Calendar Description
Theory and development of software systems. This course will discuss computer ethics. Possible topics include: software development processes, requirement specification, class and scenario modeling, state modeling, UML, design patterns, traceability. Students are to complete a team project using a CASE tool.
Assumed Background
- Practical experience with rudimentary software design techniques
- able to take an assignment description and identify the objects that are required
- able to apply concepts of encapsulation to organize the required objects
- able to identify opportunities for code reuse and implement them
- able to apply advanced object-oriented programming concepts, including polymorphism and generic programming
- Practical experience in designing, implementing, testing and documenting small to medium size object-oriented programming assignments
Learning Objectives
- Understand the theory of large scale software system development
- recognize the need for using a formal development process
- learn the phases of software development life cycle (requirements elicitation, analysis, high-level design, detailed design, implementation, testing)
- learn basics of project management
- Gain the practical experience to:
- analyze a problem description for a large system
- apply each phase of the software development life cycle
- produce quality output for each phase
- Prepare for a career as a software development professional:
- develop tools and strategies for working as a member of a team
- understand the Software Engineering Code of Ethics; learn to identify and analyze ethical dilemmas in a systematic fashion
