Implement a system according to the following description

The Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Centre (PSIC) is developing a new system to help the booking of various treatments it provides. The system stores information on its physiotherapist and patients who take treatments. For all members of the PSIC, the centre maintains a unique ID number, full name, address, and telephone number. Each physician has one or more areas of expertise, such as “Physiotherapy”, “Osteopathy”, “Rehabilitation”. The centre also has a few rooms such as medical consulting suites A, B, C, swimming pool and gym (for rehabilitation session).

Physicians offer treatments in their areas of expertise: these treatments will be named (for example “Neural mobilisation”, “Acupuncture”, “Massage”, “Mobilisation of the spine and joints”, “Pool rehabilitation”). The appointment will be booked at a specified date/time period (e.g. “Saturday 1st May 2021,10:00-12:00), and take place in a room (e.g. medical consulting suite A). An appointment can be changed (i.e., cancelling it and booking a new appointment) or cancelled before it takes place. An appointment is attended when a patient has been checked in.

Implement a way for patients to look up and book treatment appointments with various physicians. A patient can look up an area of expertise, see a list of available physicians and the available treatments they offer including the time and room, and then book the appointment they choose. For example, there may have two physicians who offer Massage at different times. A patient may also directly look up a physician by their name to find all the available treatments offered including the time and room. Therefore, your system should provide two ways for looking up the available treatments.

Visitors often come to the centre for initial consultation. Allow them to look up a physician by either expertise or name. Each physician will have 2 consultation hours each week (e.g., 2 hours on Monday afternoon). Visitors can be given an appointment to see the physician within a 30-minutes time slot they choose. Visitors do not need to be registered with the system but their names can be recorded as notes to each consultation appointment. Patients (not visitors) cannot book an appointment with one physician during his/her consultation hours.

Your tasks:

1. Create a class diagram, highlighting the main classes in the system and their associations. Include the attributes and key methods.
2. Implement the system, using Junit tests to confirm the functionality.
3. Write a short report (no page limit) explaining your program.

Discuss:

1. a) Any assumptions made about the system, in addition to the above description.
2. b) The overall structure and design of your program.
3. c) Any design patterns/design principles used.
4. d) The JUnit tests.
5. e) Any refactoring used during the development of the system.

Deliverables:

1. Develop your code using bitbucket or other version control software. Take snapshots of your project repository and commit messages. Include the snapshots in your report.
2. Submit to Studynet:
3. Your report with the UML class diagrams in a single PDF document.
4. An executable jar file, demonstrating your final system. The system should have some data preloaded (as described above).
5. A zip-file containing the source code of your project.
