Course abstract
The aim of the study course is to learn web system development methods and technologies. Different web systems modelling and research methods tools are discussed. Student acquires one of the web systems' development methodologies - Object-oriented Hypermedia Design Methodology (OOHDM). Part of the course is devoted to the Web services and technologies supporting development of modern distributed Web system.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
As a result of the study course students:
• knows the methods and technologies of developing WEB systems;
• knows how to choose a suitable WEB system development method for the project;
• is able to independently realize the chosen method of WEB system development.
