This course is designed to give students an introduction to an engineering approach in the development of high-quality software systems. It will discuss the important software engineering concepts in the various types of the common software process models. The students will also learn the concepts and techniques used in each software development phase including requirements engineering, software design and software testing. This course will also expose the students to utilizing object-oriented method (e.g., UML) and tools in analyzing and designing the software. At the end of this course, students are expected to be able to appreciate most of the common software engineering concepts and techniques as well as producing various software artifacts and deliverables.
- Apply the fundamental of software engineering, software process, requirements engineering to solve software engineering case studies.
- Build suitable software architecture, object-oriented design model and develop test cases in software engineering case studies.
- Construct software requirements model, software architecture, object-oriented design model and test cases with state-of-the-art methods and tools for a real-world software engineering problem.
- Ability to establish good rapport, interact with others, work effectively in a team and comprehend the interchangeable role of leaders and followers with team members.

| 6 | UML and tools | A UML (Unified Modeling Language) diagram is a visual representation of a system or process that uses standardized symbols and notations to depict the structure, behavior, and relationships between different components of the system. It provides a clear and concise way to communicate and document the design and architecture of a software system, enabling stakeholders to understand and analyze the system's various aspects. | ||

Diagrams are visual representations of information or data that help convey complex concepts, processes or systems in a clear and concise manner. Flowcharts are diagrams that use shapes and arrows to illustrate the steps in a process or algorithm. System architecture diagrams show the structure of a system and its components, illustrating how they interact with each other. There are many tools available for creating diagrams, including web-based applications like Diagrams.net, PlantUML, Mermaid.js, and Vega-Lite, as well as desktop software like yEd Graph Editor and Graphviz. Other tools like Structurizr and C4-PlantUML are designed specifically for creating system architecture diagrams, while Nomnoml and Mermaid.js can create various types of diagrams including UML diagrams and flowcharts.
