Prerequisites

Course outline

The need for building large scale Software has been increased in the last two decades. Nowadays, Software engineers are less likely to design data structures and algorithms from scratch. They are required to build systems from library and framework components. The Software System Design course aims to teach students the m ain concepts related to the construction of software systems. The course covers technical topics such as concepts of design for complex systems, object oriented programming, UML notation, among others.

Expected learning outcomes

After taking the course, students will

  • understand and apply object-oriented design techniques;
  • develop and evaluate software systems;
  • express the specifications and design of an application using UML;
  • specify parts of the design using a formal design language (OCL);
  • have experience designing medium-scale systems with patterns;
  • have experience testing and analysing software.

Expected acquired core competences

  • Formal Models and Semantics
  • Requirements Engineering
  • Software Design
  • Software Engineering
  • Software Evolution
