CS: Software Engineering

The way that software components — subroutines, classes, functions, etc. — are arranged, and the interactions between them, is called architecture. In this course you will study the ways these architectures are represented, both in UML and other visual tools. We will introduce the most common architectures, their qualities, and tradeoffs. We will talk about how architectures are evaluated, what makes a good architecture, and an architecture can be improved. We'll also talk about how the architecture touches on the process of software development.

Ce MOOC est une introduction aux notions de base de mécanique des structures en architecture. L’équipe pédagogique a souhaité renouveler l’approche de l’enseignement des structures en tenant compte des profonds changements en matière d’apprentissage des étudiants, mais elle n’en a pas pour autant abandonné les exigences de rigueur indispensables aux notions abordées. Cette approche est sensible et progressive, et partira des propres intuitions de chacun pour aller étape par étape vers la compréhension des phénomènes physiques en jeu.
