Programming in a Health Care Domain

Catalog description

Intensive introduction to object-oriented programming concepts focused on the unique challenges such as those related to data volume, complexity, and uncertainty inherent to applications in a health care domain. Also covers the fundamentals of algorithm analysis and data structure design. Stresses a software engineering approach to abstraction for problem decomposition and solution formulation, with object-oriented and reusability concepts introduced early. Emphasizes the use of generic data structures and abstractions from template libraries for reusability, as well as modular design. In addition, also covers basic concepts of algorithms and data structures.
