The course is providing an introduction to the work of an architect in projects as it is done in the industry. An introduction is given for current important technology concepts like SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) and BPM (Business Process Management). Architectural Methods are introduced that are used to structure, describe, and specify architectures based on functional and non-functional requirements. Work products, documents, diagrams and models are discussed and used in order to specify the architecture of a solution. This approach is used by the students to work on a proposal of a real case in group work; this case study is presented in one of the lectures. Finally, Enterprise Architecture concepts are introduced and Governance of architectures within a complex organizational structure of a company is discussed.
The lecture will be on Fridays from 12:15 to 13:45 (possibly at BIN 2.A.10) starting on September 19.
The course material for the lectures can be found in the respective subdirectories (in the navigation to the left).
Students work on a case study for a real case that is presented at one of the lectures. The rating of this term work is one third of the overall exam rating. In addition, there is either a written exam or an oral exam that counts two thirds of the overall exam rating. If the amount of students is such that an oral exam can be done, there will be an oral exam.
The grade in this course will be based on the term work (1/3) and the final exam (2/3). To pass the course the term work as well as the exam must be passed.
