- Methodology for systems engineering.
- Verification and validation.
- Model driven development.

Learning outcome

Students shall acquire very good knowledge of UML, MSC and SDL, and be able to specify and implement systems using these languages and corresponding tools. In addition they shall acquire good knowledge of metodology for engineering distributed real-time systems and basic knowledge of ASN.1 og CCS.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures and exercises. One term assignment, where the students specify a telematic system using UML and MSC and implement the system using automatic code generation to Java. The course will be held in English if international students attend. Portfolio assessment is the basis for the grade in the course. The portfolio includes a written final exam (75%) and a midterm assignment (25%). The results for the parts are given in %-scores, while the entire portfolio is assigned a letter grade.
