Sessional Marks: 50 Univ-Exam-Marks:50 Total: 100
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The purpose of the Software Engineering Lab course is to familiarize the students with modern software
engineering methods and tools, Rational Products. The course is realized as a project-like assignment
that can, in principle, by a team of three/four students working full time. Typically the assignments have
been completed during the semester requiring approximately 60-80 hours from each project team.
2. The goal of the Software Engineering Project is to have a walk through from the requirements, design to
implementing and testing. An emphasis is put on proper documentation. Extensive hardware expertise is
not necessary, so proportionate attention can be given to the design methodology.
3. Despite its apparent simplicity, the problem allows plenty of alternative solutions and should be a
motivating and educating exercise. Demonstration of a properly functioning system and sufficient
documentation is proof of a completed assignment
4. Term projects are projects that a group student or might take through from initial specification to
implementation. The project deliverables include
Projects
:
 Documentation including
o A problem statement
o A requirements document
 A Requirements Analysis Document.
 A System Requirements Specification.
 A Software Requirements Specification.
 A design document
o A Software Design Description and a System Design Document.
 A test specification.
 Manuals/guides for
o Users and associated help frames
o Programmers
o Administrators (installation instructions)
 A project plan and schedule setting out milestones, resource usage and estimated costs.
 A quality plan setting out quality assurance procedures
 An implementation.
