Description<\/span><\/h2>\n

Contemporary software engineering takes several distinct and rapidly changing forms. <\/span>First, Agile methods<\/em> are based on the need for flexibility while applications are being built. <\/span>Agile methods constitute a radical departure from pre-existing methods: They rely on newly developed technologies such as test-driven development, XUnit<\/span>, and refactoring. <\/span>Another form is the emergence of open-source development. <\/span>We discuss the architectural and operational implications of open source development and explore its relationship with agile methods. <\/span>The course will also discuss aspect-oriented programming, the decomposition of applications into onshore and offshore components, design for security, and formal methods. <\/span>Laboratory course.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
