For this week in my Software Engineering class, after the first implementation of Wicket applications I was assigned to evaluate Greensmart's Wicket Application.
The details for the assignment were much like reviewing the WattDepotCLI's in my previous post, but a few modifications were made to the review criteria. The review criteria for this assignment can be found here.

My full review of the system in PDF format can be downloaded here
My overall thoughts:
Overall I think the project fulfills the assignment on the basic of levels. It does take in a date and outputs the Carbon Intensity throughout the day. But, without ever reading the homepage of their GoogleCode site, it’s hard to make out the purpose of the application. These are all just minor things that can be fixed given some more time.
The source code itself could use more descriptive JavaDocs and more in-line comments explaining implementation details. A few tweaks as to a more descriptive web application is also in order. They might also want to work on getting colors in the cells rather than having text. One last thing about the interface is that it should provide an overall conclusion based on the data being displayed (i.e. Carbon usage is currently high, hold off on extensive wattage for X hours…just something to think about).
The group appears to be working functionally, judging from the Hackystat sensor logs I could see certain people doing beginning tasks, then towards the end, the other members took over.
