To complete this project, you have sent your best hero, Beowulf, to eradicate the monster. Now your group of three must write the report of the success of the project. One person (data processor) will be in charge of typing the report in final format. One person (writer) does most of the writing.

The supervisor is also responsible for writing several sections of the report and seeing that the day's portion of the report is completed and turned in on time.
