Course Objectives: | Provides in depth the concepts, principals, methods, and best practices in software architectures; emphasizes on team projects to architect domain-specific architectures, service-oriented architectures, product-line architectures, adaptive and generative architectures. This course provides an overview for software engineering concepts and architectures. Students will work in small groups to design and implement software applications. The course will also provide a high-level overview of the software engineering discipline: software requirements, software design, software construction, software management, and software quality and testing. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Define the phases of the software development lifecycle 2. Describe the difference between project and process metrics 3. Define the terms version control and change control 4. Apply the methods for performing requirements elicitation and requirements analysis 5. Discuss important design principles such as information hiding and abstraction 6. Discuss the differences between structured and object oriented analysis and design 7. Define key testing terms such as black box testing and white box testing 8. Construct the activities of the software lifecycle for a small to medium software project |
