COMP 405 is a topics-driven exploration of cutting-edge object oriented design issues and concepts including mutable recursive data frameworks, design patterns for lazy evaluation, sorting, parsing and games, service-oriented architectures and cloud computing.
The goal of COMP 405 is two-fold: one is to introduce new object-oriented design concepts and the other is raise the level at which those topics are discussed. Students will learn to discuss the OOP/D concepts in terms design patterns, applicability, pros/cons and other programming paradigms. Learning to articulate one's conceptions verbally and in writing are key goals of the course as well as the ability to critically evaluate the opinions expressed by others.
Prerequisites: Comp310 (Detailed knowledge and practice in abstract structure and behavioral representations, delegation model programming, design patterns and Java are required.)
Primary target audience: Second or third year CS students who are interested in object-oriented programming and design, large flexible systems, enterprise-class networked applications, dynamically configurable systems and software engineering. Students who plan on taking Comp410 in the future are must take Comp310 beforehand and are encouraged to take Comp405 as well in preparation for Comp410.
