Ceg 460/660-01: Computer Engineering, Eric Maston

Computer Science & Engineering Syllabi

This course is concerned with the techniques of designing and constructing large program. Some of the required basic concepts necessarily have to be developed using small programs as examples. To this extent, we also study programming-in-the-small. The overall objectives are to present an overview of issues in the development of software, to discuss terminology, to illustrate via example case studies, and to give sufficiently detailed advice on how to develop quality software. Hands-on experience is emphasized through the use of homework and a class project.
