Course contents

The course is structured in three modules

• The first one, Principles and Methods", provides an introduction about the basic aspects that concern the engineering of modern software systems, focusing in particular on team organization and workflow, discussing methodological aspects and introducing supporting tools.
• The second and third modules focus on two broad topics that are paramount in the modern digital age, namely the engineering of distributed systems and enterprise applications" and the engineering of intelligent systems.
