Objectives

Software engineering to develop computer and information based systems involves the application of engineering principles and methods to the design, implementation and operation of large software systems. This unit provides an introduction to the subject, describing the software life-cycle and the techniques that can be applied in each of its stages. Approximately half of the material is concerned with methods for analysis, specification and design, including the functional and object-oriented approaches. The remainder addresses issues of management and quality assurance. In this unit COMP345 and ISYS346 share classes. Both will involve a substantial group project drawn from the full breadth of IT applications (for COMP345) or involving modern database technology in an information systems setting (ISYS346).

The unit convenor will mark all submitted work.
