This paper describes how the author integrates work culture issues into his undergraduate course in Software Engineering. This is a required course for all Computer Science majors in our program. At issue is how work culture impacts upon the quality of the products being created by Software Engineers. The course addresses work culture concerns such as: What kinds of work culture issues arise during...
Computers have become a very important part of our society. Most operations done in industrial, commercial, military, educational and sanitary areas (among others) would not work properly without the use of computing. As society is becoming ever more dependent on computers, we are also becoming increasingly vulnerable due to the widespread misuse of them. The development of IT ethics, along with the...
In this paper, we describe a new computer science course, CSC115, that fulfills a general education scientific analysis requirement at the College of Staten Island of CUNY. This course is an introduction to fundamental scientific concepts in computers and technology, including information representation, development and application of algorithms, network and communication principles, and critical...
With the advent of the Internet and the World Wide Web, the focus on securing information has become a topic of increasing importance. To ensure the security of information in a society of e-commerce, e-business, and e-sharing it is essential for graduates of computer science departments to be trained in the fundamentals of information security and to gain hands-on experience with security tools....
Software systems continue to become more complex. However, with this increased complexity, also comes an increased chance of malicious attacks resulting in system failures. Since 1988 statistics indicate that corresponding to the phenomenal growth of the Internet, the number of security incidents reported to the Computer Emergency Response Team has increased by 498%, and the number of Internet sites...
For the past 20 years, Seattle University's Master of Software Engineering program has incorporated industry sponsored projects into its capstone course sequence. Starting in 2005 the program was expanded to leverage projects that would cut across the themes presented in various courses to enable students to experience continuity and a common pedagogical application in various topics. The projects...
Agile processes play an important role in the authorpsilas undergraduate course in software engineering. The course is a required course for undergraduate majors in Computer Science. Agile processes, like eXtreme Programming (XP), have been criticized for not providing a good framework for building secure software. The course begins by covering what some people have called ldquothe warrdquo between...
