Procedural Programming (C/C++) under Unix. Data types, variable declarations, arithmetic expressions, conditional statements, macros, function prototypes, standard libraries, file processing, pointers, structures, unions, and dynamic memory management are discussed. Unix file system, shell scripts, input/output redirection, piping, programming with standard I/O, and unix system calls are covered.

Topics and methods supporting an experimental approach to the study of issues in computer science and software engineering. Course covers the basic principles of experimental design and case study construction. Emphasis in the course is on the use of empirical methods for decision making and the evaluation of research in computer science and software engineering that employ empirical methods.

Part I of two-semester sequence of team development of a software product for a specific customer. This capstone project utilizes and integrates knowledge and skills acquired through study of software engineering. Provides hands-on experience with large-scale problem from conception to implementation of the solution. Is conducted in a framework of well-defined low-ceremony software process. The lecture covers software engineering models, quality management, risk management, and provides introduction to software processes. Technical, logistical, and social issues associated with software development are addressed.
