Information: |
As software and hardware boundaries melt, the development of
large very complex systems has moved away from an ad-hoc individual
approach to that of an architecturally modeled family based
approach.
Many multi-billion dollar corporations such as Boeing, Raytheon,
General Motors, Philips and Nokia are moving towards a software
development paradigm called software product line engineering
(SPLE).
In SPLE software systems are modeled as families of software
products, rather than individual programs through the use of
a well-defined architectural models that define points of
commonality and variability. SPLE provides a way to re-use
development artifacts resulting in the reduction of both time to market and overall development costs.
In this course, students will learn about the field of software architecture. We will examine core architectural styles and learn an architectural description language to express these. We will focus on the state of the art in software product line development including software validation techniques that leverage the architectural model. Students will learn through several case studies and assignments. Additional topics on software modeling will be included as time permits. The course will have a project component. Project choices will
include a team development project as well as individual research
projects.

| Academic Dishonesty | |||||||||
|
Unacceptable collaboration will be considered a
violation of the Student Code of Conduct, and will result in a failing
grade for the course. In addition, the incident will be reported to the CSE Department
in accordance with the CSCE department policy on academic integrity.
You are responsible to read the CSCE department policy and adhere to it. Please make sure if you
obtain ideas from others you give credit to your source. If questions arise during the course
of working on a problem, please feel free to
contact the instructor for a clarification either by telephone, electronic mail,
or by an office visit. Please see the CSE Departmental Academic Integrity Policy for more details. |
