Description
Crucial characteristics and dynamics associated with the design and implementation of mainframe computer applications typologies prevalent in business settings. The impact of such applications on business processes is analyzed and contrasted with that of systems based on alternative hardware software platforms. Practical and ethical issues affecting applications development in these environments are highlighted, and case studies of actual systems are evaluated. Students are required, as members of project teams, to design, code, and test prototype applications that incorporate modular design techniques, report generation, data code manipulation, array processing, sequential and non-sequential file management, utility functions, security concerns, command language considerations, and testing/debugging challenges.
