After successful completion of the course, students are able to define requirements for software applications and, based on them, to design a software architecture. In addition, students are able to use object-oriented models for this purpose.
In combination with the learning outcomes of the VU OOP (384.061), students are able to develop software to a given problem statement.
Developing software should follow guidelines. Such guidelines are given in software development processes. They specify the workflow and the notation of the models as well as the documents to be created. This course deals with the following topics:
This course includes both a lecture and an excercise part. In the course of the latter, the students work on a practical example to further deepen the content presented in the lecture part. In the course of this excercise part, two iterations are carried out, so that the students receive feedback and suggestions for improving their work.
As part of the excercise, the students have to create two documents (SRS - Software Requirements Specification and SDD - Software Desing Description). The final versions of the documents after the second iteration are part of the overall evaluation. The evaluation also includes an oral presentation of the documents and an oral theory exam of the content presented in the lecture.

Students must be familiar with the concept of object-oriented programming.
