Although "Software Architecture" has been offered for several years, the present form of the course is new. The scope covers both software architecture in a strict sense and an introduction to the non-programming aspects of software engineering. For the full course description see the official ETH catalog entry.
Project description: here.
The following are the two recommended textbooks for the course:
It is also recommended that you use a good software engineering textbook, such as:
Additional reference on patterns:
References on UML:
Eiffel:
The programming aptitude test will take place during one of the exercise sessions on Monday afternoon.
Exam
The exam will be written and will take place during the last lecture of the semester. No supplementary material is allowed except for dictionaries.
Previous Software Architecture exams are available here: Warning: the course in previous years had a narrower scope (software architecture only), with only 2 hours of lecture one 1 exercise hour, against the present 4 + 3 hours. As a consequence, past years' only give a partial view of what will be asked this year.You can use the forum to ask course- and exercise-related questions. The assistants will do their best to answer your questions as soon as possible. Click here to access the forum!.
