CR: Curriculum Changes April 2012: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:41, 4 April 2012

Old: An introduction to functional and logic programming. Topics include: semantics of functional programming, assignment-free programming, the meta-circular interpreter, recursive functions, Prolog, backtracking, cutting, negation.

New: An introduction to alternative programming methodologies, techniques, and tools. Topics may include: functional programming, logic programming, constraint-based programming, and concurrent programming.

3004 will still include team work but will have a course load commensurate with a half credit course. No course description change.
Project for fall
- investigate team-based honours projects
- getting students involved in projects/research in third year
- research & design honours projects (dual track, one for going to industry, other for going to research)
- What are the learning objectives of the honours project?
