NOVA 29-06
Object Oriented Modelling and Software Development with Agricultural Applications
Network: Informatics (IT) in Agriculture
| Course period | August 13-24, 2006 |
| Location | Tune Landboskole, Grevevej 20, DK-2670 Greve, Denmark |
| Course credit | 6 ECTS |
| Deadline for application | May 31, 2006 |
| Course abstract |
The course introduces object-oriented software development and object-oriented programming from the ground up. It presents concepts and tools for requirements capture, object-oriented analysis and design, and a concrete programming language (Java) in which to implement these designs. The course teaches how to describe software using Unified Modeling Language (UML) and its Object Constraints Language (OCL), and other state of the art concepts and graphical notations. Moreover, it presents modern tools to create and manipulate such descriptions. Some case studies of such models, drawn from agricultural or environmental problems, will be presented. The international invited lecturer is an expert in and co-developer of model-driven development, a recent and promising trend in object-oriented software development. The central goal of this work is to use visual models to describe software systems and also to automatically generate parts of the systems directly from the models. The course includes lectures and exercises, and a 2.5-day project in which the participants analyse, design and implement a software model, preferably related to their own area of research. |
