Totals
Plans for, and known bugs in, the Totals module.
Module Purpose
Totals analyzes historical data recorded by the ShowGames module and displays various statistics, including station utilization, most popular games, most popular stations, and so on.
Module Status
Version 1 is stable and in use.
Known Bugs
None
Plans for Version 2
- Add ability to show stats by day of week and hour of day, maximum number of copies of a game running at any given time, most popular games during a given time period, most popular games by day of week, etc.
- If ShowGames poll data is moved to MySQL, then add an option for Totals to extract and export that data to a CSV file so the user can do further analysis on their own.
- Pull-down menu allowing user to select the specific report they want, rather than getting everything.
- Plot data in graphs; perhaps have an option for graphical or tabular output.
- Totals needs to ignore multiple instances of software running on game stations; if 3 copies of Internet Explorer are running, only one should be used in statistics, and if 2 copies of CS are running, again, only one should be used. If this is not done then statistics are thrown off. The theory here is that while computers are multi-tasking, people, for the most part, aren't.
- Include a standard schedule of business hours, so that Totals can calculate “typically available units” and then calculate utilization on that basis, instead of measured units available.
