Objectives At the completion of this subject students should be able to understand and apply the principles and models in the specification, design and implementation of medium-sized software systems; use methods, notations and techniques for various software design approaches; and use software process to track functional and non functional requirements of systems.
Synopsis This subject provides a general introduction to software engineering from specification to implementation. Software engineering principles that can be applied for `programming in the medium' projects are explored. Introduction to formal specification. Different software design approaches are considered - function-oriented, and OO. Methods, notations and tools for representing design diagrams. OO programming; Implementation strategies and issues - top-down and bottom-up development. Debugging, Assertions. Group project with presentation and documentation.
