Barred Combinations None Description for 2021/22 This module provides a deeper understanding of object-oriented programming, and to the concept of parallelism and concurrent programming, using Java as a working language. Aims To provide a deeper understanding of object-oriented programming, and to the concept of parallelism and concurrent programming. Intended Learning Outcomes apply object-oriented concepts in Java making use of reference-based data structures and Java Collections: 1 1 1 1 apply the concepts of parallelism and concurrency, and the fundamental issues that need to be addressed as a result of their application: design correct and efficient programs that use concurrent threads: apply the concepts and techniques covered above to different applications, such as graphical programming and distributed computing: Study hours 20 hours lectures 20 hours practicals 40 hours assessment preparation 70 hours private study School Rules CSC-20037 Programming II - Data Structures and Algorithms (or equivalent experience). Description of Module Assessment 1: Coursework weighted 100% Programming assignment and accompanying technical summary Apply appropriate concepts and techniques to create Java programming applications. The programming applications require selection, design and use of advanced programming constructs seen during the module. A program summary should describe and explain the principles and concepts used. This should take around 40 hours of preparation. Please note that for the 2021/22 Academic Year all programmes will be adapted to operate in accordance with a flexible, digital approach. This means that there will be some changes made to how modules are delivered and assessed. The latest information will be provided to you by your School in module handbooks. We endeavour to give you as much notice as possible of any changes and details about the circumstance in which changes are made to programmes can be found in the Student Agreement, available at: https://www.keele.ac.uk/student-terms-and-conditions/ Last Updated: 16 February 2022
