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.
