Laboratory in Software Engineering: Course Description
Developed by MIT Professors Srinivas Devadas and Daniel Jackson, the course materials from 'Laboratory in Software Engineering' provide students with a broad introduction to software engineering. The course specifically looks at the techniques and tools used in creating large software systems. Lecture notes touch on many relevant topics, including object semantics, subclassing, object model notations, abstraction functions, representation invariants and design patterns. The course materials include detailed descriptions of two prior class projects dealing with Gizmoball and RSS Readers. Problem sets explore topics in greater depth.
The OpenCourseWare includes a list of lecture notes, problem sets, project examples and descriptions and instructions for the software tools used in the problem sets. To download the free course materials or to learn more, visit the laboratory in software engineering course page.
