4. School or Study? I assume you can read a web page... –For pretty correct and almost up to date information... Meanwhile... What is dSoftArk really about? AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen4

5. AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen5 There Will Be Code

6. Complex constructions Two examples... AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen6

7. The question is then... How best to get from nothing to something? AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen7

8. Software Engineering? Best way:BuildingorGrowing AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen8

9. Parameters Consider: –Time span before useful –Revenue generation –Risk –Time before misunderstandings are detected AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen9

12. StarCraft II More than 4.5 mio sold copies Large e-sports community –DreamHack: Over 100.000 live streams during the final Question: How would you like –You are key programmer –During e-sport final, the game crashes due to your bug? My own experience –”Do not worry, the planes have fuel for another two hours...” AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen12

13. dSoftArk Software –Flexible configurable –Reliable it works! –Agile development software is reliably grown –Patterns The book ! –You will need it –Even after graduating! AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen13

14. Learning and Teaching... You learn when –You are exitedbut not scared! –You are challengedbut not overwhelmed! –You feel like a successnot a failure! –You extend knowledge and skillsfrom what they are Thus –Moving from 10 to 12is great! –Moving from 00 to 4is great! –Moving from 00 to 12is probably not possible! Morale:I and TAs should encourage and help, not intimidate, discourage nor scare you! AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen14

At the dSoftArk exam you will be asked to read and write code! Morale: Code and reflect the next 10 weeks! AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen15

16. The scary exam again... If you aim for industrial software development... –You should strive to do well in dSoftArk If you aim for research in security, algorithms, physics, or for management... –You will want just to pass the exam I aim to produce ”How to get 02 in dSoftArk”... AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen16

17. Tradition: Emperical Evidence No QEDs – sorry! dSoftArk techniques and industry –These techniques are in use or the companies work to introduce them! –All tools are industrial strenghts First scientific result showing C++ is better than C appeared in year –? AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen17

18. Summary We are going to build complex systems that are flexible and reliable We hypothesize this is best made in an evoluationary way –Grow flexible, testable, software –Learn as we go, prepare to get wiser –Agile manifesto We need production quality tools to do so –JUnit, Ant, Subversion, IDEs,... –Start right away... AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen18

19. Summary Your learning will –Resemble industrial strength development Long term maintenance (> 1 week!) Customer requirements driven Focused on one single project Read the intro page about the mandatory project!!! AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen19

20. Summary I love strategy games –Mandatory Project: Tribute to the classic... AU CSHenrik Bærbak Christensen20
