Assignments

Each assignment focuses on a typical application but with gradually "enhancements" that may imply redesign or reimplementation of parts of the application. The goal is to learn how to create a clever component-oriented design from the beginning, with simplicity, adaptability and extensibility in mind. The changes to the initial design and to the actual implementation should be minimal as new requirements are added to the application. From a student perspective each assignment can be seen as a group of succesive assignments on the same topic.

Assignment 1 (4 parts)
