Schedule of Classes

Advanced topics of complex Web-based and mobile software systems: programming methodology, software engineering, components, architectures, services, requirements analysis, design and development models, integrated development environments, testing, quality, platforms. Cross listed with CS 593. For cross listed undergraduate/graduate courses, the graduate level course will have additional academic requirements beyond those of the undergraduate course.

Design and analysis of algorithms. Dynamic structures maintenance and hashing. Searching, sorting, and traversal. Time and space requirements; simplification; computational complexity; proof theory and testing; NP-hard and NP-complete problems.

Pattern recognition, search strategies, game playing, knowledge representation; logic programming, uncertainty, vision, natural language processing, robotics, programming in LISP and PROLOG. Advanced topics in artificial intelligence.

Special software engineering research and development projects under staff supervision. Emphasis on a specific topic and emerging technologies in the software engineering area.

Special projects under staff supervision on advanced problems in numerical or non-numerical branches of computer science. May be taken more than once under different topics for a maximum of 6 semester hours.

Individual study in an area of computer science relevant to the student's professional goals and not covered in a formal course offered by the department. May be repeated twice for a maximum of 6 credit hours.
