CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION

The software life cycle and the phases in software development: Project scheduling, feasibility study, analysis, specification, design, implementation, testing, quality assurance, documentation, maintenance. Management issues: Planning, organization, control. Also included are formal specification techniques, structured programming, modular system design and other current issues. (Prerequisite: CMPE 218)

 

AIMS & OBJECTIVES

Teaching the basic concepts of software engineering with specific emphasis on the practical issues involved in software project management through the use of a one-semester design project.

RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER COURSES

Prerequisite for this course is CMPE-211, which teaches object-oriented programming. CMPE-354 course is the first course students learn database systems, therefore it is strongly recommended.

 

LEARNING -TEACHING METHODS

Lectures covering the text book material, basic software engineering project management concepts, weekly design studio meetings discussing the term project, and exams assessing student success.

 

ASSIGNMENTS

A group term project, which is designing a software system for a current problem in the software market. The project includes a proposal, an intermediate report and presentation, and a final presentation and report. Design studio meetings are used to give information to students about the project management process and to assess the development towards the final product.

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT

Midterm Exam: 30%, Term project: 30%, Final exam:40%

 

ATTENDANCE

Compulsory for design studio meetings.

ACADEMIC HONESTY – PLAGIARISM

Cheating is copying from others or providing information, written or oral, to others.  Plagiarism is copying without acknowledgement from other people's work. According to university by laws cheating and plagiarism are serious offences punishable with disciplinary action ranging from simple failure from the exam or project, to more serious action (letter of official warning suspension from the university for up to one semester). Disciplinary action is written in student records and may appear in student transcripts.
