The Lab Course is intended to teach the basic concepts of software project management and development for medical applications. You will be confronted with a brief introduction to software project management concepts such as requirement analysis, software design, coding guidelines and unified modeling language (UML). In addition, topics like software version control, deployment engineering and testing will be explored. You will be assigned a medical software project to apply the mentioned concepts in a real-life scenario.Prerequisites
This course requires basic knowledge of C++. The concepts of OO Programming and other concepts as conducted in the Introduction to CS lecture are assumed.Schedule
