Software Development and Software Engineering (Autumn 2019)

Abstract

The course is an introduction to software engineering, software development, and object-oriented programming for Data Science BSc students.   

Description

Please be aware that changes may occur!

Content:

• principles of software engineering
• software architectures and design patterns
• object-oriented analysis and design with UML as modeling language
• object-oriented implementation with Java as programming language

Formal prerequisites

To be determined.

Intended learning outcomes

After the course, the student should be able to:

• Explain and be able to execute the essentials of all primary facets of software development within software engineering including analysis, design, implementation, testing, validation, and verification
• Describe and apply modeling techniques for analysis and design
• Describe and apply object-oriented methods for analysis, design and implementation, e.g., in the programming language Java
• Explain the principles of software architecture, including fundamentals of a variety of common architecture styles and design patterns
• Construct useful, coherent, large-scale systems of up to approx. 10 KLOC in size, including the ability to perform system and domain analysis for a given problem, propose an appropriate software architecture, write a system specification and its implementation, and validate the implementation against its specification.
• Describe processes to plan and run a software engineering project including different stakeholders and their respective roles.
