|
At the completion of this course, the students must:
• have systematic knowledge on model-driven software processes • know basic elements of SysML, BPMN, XPDL modeling languages • know basic patterns used in the system analysis phase • know basic patterns used in modeling the behavior of a system • know some tools for modeling and model transformation |

| Assessment |
|
Grading activities are as follows:
• modeling project (1) (25%) • implementation project (2) (25%) • written mid-term exam (20%) • written final exam (30%) The final grade is computed as an weighted average of the individual marks obtained at the above activities (weights are given in parentheses). |
