Reflect Upon The Project Experience

One very important lesson I learnt was the importance of gathering complete user requirement details as early as possible. Some of the requirements for my project were only obtained towards the end of the project, which left little time to implement them -- in fact, some were never successfully and completely implemented.

Another mistake I made was underestimating the amount of time required to produce a project such as this one, and not starting it early enough.

I noticed when looking at previous projects that it was sometimes difficult to find the information required, due to the relatively coarse-grained table of contents, and the lack of an index. For this reason, I decided to include an index in my report, which was quite easy to do since LATEX can easily generate one.
