Course Outcome
The course involves modern topics & concepts of software implementation and compares new methods and practical implementation (agile programming) to traditional (procedural programming).
The purpose of this course is the acquisition of knowledge in modern techniques and software implementation processes (agile programming, extreme programing etc.). Using paradigms of both software implementation concepts (agile and planned), the essential characteristics are presented to the students in order to improve their skills in the development of business software...
After completing the course the student will have acquired the necessary knowledge and skills to:
- Be aware of basic terms of Plan-driven Object-oriented Software Implementation
- Be able to implement Plan-driven Object-oriented Software
- Be aware of the Standards and Quality Measurement in plan-driven Systems
- Have knowledge of methods and agile programming practices
- Compare and evaluate methods and practices of plan-driven & agile programming.
- Compare and evaluate implementations with a plan-driven and agile development philosophy
- Adapt methods and practices to software peculiarities
