The course illustrates the main topics of Object Oriented Programming by using the Java language. Advanced topics as multithreading will be connsidered. UML language will be used as a tool for design. |
|
Programming basics in any language. |
|
The student will be able to develop programs following the Object Oriented Paradigm concepts. Advanced topics as multithreading in Java will be considered as well. UML is used to help the design phase. |
