CPSC 544 (Section 70) AMSE Advanced Software Process Course Syllabus Fall 2019 [Version: 2019-08-25] Course Description: Course Title: CPSC 544 Advanced Software Process (Section 70) AMSE Classroom: EC-024A Class hours: R 1:00pm-3:45pm Instructor: Chang-Hyun Jo, Ph.D., Professor Office: CS 425 Office Hours: posted on: http://jo.ecs.fullerton.edu Tel: 657-278-7255 Email: cjo @ fullerton . edu Web: http://my.fullerton.edu (for class) http://jo.ecs.fullerton.edu (for public) Course Objective and Learning Goals: This course provides practical guidance for improving the software development and maintenance process. We focus on understanding and managing the software process because this is where software organizations encounter the most serious problems. In the class, students will learn how to establish an effective software process for an organization, and how to make the existing process better. Prerequisites: CPSC 362 Foundations of Software Engineering or equivalent work experience Textbooks: To learn basic principles of software processes, we use the following textbook: mainly covered in lectures.  Humphrey, Watts S. Managing the Software Process, Addison Wesley, 1989. (29th Printing, 2003) (ISBN-10: 0-201-18095-2) (ISBN-13: 978-020-1180954).  (Somewhat old, but ‘must-know’ and ‘basic’ traditional practices to understand basic ideas/terminologies/skills used in the field)  Exam coverage for the textbook: all chapters covered in class.  You will learn basic principles via lectures/textbooks, and you will exercise current practices via homework/direct-references.  Detailed HW Outlines will be provided separately. References (Direct): To practice current software processes, the followings are directly used in homework (also covered in the exams). (Somewhat radical, but ‘new/current’ practices used in the field)  Exam coverage for direct references: Programming details will not be covered in the exams – only basic ideas to do your HW will be covered in the exam. However, details for Agile processes (Scrum/XP as much as you need to know in order to do HWs properly) and process models (ISO 12207/15504 or CMMI/SCAMPI) will be covered in the exams (only as much as you need to know to do HWs properly).

Academic Honesty and Penalty for Academic Dishonesty With an exception of a team project, students are expected to do their course-work individually and be sole authors of their papers. A grade of "F" will be assigned in the course if the academic dishonesty occurs (see the quote below): ACADEMIC DISHONESTY The following is taken from the University Rules (UPS 300.021): "Academic dishonesty includes such things as cheating, inventing false information or citation, plagiarism, and helping someone to commit an act of academic dishonesty. It usually involves an attempt by a student to show possession of a level of knowledge or skill, which he/she in fact does not possess. Cheating is defined as the act of obtaining or attempting to obtain credit for work by the use of any dishonest, deceptive, fraudulent, or unauthorized means. Examples of cheating include, but are not limited to, the following: using notes or aids or help of other students on tests and examinations in ways other than those expressly permitted by the instructor, plagiarism as defined below, tampering with grading procedures, and collaborating with other on any assignment where such collaboration is expressly forbidden by an instructor. Violation of this prohibition of collaboration shall be deemed on offense for the person or persons collaborating on the work, in addition to the person submitting the work. Plagiarism is defined as the act of taking the work of another and offering it as one's own without giving credit to that source. When sources are used in a paper, acknowledgment of the original author or source must be made through appropriate references and, if directly quoted, quotation marks or indentations must be used"
