Lectures and exercise

The purpose of this course is to give the students core skills in modeling and implementing a smaller IT system with user interaction. Focus is on modeling of both data that the system should contain and on tasks that the system should be able to solve. Requirements are seen from a user perspective. Thus it is of key importance to understand the difference between reality and its representation in the system. The students will firstly develop a model of an IT system and secondly build an IT system based on the model in a development environment. Finally they will obtain knowledge on the development process; how it is organized and managed.

Changes may accour.

Mondays at 1.00 - 5.15 p.m. in the period from 10 February - 28 April 2014.

For a normal lecture there is a number of chapters in the textbook as mandatory reading. Evaluation is based on participation in the course and a 3 hours written test.

After the course you will be able to:

• Plan and carry out development of an IT system by use of agile techniques.
• Create a data model and realize it in a simple database.
• Use different modelling techniques – relational, logic, UML and Object oriented
• Design, build and test a prototype
• Design, build and test a database with diverse objects.
• Discuss knowledge representation for a specific problem.
• Describe and use a systems development process.
