BCS 3107- Object Oriented System Analysis Design

Credits Units 3
Pre-requisite Object Oriented Programming II
Purpose of the Course This course builds on the programming skills developed
in Object Oriented Programming. Its purposes is to help
students learn about software design through study and
practice, processing from simple design to software
with more complex structure and behavior, with bias to
UML.
Expected learning outcomes At the end of the course student will be able to:
1. Describe how object oriented design can facilitates
the processes of software development.
2. Identify the objects in a systems and assign
responsibilities to system components ,
3. Analys problems and develop conceptual
models,geneate designs from the models and write
program code that implement the designs.
Course content This course focuses on object oriented paradigm,
comparison with structured design methods
