    This course introduces the techniques used in the design and implementation of web applications. Using development environments such as Dreamweaver, Visual Studio, Eclipse, Netbeans, and SQL Management Studio, students write code for the browser (HTML, Cascading Style Sheets, javascript, ajax), web application server (JSP, PHP, or C# .NET), and database server (SQL, stored procedures, triggers). Students learn about internet protocols and how to work with web application objects (e.g., request, response, session). Students learn how design patterns such as MVC (Model-View-Controller) can and should be applied to the multi-tiered, distributed software that make up today’s web applications. XML (a format commonly used to transfer data over the internet) and web services (a method call to a remote computer over the internet) are discussed and demonstrated. Each student will program their own web application, expanding on its functionality each week in the lab. Prerequisite:    C or better in C+IN SC 2107 (0072), and C or better in C+IN SC 2168 (0068)

    The goal is to introduce students to modern and extremely useful topics in computational statistics. It focuses on computational aspects and provides a hands-on introduction to fundamental concepts of data analysis. The course is composed of 3 hours lecture and 2 hours lab with programming assignments in Matlab. Consequently, the students will be able to immediately see their results with programming assignments in Matlab. No prior Matlab knowledge is required. The course offers a solid foundation for further courses in data mining, machine learning, artificial intelligence, robotics, computer vision, and in general in computational statistics and scientific computing. Prerequisite:    C+IN SC 1068 (0067) or 1073 (C081) with a grade of C or better, and MATH 1042 (0086) with a grade of C or better
