COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
COMP 201 Principles of Computer Organization (2 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Introduction to Computer Science & Object-Oriented Programming (COMP 111) and Discrete Mathematics (MATH 170).
This course is one of four courses that holistically explore the structure of computational systems. This course deals with the nature of computer hardware. The course will cover the structure of current computer systems at the level of functional organization, representation of data and programs, the design of the memory hierarchy, and the design of the I/O system. The course will introduce basic assembly language.
COMP 202 Principles of Computer Languages (2 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Principles of Computer Organization (COMP 201) and Discrete Mathematics (MATH 170).
This course covers the mapping of a high-level language onto the hardware. An introduction to language theory is provided by the use of regular expression grammars. The Church-Turing thesis is introduced as the foundational definition of computation.
COMP 203 Principles of Operating Systems (2 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Principles of Computer Organization (COMP 201).
This course is a continuation of the computing infrastructures sequence. The function and structure of operating systems is studied. In addition, the operating system layer provides the environment buffering the hardware from the software. An important topic in this course is the nature of concurrency and the problems that it poses: description of the functions and parts of an operating system; relationship of the operating system and underlying hardware; virtual memory; and concurrency and synchronization.
COMP 204 Principles of Computer Networks (2 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Introduction to Computer Science and Object- Oriented Programming (COMP 111) OR Business Programming Concepts (ITEC 136) OR any structured programming course.
This course serves as an introduction to the function, design, administration, and implementation of computer networks. Topics include network infrastructure, architecture, protocols, applications, and the OSI networking model.
COMP 205 Survey of Computer Languages (4 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Introduction to Web Authoring (COMP 107) and Object-Oriented Data Structures & Algorithms I (COMP 121).
This course provides an overview of programming language concepts and practice with several languages. Programming languages are compared using language paradigms, parameter passage techniques, scoping, block structure, and other language features. Functional programming languages, scripting languages, and .Net are used as practical examples.
COMP 281 Database Management Systems (4 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): College Algebra (MATH 160), Introduction to Databases (COMP 108) and Introduction to Computer Science & Object-Oriented Programming (COMP 111) or Computer Science I (COMP 110) or Business Applications Programming (COMP/ITEC 235) or Business Applications Programming I (ITEC 136). Not open to students with credit for COMP/ITEC/ MIS 380 or to students with credit for ITEC/MIS 281.
This course covers fundamental concepts necessary for the design, use, implementation and administration of database systems. The course will stress the fundamentals of database modeling and design, the languages and facilities provided by database management systems, and some techniques for implementing and administering database systems.
COMP 294 Computer Science Practicum I (2 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Object-Oriented Data Structures & Algorithms I (COMP 121).
This is the first practicum course in the Computer Science program. It provides experience in an on-going software development project. A student at this level will be given an assignment in a team similar to that of a new hire in industry. The software development project will require the student to apply industry best practices in completing an assignment for the project.
COMP 311 Object-Oriented Data Structures & Algorithms II (4 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Object-Oriented Data Structures & Algorithms I (COMP 121) and Discrete Mathematics (MATH 170). Not open to students with credit for Algorithm Analysis (COMP 319).
This course is the third of four courses using the object-oriented approach to software construction. The student learns and reflects on non-linear data structures, recursive algorithms, algorithm efficiency, and design patterns. To support the concepts and principles of software construction, the student will design, code, test, debug, and document programs using the Java programming language. Implementation and analysis of sets, maps, balanced binary search trees, heaps, hashing and hash tables, graphs and graph algorithms, and efficient sorting algorithms are addressed.
COMP 321 Application Server Programming (4 cr. hrs.)
Prerequisite(s): Database Management Systems (COMP/ITEC/ MIS 281 or COMP/ITEC/MIS 380), Object-Oriented Data Structures & Algorithms II (COMP 311) and Survey of Computer Languages (COMP 205) or Web Design & Implementation (WEBD 234). Not open to students with credit for COMP/DCOM 345.
This course provides an introduction to server-based programming using an object-oriented approach. The student learns and reflects on two- and three-tier software architectures, separation of responsibility, design patterns, and web frameworks. To support the concepts and principles of server-based software construction, the student will design, code, test, debug, and document programs using the Java programming language. Swing-based GUI clients, XHTML clients, XML, JDBC, Java Server Pages and Java Servlets, are used as the implementation mechanisms for Model 1 and Model 2 Web architectures.
