Course Catalog Description Study of design concepts and notations. Architecture, middleware architectures, design patterns, frameworks and components. Designing for qualities such as performance, security, reusability, reliability. Metrics and measurement. Basics of software evolution, reengineering, and reverse engineering. Students participate in a group project on software design. Pre-requisites: ICS 202 and SWE 215 Course Objectives 1. To develop a thorough understanding of students towards software design. Various aspects of software design like design approaches, design quality, design evolution, design environments and tools, etc. will be highlighted and discussed. [PO #3] 2. To learn how to work in teams. [PO #4] 3. To enhance communication and writing skills. [PO #4] 4. To instill life-long learning skills. [PO #5] Course Learning Outcomes Upon completion of the course, you should be able to: 1. Apply a wide variety of design patterns, frameworks, components, and architectures in designing a wide variety of software. [OC #4] 2. Develop different design solutions taking into consideration conflicting design principles. [OC #4] 3. Use sound software metrics to measure and assess the quality of the software. [OC #1] 4. Restructure existing design in order to improve its quality. [OC #4] 5. Work effectively as leader/member of a development team to deliver quality software design. [OC #2] 6. Express and effectively present a developed software design in a software design document (SDD) for a software project of significant size. [OC #8] 7. Employ appropriate methods and tools for developing design specifications. [OC #12]
