Students shall be able to understand and apply advanced methods, techniques, and processes in software engineering. A special focus is set on engineering cloud- and Web-based software.
In this context, we primarily discuss architectural concerns of Web-based software, cloud computing, engineering for elasticity, advanced programming techniques often encountered in the context of Web-based software projects (i.e., aspect-oriented programming and domain-specific language engineering), performance management, and Web release engineering.
This course offers a combination of lectures and a project with a presentation. This structure allows the students to actively learn during the lecture and in preparation before and after the lecture using concrete examples. Grading will be based on the project, presentations, and the oral exam.
The project this year is done in teams of 3 students. Each team chooses one cloud computing technology (e.g., AWS EC2 or Microsoft Azure) and then builds an elastic Twitter sentiment analysis platform using the chosen technology.
The project is presented to the rest of the class on two presentation days. The first presentation should focus on the architecture of the solution, while the second presentation shall demo the final product.
More details to the project are in this PDF document (PDF, 178 KB).
