Software Engineering

 FUKUDA Hiroaki
Course description
This course introduces software development processes and basic software engineering techniques, including techniques for managing artifacts, quality and time of software development to students. In addition, state of the art technologies in software engineering are also to be addressed. This course provides many small exercises in class and some reports outside class to help students master these techniques.
Purpose of class
The purpose of this course is to help students acquire basic knowledge and skills which are required in developing not-small-sized information systems by teams or larger organizations.
Goals and objectives
  1. Students understand the definition of software development processes and their importance.
  2. Students understand items to be described in software requirements specification documents, and can describe software requirements by using basic techniques.
  3. Students understand the importance of software design and items to be described in software design documents, and furthermore techniques for good coding and reviewing.
  4. Students understand what testing is, and can use basic test case design methods including equivalence partitioning, boundary analysis, state-based testing, white-box testing, and methods for evaluating the result of testing.
  5. Students can define quality requirements, and understand and can use basic techniques for quality management and project management.
