Training new and effective: Software Architecture and Software Engineering Master

Training new and effective: Software Architecture and Master software EngineeringDie Fraunhofer Academy adds now their seminars in the software field for a three-to five-day course "software architecture", the first is from November 21 at the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE offered in Kaiserslautern. The three-day version costs 2,000 EUR, the five-day version is available for 3000 EUR. For more information visit www.academy.fraunhofer.de.

Simultaneously, the Fraunhofer Academy recorded with 21 participants, including two women, a new record in October started fourth year of part-time distance learning "Master Software Engineering for Embedded Systems", jointly organized by the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE in Kaiserslautern and the is responsible for TU Kaiserslautern.

Is "the multi-day seminar" software architecture offered in two variants; come to the three day blocks of "fundamentals", "design" and "evaluation" for those who want to go deeper, "tool-based modeling" and "tool-based assessment and reconstruction to Architectures". The seminar will be repeated on April 16, 2012th

"Architectures are," said Dr. Jens Knodel, a consultant and researcher at the Fraunhofer IESE, "the decisive factor for being successful in the development and evaluation of software systems to be. Architectures define blueprints of the properties, behavior and structure of the software. "

After the seminar, participants will use in their enterprise software architectures and pragmatic business information. The Fraunhofer-methodology, the researchers say, allow the participants to quickly find a practical introduction to the topic of architecture and define architectures independently after the seminar to use and evaluate. Architectures had no value in itself, but on clear cases of application specific. "In particular, we focus attention on the usage scenarios for architecture documentation: How to get from the architecture to something that can be used in the development and evaluation and help in daily practice"?

During the seminar, "" software architecture this year, Premiere, is the fourth year "Master Software Engineering for Embedded Systems" in early October launched successfully. At the moment, preparations are underway for the fifth year that will be announced in spring 2012 and launched in October 2012. The four-semester long course is aimed at (economic) computer scientists, engineers in the fields of mechanical engineering and electrical engineering and technicians in the field. But mathematicians and physicists who wish to enhance their qualifications in the field of software development can open up this program with new career paths. Participants must bring at least two years professional experience in software development. The distance learning program has been accredited since 2009 by the Accreditation Agency ASIIN to award the master's degree.
