu list. User information is stored in Users.dat file, which may or may not exist at the start of the program. A super user “admin” with password “admin” has already been hardcoded in the program to allow for the initial setup and the creation of other users. The Users.dat file contains the FirstName, LastName, Username (case insensitive), HashedPassword and a flag to indicate whether a user is a manager or not. The file is comma separated and it is formatted as follows: Joe, Last, jlast, 58c536ed8facc2c2a293a18a48e3e120, true Sam,, sone, 2c2a293a18a48e3e12058c536ed8facc, false Jane, Best, jbest, 293a18a48e3e12052058c536ed8facc2c, false Application Menu: The menu of the application is dynamically loaded and displayed to the user only after the user successfully logs on. The menu items will be loaded from file “MenuList.dat”, which may or may not exist at the start of the application. If the file doesn’t exist, the application should show at least an Exit menu item as default. The file will contain all menu items details, including the name of the command that will be executed when the menu item is selected. The file may contain duplicate menu items. Your program should detect this by checking the command name as a key to compare menu items and prevent showing duplicates in the menu. If a menu item is marked as restricted (Boolean flag), only managers can see that item. The file contains the following comma separated fields, Description, a Boolean flag to indicate if the option is restricted to managers only, and the name of the menu command that will be executed when the option is chosen. The order and option number of a menu item may change depending on how they are listed in the file. The Exit option will always be listed last and it will not be in the file. Below is a sample of how the MenuList.dat file looks like: Add User, true, AddUserCommand Delete User, true, DeleteUserCommand Change Password, false, ChangePasswordCommand Add New Product, true, AddProductCommand *Note: The command name of each menu item must match the name of the class that you will create in the code (See AddProductCommand class in the code for example). Inventory: The inventory consists of multiple products of type Product stored in class ProductCatalog. The ProductCatalog is responsible of all inventory operations that add, remove, find and update a product. When printing a product information, the product retail price should be calculated and displayed as well. Retail price = (cost + (margin * cost/100)). A list of functions has been added to this class in the provided code template. You must implement all listed functions. The inventory products will be saved in file Inventory.dat, which may or may not exist when the program first starts. The file will contain the product unique id (int), product name (string), cost (double), quantity (int) and margin (int, integer that represents margin percentage). Your program must prevent the user from inserting duplicate products by checking existing products using the product name (ignore case) as a comparison key. The Inventory.dat file is comma separated and formatted as follows: 3424, Smart Watch, 20.45, 23, 80 65454, Flat Screen TV, 465.98, 15, 35 435, Computer Monitor, 123.54, 84, 43 Data Structure: The MenuList and ProductCatalog classes must use a custom LinkedList that you will create instead of using an ArrayList. The nodes in this list must be multi-directional to facilitate moving from current node to next node and from current node to previous node if needed. This custom linked list must be named InventoryLinkedList, must be generic, and must contain at least the following methods: – public InventoryLinkedList(E[] elements) //Constructor – public E GetFirst() //Get the first element in the list – public E GetLast() //Get the last element in the list – public void Insert(int index, E element) //Inserts element e at the specified index – public E Remove(int index) //Remove the element at the specified index – public String toString() //Return formatted elements information – public boolean Contains(E element) //Check if list contains the element – public E SetElement(int index, E element) //Set the element at the specified index – public E GetElement(int index) //Get the element at the specified index – public Integer GetLength() //Returns the number of elements in the list Output Format: Enter username: some username Enter password: some password //Repeat prompts until user is authenticated OR show error and option to exit. Invalid username or password! Press enter to continue or “Exit” to exit: Enter username: some username Enter password: some password Welcome Firstname LastName! Inventory Management System Menu //This is the header of the MenuList // The order and option number of a menu item may change depending on how they are listed in the MenuList.dat file.

Scenario 

You are an information technology (IT) intern working for Health Network, Inc. (Health Network), a fictitious health services organization headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Health Network has over 600 employees throughout the organization and generates $500 million USD in annual revenue. The company has two additional locations in Portland, Oregon and Arlington, Virginia, which support a mix of corporate operations. Each corporate facility is located near a co-location data center, where production systems are located and managed by third-party data center hosting vendors.

Company Products 

Health Network has three main products: HNetExchange, HNetPay, and HNetConnect. 

HNetExchange is the primary source of revenue for the company. The service handles secure electronic medical messages that originate from its customers, such as large hospitals, which are then routed to receiving customers such as clinics.

HNetPay is a Web portal used by many of the company’s HNetExchange customers to support the management of secure payments and billing. The HNetPay Web portal, hosted at Health Network production sites, accepts various forms of payments and interacts with credit-card processing organizations much like a Web commerce shopping cart. 

HNetConnect is an online directory that lists doctors, clinics, and other medical facilities to allow Health Network customers to find the right type of care at the right locations. It contains doctors’ personal information, work addresses, medical certifications, and types of services that the doctors and clinics offer. Doctors are given credentials and are able to update the information in their profile. Health Network customers, which are the hospitals and clinics, connect to all three of the company’s products using HTTPS connections. Doctors and potential patients are able to make payments and update their profiles using Internet-accessible HTTPS Web sites.

Information Technology Infrastructure Overview 

Health Network operates in three production data centers that provide high availability across the company’s products. The data centers host about 1,000 production servers, and Health Network maintains 650 corporate laptops and company-issued mobile devices for its employees.
