Module Description:
Detailed study of the engineering methods and technologies for building highly interactive web sites and portals for e-commerce and other web-based applications. Engineering principles for building web sites that exhibit high reliability, usability, security, availability, scalability and maintainability are presented. Methods such as client-server programming, component-based software development, middleware, and reusable components are covered. Student will learn technologies such as HTML, JavaScript and XML. A development platform (e.g. ASP.Net or Java or PhP ) is covered by the course and used by students to develop a large web application in phases. Employing analysis and design techniques and HCI concepts are important issues in this project.
