ANU FEIT DCS ] [Description] [ Lectures Tutorials Laboratories Groups ... Assessment COMP1110: Description COMP1110: Foundations of Software Engineering (6 credit points) Group A Summer Session Approximately twenty six one-hour lectures, six two-hour tutorials, six two-hour laboratories. Prerequisites Incompatible with , and ENGN2003, and ENGN1223, and COMP1120. Syllabus Introduction to methods and techniques for verification and validation of software systems. Introduction to the foundations and use of recursive algorithms in problem solving. Programming by contract. Structured data types, abstract data types and their applications. System life-cycle, modularization, and construction of large systems. Description Industrially relevant problems typically require programs of a size and complexity that renders undisciplined approaches to their construction destined to failure. This unit teaches the fundamental strategies of abstraction, decomposition and reuse as methods for overcoming these problems. Verification and validation techniques, with an emphasis on testing, are taught as a means to ensure that students are able to deliver the software products required of them, both in this unit and in their future careers. Once delivered, the working life of a product may well reach into decades. Students are therefore taught the skills and tools necessary to maintain software, and to create documented, maintainable software in the first place. Rationale This unit gives students the concepts and skills necessary to begin writing multi-module programs and to ensure the correctness of their programs. It introduces them to fundamental concepts in the software life-cycle, and in rigorous software development.

62. A Functional Pattern System For Object-Oriented Design The book uses the eiffel programming language to illustrate the patternswith running sample code. It includes a critical review http://www.verlagdrkovac.de/3-86064-770-9.htm

Home Informationen Verlagsprogramm Informatik ... Newsletter-Abo A Functional Pattern System for Object-Oriented Design Schriftenreihe Forschungsergebnisse zur Informatik, Bd. 47 Hamburg 1999, 328 Seiten ISBN 3-86064-770-9 Zum Inhalt: This book integrates the vital areas of object-orientation, functional programming, design patterns, and language design. The most important concepts from functional programming are captured with six design patterns: -FUNCTION OBJECTS (Black-box behaviour parameterisation) -LAZY OBJECTS (Evaluation-by-need semantics) -VALUE OBJECTS (Immutable values) -VOID OBJECTS (Abandoning null references) -TRANSLATOR (Homomorphic mapping with generic functions) These patterns can be used with any object-oriented language to advance software design. The patterns form a system, i.e., a collaborating set of patterns. In their "Related Patterns" sections the patterns refer to each other and to many other published design patterns. Each of the relevant areas (object-orientation, functional programming, design patterns) is introduced in the first part of the book. This part also compares the functional and object-oriented paradigms both in terms of concepts and on a calculus level. The second part presents the functional pattern system. This system should be beneficial to software practitioners since it integrates the functional paradigm into object-oriented software design. Hence, advantages which have been primarily available in functional languages can be used in object-oriented languages as well. Even when some functional concepts have been partially established in object-oriented software already, they can now be understood as specialised uses of more general function patterns.

The Eiffel Parallel Execution Environment EPEE (Eiffel Parallel Execution Environment) is an object oriented design framework for programming distributed memory parallel computers, developed within the PAMPA Project . It proposes a programming environment where data and control parallelism are totally encapsulated in regular Eiffel classes, without any extension to the language nor modification of its semantics. EPEE has been used to build Paladin , a parallel object oriented linear algebra library. EPEE Basic Principles Paladin POM Library Object-Oriented Software Engineering with Eiffel ...

70. Programming In Ruby Take the pure object orientation of Smalltalk, remove the quirky syntax and reliance on a workspace. Add the convenience and power of Perl, but without the special cases and magic conversions. Give it a clean syntax based partly on eiffel, add a few concepts from Scheme, CLU, Sather, Common Lisp. You end up with Ruby. Dr. Dobb's Journal http://www.ddj.com/articles/2001/0101/

73. Eiffel: The Syntax Describes the programming syntax in with links to the various sections. http://www.gobosoft.com/eiffel/syntax/

Eiffel: The Syntax The annotated Eiffel syntax described here is aimed at writers of Eiffel tools such as compilers, interpreters, syntax checkers, short and flat tools, pretty-printers, etc., who want to benefit from some tips and tricks. Although this is not the official Eiffel syntax specification provided by the Nonprofit International Consortium for Eiffel ( NICE ), it departs from it in only two or three well documented occassions. In particular, it explains where, and sometimes why, existing compilers have extended the Eiffel syntax. The Eiffel syntax constructs are listed into groups, starting with high-level constructs such as down to lexical components such as Identifier . Alternatively, these constructs are also given in alphabetical order . The notation used to describe the Eiffel syntax is specified elsewhere. A possible implementation of the Eiffel syntax in yacc - and lex -like format is also provided as an example. This page is also available in Japanese (translated by Iizuka Tomio Indexing Obsolete Inheritance ... Invariant end class Note Most Eiffel compilers do not check the validity of the optional comment after the keyword end . SmallEiffel emits a warning though. Note A file may contain more than one class declaration. However most Eiffel compilers have a limitation of one class per file.

Fenestra An Eiffel GUI library for the Win32 platform Summary Fenestra is a Win32 API GUI library, which while being specific to the Win32 API is high level enough to allow convenient programming in an object oriented manner. It also aims to be portable to any of the actively supported Eiffel compilers for the Win32 platforms, allowing users to mix and match compilers as they wishes. It is a freeware library. The full source code is distributed under the Eiffel Forum licence While being a library for Win32, it is hoped that it is compatible with third parties implementations of the API, possibly allowing portability to other platforms. Requirements Eiffel 3 compiler with ELKS-95 compliant kernel library Win32 API implementation C compiler and ETL-style Eiffel/C interface for the default runtime.

Dutch version Development Our Software engineering standards Web Programming Software engineering as a science has been around for, what, about 40, maybe 50 years now. Methods for developing reliable (error free) software are well established. Object oriented software construction (OOSC) is a way to organize software in several units (called classes) that describe the individual parts of the program. This makes for much better maintainable and more reliable programs - a change in one part does not affect the others. Other methods are assertions (the software checking itself while it's running), unit testing (automated error checking) and developing software based on a mathematical foundation so we can prove software correct. Yet, in web design, all these methods are largely ignored. Software is written `ad hoc' (without any form of justification), the programming languages used do not support OOSC or only a very limited form thereof, and assertions and unit testing are not used at all.

77. Eiffel In A Nutshell eiffel is the only OO language that also includes a comprehensive approach to Thelanguage itself is not just a programming language but also covers analysis http://archive.eiffel.com/eiffel/nutshell.html

Eiffel in a Nutshell Here is what everyone needs to know about Eiffel. You'll find lots more details in the rest of these Web pages. For the busiest of the busiest there is also the 1-minute summary After reading the present page you can use the complete Eiffel page to find links to many more detailed entries. What is Eiffel? Good question. Answering "an object-oriented language " is correct, but only part of the story. Eiffel is the only O-O language that also includes a comprehensive approach to software construction: a method , and an environment (EiffelStudio). The language itself is not just a programming language but also covers analysis, design and implementation. What are the goals of Eiffel? Eiffel pursues four major goals: To give you a competitive edge by enabling you to get your software out fast. To lower your maintenance and support costs by letting you produce bug-free software software that works the first time around. To allow you to react quickly to market demands by producing software that is easy to change and extend in response to user requests. To preserve your investment by giving you robust software that can be reused in many different developments.

Building bug-free O-O software: An introduction to Design by Contract (TM) Eiffel Software is the pioneer of Design by Contract and the Component Revolution. For a more detailed look at Design by Contract and how it can make your code more reliable read this document or watch the presentations Upcoming: A two day session, Eiffel and Design by Contract™ by Dr. Bertrand Meyer, will be held June 17 - 18, 2004 in Zurich, Switzerland. The seminar brochure in PDF format is available at: http://www.eiffel.com/general/industry_course_Eiffel.pdf Overview The notion of Design by Contract is central in the systematic approach to object-oriented software construction, as embodied in the Eiffel method. This article presents the key ideas. In our opinion the techniques outlined below are as important as the rest of object technology as important as classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism and dynamic binding, which they complement although only a subset of the O-O literature has so far devoted its attention to it. (See the references at the end of this paper.)
