2. Software libraries and frameworks
3. Antipatterns in software engineering
4. Model-driven software engineering
5. Software product line engineering
6. Safety
7. Information security
8. Testability
Software architectures and their trade-offs
1. Introduction to distributed systems and middleware
2. Database-centric architectures
3. Message-oriented architectures
4. Object-oriented architectures
5. Component-based architectures
6. Service-oriented architectures
From source code to physical deployment
1. Introduction and historical perspective
2. Version control
3. Continuous integration
4. Continuous deployment
5. Virtual machines and containers
6. Software architectures for the cloud

Because students in Automotive Software Engineering have a different curriculum, the number of ECTS credits and thus the scope of the lecture and the exam differentiates as follows:

Module no	Studies	ECTS	Scope of the exam
IN2126	Masters in automotive software engineering before 2016	6	Chapter 1, 2, and 3
IN2309	Other	8	Everything that is covered in the lecture

Assessment Method / Exam

There will be a written exam at the end of the lecture
- Date - tba
- Time - tba
- Duration
  - IN2039 - 100 minutes (100 points)
  - IN2126 - 75 minutes (75 points)
- Location - tba
Students must register for the exam in TUM Online
Language of examination – English only
Closed-book exam
- English dictionary is allowed

Prerequisites

Attendandce to the lecture "Introduction to Software Engineering (IN0006)".

Intended Learning Outcomes

Appreciate software engineering:
- Build complex software systems in the context of frequent change
Understand
- how quality attributes affect the software architecture and conversely, how architectures influence these attributes in different domains
- why there is a need to make quality trade-offs while considering different software architectures including component-based and service-oriented architectures
- how to efficiently deliver the developed software system to the stakeholders
Be able to apply
- modeling techniques
- system analysis and design by considering quality trade-offs
- patterns, guidelines, and best-practices in software engineering
- tools for system configuration, integration, and deployment
