Course Goals (cont)

Introduce you to:
  • building software systems from components
  • treating software as an object of experimental study
Develop skills in:
  • using software development tools (e.g. config, make, gprof)
  • building reliable, efficient, maintainable, portable software
Ultimately: get you to the point where you could build some software, put it on SourceForge, have people use it and have it rated well.
