Learning Outcomes

At the end of the course unit, the student must be able to:
CO1. Apply the SDP, particularly the I&I process, in a deterministic way;
CO2. Apply requirements engineering and analysis methods that enhance the understanding and specification of the application domain;
CO3. Apply and justify the adoption of software design methods, principles, patterns and architectures;
CO4. Apply a test-driven development (TDD) approach for system construction;
CO5. Build the system in accordance with the design, using C++;
CO6. Apply appropriate artifacts and notations for describing the problem, the analysis, the design and the solution.
