======Software Development Methods, Spring 2021======
This course introduces a selection of theories and practices that, we believe, will enhance the student's ability in developing correct and high-quality software. Its goal is to acquaint the students with some of the well-used methods and tools for practical software development as well as some fundamentals of software verification, so as to prepare them for a career in software development. The view taken here is that of an engineer (programmer, software engineer, or software architect) and hence the focus of the course is primarily on the technical aspects of software development process.

===== Syllabus/Schedule (with links to slides/notes) =====
We will start with an overview of the typical software development process and relevant 
issues and then study in greater details some fundamental elements of software modeling, design, 
and verification, along with several software productivity tools and development
practices. 
To practice applying these methods and tools, we will carry out a term project 
that involves the development of a large Web application.
We will also study Web application programming techniques and security, 
to better prepare for the project.
