Completion Assessment + Examination
Language of teaching Czech
Extent of teaching 2P+2C
Annotation
The objective of the course is to introduce the basic techniques of information system design and architecture. We will emphasize the use of standard design patterns in the distributed environments and concentrate on the general aspects of software systems, rather than on specific technologies or implementations.
Study targets
The goal of the course is to acquaint students with the industry standard practices of software development, both from the computational perspective and from the architecture perspective. Special emphasis will be given to construction of distributed systems in Java.
