Aims
Profound study on the theory and concepts of object oriented programming. Improvement of the ability of object oriented design, using patterns. Applying the Java programming language for applications containing design patterns.
Content
1. Introduction to object oriented programming.
2. Introduction to the Java programming language.
3. Object oriented programming in Java.
4. The concept of the design pattern.
5. A case study.
6. Creational design patterns (Abstract Factory, Builder, Factory Method, Prototype, Singleton).
7. Structural design patterns (Adapter, Bridge, Composite, Decorator).
8. Structural design patterns (Façade, Flyweight, Proxy).
9. Behavioral design patterns (Chain of Responsibility, Command, Interpreter, Iterator).
10. Behavioral design patterns (Mediator, Memento, Observer).
11. Behavioral design patterns (State, Strategy, Template Method, Visitor).
12. Using creational patterns in Java.
13. Using structural patterns in Java.
14. Using behavioral patterns in Java.

Assessment
The final grade is determined by the performance of the students on the following subjects:
G1: Participation in class discussion (course and seminar) = 25%
G2: Project (to be finished on week 14) = 25%
G3: Practical exam = 25%
G3: Written exam = 25%
The final grade: GF = (G1+G2+G3+G4)/4.
To enter into the written examination is necessary to have: G1>=5, G2>=5 and G3>=5. The course is completed successfully if all the grades are >= 5.
