General goals

Students should come away with the ability to put their knowledge of software engineering and databases to use, as well as other practical knowledge they learn in the subject, by undertaking a project to analyse and design an information system using software development support tools. Undertaking work in groups, as takes place in an industrial setting.

Specific goals

Knowledges

  1. Consolidation of concepts previously acquired in software engineering and databases.
  2. Basic knowledge of project management.
  3. Practical knowledge of CASE tools and development environments.

Abilities

  1. Acquire expertise in development tools.
  2. Systematic monitoring of analytical and design processes.
  3. Strenght the ability in team work

Competences

  1. Teamwork, with clearly differentiated roles allocated to individual team members.
  2. Planning ability.
  3. Ability to seek information by oneself.
  4. Ability to continue and re-use work done by others.
  5. Oral an written expression.

Project

Description

(-)

Development plan

(-)

Docent Methodolgy

Theory presentations: exposition of specific concepts for the project.
Those expositions are interleaved with lab sessions, when needed for the project, so, all the activities take place in the lab rooms (in the contents and planning sections the total time of expositions included in each topic is specified as T hours)

Lab sessions: group work with the teacher on hand to provide help, discussions, negotiating proposals, presentation of assignments.

Lab work outside class hours, using the LCFIB's tools.

Evaluation Methodgy

The following grades will be awarded:



Development grade (NDes) - participation and work in the lab sessions



Project documentation grade (NDoc)



Grade for oral presentation of project (NP)



The grade for each participant"s role (NR) will take into account how it is played, related documents (percentage participation) and the presentation itself (part played in the role)



The overall grade awarded to the team will be calculated using the following formula: NG = 0.1*NDes + 0.6*NDoc + 0.3*NP



Each student will be graded according to the following formula: N = 0.5*NG + 0.5*NR , according to the role he or she plays.

Previous capacities

Given that this is a project-based course, students are expected to have the knowledge, skills and competencies needed, especially with regard to modelling using UML, and other standard languages (OCL, SQL, etc.).

Software Engineering 1 and 2 and Databases are prerequisites.
