Software process, analysis and design. Software development paradigms, system engineering, function-based analysis and design, and object-oriented analysis and design. Course will use team-projects for hands-on exercises. Course Information: Same as CSE 426. 3 undergraduate hours. 3 or 4 graduate hours. Prerequisite: One of CS 222, CS 240, CS 241, CS 340, CS 341 or ECE 391.

Varies by semester, using course notes available for free and linked from the course Wiki

Compare & Contrast different software engineering and development processes. (1), (2), (4), (6)
Learn a particular process (XP: user stories, test-driven development, refactoring, pair programming). (1), (2), (4), (6)
Improve activities that are common to most processes (configuration management, testing, metrics, documentation, reverse engineering, refactoring). (1), (2), (4), (6)
Contribute effectively to a team in maintaining existing large code (CS427) ot developing new code (CS428/9). (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6)
Communicate effectively, both orally and in writing, with peers and software customers (TAs), and describe your process (the latter for CS429). (3), (5)
Manage/organize software projects (requirements, architecture, design, documentation, management, planning). (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6)
Use a set of modern software development services (e,g., GitHub, Travis) (2), (3), (5), (6)
