Object-Oriented Analysis and Design

This is a five-day lecture and lab-intensive course.

Course Objectives

To develop a solid understanding of the object-oriented paradigm.
To obtain an understanding of the differences between analysis and design based on the procedural versus object-oriented paradigm.
To study software development activities in the context of the object-oriented paradigm.
To learn object-oriented modeling using Unified Modeling Language (UML)
