Developing medium an dlarge scale software sstems requires analysis and design prior to implementation. This subject introduces students to software design, with specific focus on object-oriented design, and the implementaiton of designs using an object-oriented programming language. Topics include: software design priciples; object-oriented desing concepts and modelling; design patterns and their applications; object-oriented programming and frameworks.

On completion of this subject, students should be able to:

• Apply software design principles to object-oriented design
• Develop object-oriented models for a medium-sized software system
• Evaluate design trade-off of different designsImplement an object-oriented design in a suitable language
• Use commonly available object-oriented design frameworks for application development
• Apply knowledge of basic science and engineering fundamentals; and
• Develop simple programs that require concurrent execution

• Project work during semester, expected to take about 36 hours (30%)
• A mid-semester test (10%)
• A 2-hour end-of-semester written examination (60%)

To pass the subject, students must obtain at least 50% overall
