4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: IST 211, IST 221. This course is a continuation of IST 211 and is intended to prepare students as advanced end users and developers capable of designing, developing and implementing superior solutions based on a contemporary Object Oriented Programming language. On completion of the course, students will be proficient in designing, coding, debugging, testing, and distributing applications. Coding of applications will include detailed descriptions of algorithms to perform common programming tasks such as sorting, searching, and hashing. Efficiency issues are also discussed. Students are exposed to database programming techniques using Data Object Model.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: IST 211, IST 221. Presents basic systems principles and concepts; logical analysis, design, and modeling of information systems with emphasis on object-oriented methodologies; life cycle phases; use of the Unified Modeling Language, the Rational Unified Process, and Class-Responsibility-Collaboration (CRC) cards. A CASE tool is used to implement system features such as use cases, use case diagrams, class diagrams, sequence diagrams, collaboration diagrams, and state diagrams.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: IST 311. Students learn to develop a physical database based on a logical data model within the context of a commercial DBMS. Topics include conceptual, logical, and physical data models and modeling tools; structured and object design approaches; models for databases: relational and object oriented; design tools; data dictionaries, repositories, database implementation including user interface, data retrieval and maintenance, and reports; mastery of Structured-Query-Language (SQL) for retrieval, maintenance and administration; multi-tier planning and implementation; data conversion and post implementation review. Students construct physical database solutions using the .Net platform.
-
