`
`The Module Description is a strict subset of this Syllabus Page.
`
`Aims
`
`The aims of this module are to:
`
`improve students’ programming skills generally, and develop students’ programming design and developmentskills to cope with large programs
`«
`« provide programming experience with more advanced but commonly used Java class libraries and other packages as appropriate
`«
`teach specific skills in databases, web programming and concurrency, and distributed computing
`
`Learning Outcomes
`
`On successful completion of this module, the student should be able to:
`
`« use Entity-Relationship diagrams to construct and explain conceptual models of databases, and then design tables for a relational database
`« write and explain SQL quenesfor a relational database
`e query and update a relational database from Java
`« explain the serviet model and structure, including the servlet lifecycle and application/session/request/page scope
`« configure, install and use servlet based web applications, implementing correct servlet request and response code, including himl form processing, session handling, database connectivity
`and security
`« explain and evaluate web application architecture and technologies
`« explain the concepts and issues of threads and synchronisation, including thread pools
`«
`implement, debug and test multithreaded programs with appropriate synchronisation, in a variety of contexts such as Swing, collection classes and network I/O mechanisms
`« explain and implement socket based communication
`«
`implement programmatic email sending
`« explain and use object serialisation and use RPC to interact with remote objects
`
`Teaching methods
`
`3 hrs/week lectures/tutorials, 2-3 hrs/week labs.
`
`Assessment
`
`« Sessional: 2 hour examination (80%), continuous assessment (20%).
`* Supplementary: By examination only.
