Software Development Principles & Patterns
Course Description
The
goal of this course is to study and apply advanced software engineering
best practices, principles, and patterns that concern different phases
of the software development lifecycle and different aspects of the
software itself. In particular, we will study in detail the
fundamental GoF object-oriented design
patterns, object-oriented
reengineering patterns, and patterns that facilitate the
evolution of databases.
Learning Objectives & Expected Outcomes
The main
objectives of the course is that the students will be capable to:
- Identify issues of poor software design/implementation.
- Improve the quality of software that suffers from issues of poor software design/implementation by applying patterns.
Literature and Study Material
The main textbooks for the course are:- Design Patterns : Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software. GoF. Addison Wesley.
- Object-Oriented Reengineering Patterns. S. Demeyer, S. Ducasse and O. Nierstrasz.
- Refactoring to Patterns. J Kerievsky, Addison Wesley.
- Thinking in Patterns. Bruce Eckel.
Project
The
project is realized in groups of 2 students. The goal of the
project is to apply patterns in the design and development of a
particular a software application.
