Dear Students,

we just uploaded an archive with a couple of test cases to the CMS. The archive contains several folders, and each folder consists of a configuration file, as well as one or more test input and expected output files.

Also, we noticed that the assignment sheet is not completely clear how the traffic lights should behave if Orange is on, but neither Bottom or Top. Therefore, we decided to exclude this case and we will not test for it. That means, you can assume that the feature model has an additional constraint Orange ⇒ (Bottom v Top). This change should not require any additional work on your side.

The lecture Software Engineering covers a broad range of topics in software engineering with a special focus on software variability, configuration, generation, and optimization. It builds on basic programming and software engineering concepts, as taught in the lectures Programming 1 & 2 and Softwarepraktikum. Topics that are covered include:

  • Domain analysis, feature modeling
  • Automated reasoning about software configuration using SAT solvers
  • Runtime parameters, design patterns, frameworks
  • Version control, build systems, preprocessors
  • Collaboration-based design
  • Aspects, pointcuts, advice
  • Expression problem, preplanning problem, code scattering & tangling, tyranny of the dominant decomposition, inheritance vs. delegation vs. mixin composition
  • Feature interaction problem (structural, control- & data-flow, behavioral, non-functional feature interactions)
  • Variability-aware analysis and variational program representation (with applications to type checking and static program analysis)
  • Sampling (random, coverage)
  • Machine learning for software performance prediction and optimization

 

Prerequisites

  • Knowledge of programming concepts (as taught in the lectures *Programming 1* and *Programming 2*)

  • Basic knowledge of software processes, design, and testing (as taught and applied in the lecture *Softwarepraktikum*)

 

Assignments / Exam

Beside the lecture and weekly practical exercises, there will be a number of assignments in the form of mini-projects for each student to work on (every two to three weeks). The assignments will be assessed based on the principles covered in the lecture. Passing all assignments is a prerequisite for taking the final written exam. The written exam will be graded. Further examination details will be announced by the lecturer at the beginning of the course.

In short:

  • Passing all assignments (prerequisite for the written exam)

  • Passing the written exam
