This year participants had a task preparing a visual transparent presentation of casino operations happening in real time. They develop a visual map of the casino layout and implement a wide range of analyzed quantitative data so that the casino management would have an instant look at business operations. “The key thing was to demonstrate a clear graphical user-friendly interface, and figure out which big data to show while using agile methodologies of development since they were very limited by time,” explains Jan Grilanc, a mentor to a group of students in Maribor.
