Software Design

Catalog description

This course deals with the design and implementation of software subsystems. The concepts of object-oriented and cloud design patterns are introduced, and common patterns are applied to the development of software components. Laboratory projects provide an opportunity for students to implement components and to integrate them into complete systems. Concurrency risks and mitigations are introduced in both local and online computing contexts. As a final assignment, small teams of students conduct research on software design patterns and present and demonstrate the results of their investigations to the class.
