Assignment
Write a 1-page summary for each topic listed below
1. Scripting techniques:
In this unit, you shall identify and the key scripting languages used for web scripting, server-side scripting and operating system scripting.
Scripting languages came about largely because of the development of the Internet as a communications tool. JavaScript, PHP, and Python are examples of scripting languages.
Show different examples by writing, debugging and testing all three types of scripts that include selection, repetition and parameter passing using for loop, while loop, do while loop, for each, switch case, function, and array statement.
2. Overview of programming languages:
In this unit, you shall compare and contrast programming paradigms, and language features by exploring the differences among the structured, object-oriented, functional, and declarative programming paradigms. Compare compiled program and an interpretative program models, describe the benefits and weaknesses associated with using a virtual machine, and give an example where an application language and a scripting language would be more appropriate.
3. Intersystem communications:
In this unit, you shall review the various means of intersystem communications and define the role of DCOM, CORBA, and RMI in distributed processing. Also, explain how web services are used to integrate disparate applications in an organization, and the roles of the WSDL, SOAP, and UDDI architectures in creating and using web services.
4. Code Reuse and software development:
In this unit, you shall explain issues dealing with code reuse vs. writing from scratch, as well as, specify the benefits of version control also known as software version control and source control. Enumerate and explain issues that should be considered when deciding whether to create new software or adapt existing software to solve a problem. Explore some of the latest revision control software used when documenting and developing software ( Local only revision control, client-server, and distributed version control software) such as SVN, Git, Mercurial, CVS, and Subversion.
5. Integrative Coding:
In this unit, you shall identify and discuss the importance commonly used design patterns and programming concepts and explain the motivation for using each of the following design patterns: MVC, singleton, factory method, façade, proxy, decorator, and observer. Similarly, discuss what a programming interface is and why it is important to programming and give an example of where the use of a programming interface simplified the development of a system.
6. Computer networking:
In this unit, you shall explore the general computer networking, the internet, the TCP/IP model, the wireless and mobile networks, the computer networks security and the network management. Investigate the transport layer services of the Open Systems Interconnect model and the fundamental principles of network routing. Investigate LAN technology associated protocols, and Computer Network Security such as cryptography, authentication, message integrity, firewalls and intrusion detection systems.
7. Wireless Technologies and wireless devices:
In this unit, you shall discuss wireless technologies and issues by exploring wireless technologies, their architectures and standards. Explain the principles of mobile and wireless networks such as Wireless Local Area Networks, Wireless Personal Area Networks, Cellular wide area network, Satellite network. Explore Bluetooth technology and communication, Bluetooth Sensors and wireless wearable computing devices. Compare Bluetooth to Zigbee to NFC.
8. Mobile Software Development Platforms and Environment:
In this unit, you shall discuss the different mobile development platforms and environments. Explore the development cycle for mobile devices including building, testing, and deployment. Compare and contrast mobile platforms, their tools, and the development process for Android, Apple iOS, and Windows Phone 7 mobile devices
9. Cloud Computing and Virtualization:
Cloud computing is an on demand Internet-based computing that provides ubiquitous shared processing resources (e.g. network, server, storage and service) and data to computers and other devices. The shared pool of configurable computing resources can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort.
• What is the cloud?
• Impact of Cloud Computing on individual consumers and Businesses
10. Cyber Security and Ethical Hacking:
In this unit, explore the different types of security, encryption and hacking. Because of such vast growth in technology today, security becomes more important, and our personal information becomes more vulnerable. Entertain the following questions and topics:
• What is cyber security?
• Types of attacks/threats
• Elements of Cyber Security
11. Database Types and database Management:
Discuss the different database types and database management systems
Data mining is a task used to discover unknown rules, patterns and relationships hidden in vast amount of raw data that is available as datasets stored in databases. Machine learning is the study of methods and algorithms that learn and improve their performance with experience. Few machine learning algorithms and statistical approaches have been applied in industrial, financial, and medical applications. There are many data mining techniques available for getting the important data from the large amount of data set.
