- Abstract
- The aim of the course is to introduce the students to the lifecycle of the analysis, design, development and operation of complex software systems, respecting various aspects of systems quality and sustainability.
- Learning outcomes
- At the end of the course students should:
know the basic steps and tasks of the IS development process;
have detailed understanding of the techniques of requirements specification, system analysis and design, testing and maintenance;
know the characteristics of object-oriented approach to system analysis and design;
be able to model a medium-size IS in UML. - Key topics
- Software development, UML Use Case diagram.
- Requirements specification, UML Activity diagram.
