Question
(Short Answer) Select ONE of the following scenarios, identify ONE reasonable risk in that scenario, write an appropriate complete statement for that risk including: risk, probability, impact, impact cost or schedule cost, mitigation plan, and contingency plan. (hint: see HW4 notes in chapter 8 slide deck) Note: I don't want to be grading forever, so be concise, points off for excess verbosity.
Option 1: A new virtual reality, massively multiplayer role playing game has been released. Only 10,000 copies were sold in the initial offering and you have managed to buy one of those. You played in the beta test and feel confident about your abilities and you already have the necessary neural helmet that will transfer your consciousness into the game while you play. You are all set to put on your helmet and say "Link Start!" But, could there be any risks...?
Option 2: You are have realized your dream to become the first human to walk on Mars. As you look down from your orbiter and see the your first sunrise over the red planet, you think about the next step in your mission. You will board the lander, strap in, close the air lock with the orbiter, and launch the lander. At the appropriate times, you will engage the retro-thrusters, then the parachute, and finally, the enormous spherical bumpers at the 4 corners of your pyramidal lander. Then stand by for a bumpy ride. What could possibly go wrong...?
Explanation / Answer
Option 1:
Playing with multiplayer is a quite interesting and enjoying game. As the game is released with a limited edition and as it is sold within a short span of time so naturally it will going to play a major impact among all. As from the beta test, it has realized the difficulty levels of the game and it is found that it can be played well in the full version. So the time is to play the game. The game has extra attracting features of using the neural helmet without which the game cannot be played. All the sensors will be connected to the brain, it can be said it is the controlling part of the game which a user will be controlled by sending various impulse of the signal into the brain. There are no serious side effects that may affect the brain to function properly but things can go wrong if the game is played for a prolonged hour of time. It can be dangerous if it is used for a long time. Sensors are always sending pulses which are not good if it takes for a longer time. It can cause any serious nervous breakdown and tissue can also be hampered after which there will be a probability of malfunctioning of the brain which can increase the unnatural activities in the body.
Multiplayer game is not bad or a harmful game, the game is very good and quite interesting but the techniques of using neural helmet should be newly designed by some other modes of technology so that while playing for a long time it should affect the brain from any health hazards. Certain changes are required in this category to make it smoother in the technology so that for long hours it can be played and can enjoy all its exciting features. Risk factors will bring another cost to the players who will be the sufferers in this context which they do not deserve at any cost. So it is the technology which needs an improvement before it is adopted by all, as the game is interesting so naturally all kids and people of different ages will also love to play the game. The changes are really necessary because it can degrade the biological process of a gamer that will play the game for long hours because the sensors will really affect the nerves and tissues of the person who is playing the game for a long time. The game is good but certain requirements for changes are too necessary for the technology.
