Lectures

Week Date Content
1 Jan 24 Slides: Course objectives; project teams; postmortem report; grading; good applications; change and complexity; how to achieve good design; iterative process; poor design not a failure; Rick's Guitars; problems
2 Jan 29 Slides: Continued iterations: (#2) remove string fields and return multiple matches, (#3) encapsulate what changes, (#4) new characteristics, (#5) refactored code, delegate the matching task

Example programs: RicksGuitars-1.zip   RicksGuitars-2.zip   RicksGuitars-3.zip   RicksGuitars-4.zip   RicksGuitars-5.zip
Jan 31 Slides: Summary; cohesion; loose coupling; OOA&D is about satisfaction; requirements elicitation; functional and nonfunctional; requirements of requirements; how to get requirements; use cases; use case descriptions; Functional Specification; Assignment #1
3 Feb 5 Slides: Key points for good design; iterative development; solutions to adding a new mandolin instrument; Instrument and InstrumentSpec classes; abstract classes; revised Inventory class; Guitar, GuitarSpec, Mandolin, MandolinSpec classes; red flags; more instruments; design doesn't scale well; encapsulation to the rescue?

Example programs: RicksMusic-1.zip
Feb 7 Slides: Revisit our design; encapsulate with a hash map; use the Boost C++ library; boost::any; new attribute classes; the improved design; conclusions

Example programs: RicksMusic-2.zip   Boost C++ library
Install the Boost header files (no need to build the libraries). In each project, tell Eclipse (or use the -I option on the command line) where you installed them.
4 Feb 12 Slides: Complexity; decomposition: algorithmic and object-oriented; hierarchy; design in software engineering; analysis precedes design; paralysis by analysis; where do classes come from; categories of classes; class responsibilities; class relationships: dependency, aggregation, inheritance; UML diagrams; class diagrams; sequence diagram; Assignment #2
Feb 14 Slides: Textual analysis; CRC cards; UML class diagrams: dependency, association, examples; UML state diagram; proposed C++ Date class; code to the interface; factory method design pattern; Day class design

Goals

Become familiar with object-oriented analysis and program design. Employ industry-standard practices of an object-oriented approach to software development. Avoid the pitfalls of object-oriented design.

The primary goal of this course is to become a much better programmer.

The instructor will share decades of experience as a successful software developer in industry, government, and scientific research institutions. The programming examples will be mostly in C++, but the material will apply well to other object-oriented languages such as Java.

You will follow industry-standard best practices and use software development tools that are common in today’s software industry.

You will develop the critical job skill of working in a small project team to successfully develop a software application that uses shared interfaces and data formats. Your application can then interact with applications from other teams to exchange data and results.

Department policy is to enforce
all course prerequisites strictly
