Learning objectives

  • The goal of the subject is to give students knowledge of object oriented and agile methods and tools used in information system development and to learn them to apply these methods and tools.
  • Students will know selected object oriented and agile methods and techniques in information system development at an advanced level.
  • They will be able to develop suitable models during information system requirements analysis and design, mainly in the UML language.
  • Students will learn how to analyze a design solution of a given problem in a small team. They learn to present and defend both partial and final results of the project.

Why is the course taught

Requirement analysis of new or updated software and its subsequent design are important prerequisites for efficient software deployment and successful deployment, operation, and maintenance, whether it is the development of information systems, mobile applications, or embedded software for dedicated devices. Proper object design, knowledge of UML or agile approaches, advanced technologies for implementation or development (code management, CI/CD, etc.) are useful for every developer, designer, analyst, or system architect.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

  • Basic knowledge of software engineering. 
  • Knowledge of the paradigms of and practical experience with object-oriented programming.

Syllabus - others, projects and individual work of students

  • Informal requirement specification of a given part of an information system being solved as the project.
  • Requirements specification and design of the of the system in UML.

Progress assessment

  • Mid-term written exam; there is no resit; excused absences are solved by the guarantor deputy.
  • The implementation and submission of the project results in the prescribed terms; excused absences are solved by the assistant.
  • Final exam with; the minimal number of points which can be obtained from the final exam is 20 (otherwise, no points will be assigned to the student); excused absences are solved by the guarantor deputy.

Exam prerequisites

Duty credit consists of submitting and defending project results, and of obtaining at least 24 points for activities during semester.
