ITC543 Enterprise Design Patterns (8)

Abstract

Enterprise applications with complex data storage issues and user interfaces need to be well designed to be robust, reliable and maintainable. This subject provides students with an opportunity to learn about design patterns in enterprise applications and requirements. This includes in-depth knowledge and analysis of classic (Gang of Four) and modern design patterns from the application design perspective. More specifically, the subject takes the design patterns study to a level where software designers decide how to identify and use a proper design pattern for their specific application. It enables the students to use unified modern language to analyse and compare different design patterns. The subject places emphasis upon the patterns used by .NET database, web and user interface frameworks.
