Lecture summary
When you perform the same task over and over, you can increase your efficiency and effectiveness in delivering software projects. By streamlining, standardizing and getting together international teams, software development became more and more industrialized in the past years. This lecture shows methods, tools and practical examples of industrial software projects and focuses on topics like:
- Software development processes (waterfall, v-model, industrial agile approaches)
- Tender process
- Requirements management
- Nearshoring and Offshoring
- Test automation and test management
- Standardization
- Technology blueprints
- Software project transition points
- Tool support
The lecture will be split in six aggregated unite blocks:
- Unit 1: kick-off, high level overview of methods and tools, introduction to case
- Unit 2-5: Walk through the phases of an industrial software development project case, always looking at methods, tools and practical examples to be applied within the phase.
- Unit 6: Presentation of team cases
Students will have to work in teams on an industrial software project case and will have to present their findings and results in January.
The lecture targets computer science and business informatics students at the end of their bachelor or during their master degree.
