Course Description
Pre-Requisites: COMP 232 or COEN 231; COMP 249 or BCEE 231.
• Design:
Comp 352 – Winter 2021 Course Outline – Page 1
– Critique/evaluate many possible diverse solutions and use techniques to evaluate different solutions with sound arguments related to the problems’ requirements and constraints. Demonstrate thinking outside the box to create innovative solutions.
– Develop a system architecture adapted to the systems application context and its
requirements and constraints. Development and specification of internal and external software interfaces at different modularity levels. Describe a solution that presents enough details for implementation.
– Write code according to design. Validate implemented systems against system requirements, specifications and constraints, as well as interface specifications.
• Use of Engineering tools: Demonstrate appropriate operational use of tools (e.g., algorithms, abstract data types, data structures, asymptotic complexity analysis) for specific tasks in a laboratory environment.
• One credit represents, for an average student, a minimum of 45 hours of workload spread across the various academic activities (Source: Article 16.1.2 of the Undergraduate Calendar.) For an average student, this suggests a minimum of 135 hours of workload for a 3-credit course, including the time spent in lectures, tutorials, laboratories, examinations, and personal and team work.
3. Course Materials
Textbook M.T. Goodrich, R. Tamassia, Michael H. Goldwasser. Data Structures and Algorithms in Java, 6th edition. John Wiley & Sons, 2014. ISBN 978-1-118-77133-4. (Note: 5th edition is ok.)
The book is available at the bookstore or can be rented as eTextbook.
Textbook/eTextbook URL: http://ca.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd- EHEP002900.html
From the textbook we shall study these sections: 3.1 to 3.4, 4.1 to 4.3, 5.1 to 5.6, 6.1 to 6.2, 7.1 to 7.3, 8.1 to 8.4, 9.1 to 9.4, 10.1 to 10.3, 11.1 to 11.3, 12.1 to 12.4, 14.1 to 14.7, and 15.1 to 15.2. You also need to study chapters 1 and 2 that will not be covered in provided lectures.
Web Page Many resources for the course (slides, assignments, example programs, …) will be available online through Moodle; (available through the MyConcordia portal www.myconcordia.ca), or through the instructor’s website. Your instructor will inform you of the exact link to access the materials.
In specific, depending on your section, the lectures will either take place live over Zoom (where coverage of the material will take place during class time), or they will be pre-recorded. Your instructor will inform you about the way the class will be conducted. In case the lectures are pre- recorded, you will need to view these video lectures before class time. In such case, only discussions about the covered materials will take place during class time, where you will be able to get clarifications to any questions that you may have.
All tutorials will be available online over Moodle/Yuja (accessible from Moodle) as video lectures prior to tutorial time. You will need to view these videos before tutorial time. While the tutors may very well elaborate further on the materials discussed on the videos, you need to view these video recordings ahead of tutorial time.

4. Grading
Assignments Midterm Final
30% (7.5% x 4) 20%
50%
To pass the course, you must at least pass the assignments and the final exam. Usually, a score of 50% is required. There are no make-ups/alternates for missed exams or assignments.
There is no a priori fixed relationship between your total percentage scored and the final letter grade assigned.
Assignments: There will be 4 assignments, all of which will be available online. These assignments play a major role in your learning of the various topics covered in this course. To pass the course, you must pass the assignments’ component. Assignments must be submitted by the due date. No assignment will be accepted after the due date. More detailed information on assignments is provided with each assignment. Please read them carefully!
Midterm and Final exams: We will have a midterm and a final exam in this course. Both exams are online non proctored exams.
Midterm will be through Moodle/Cole depending on your section.
The final exam will be identical for both sections S and X through Concordia Online
Exam (COLE).
Additionally, you may be called for a follow-up oral exam afterwards. The formats of these two exams will be similar, and may include multiple choice questions, questions with detailed answers including problem solving question, and True/False questions requiring a short justification. The final exam will be identical for both sections.
While exams are online, where you will be able to consult any materials, class notes, textbook, etc., you are NOT allowed to contact anyone during the exam (whether offline or online). Violating this in any way or form will result (100%) in you being reported to the University, which may result in severe consequences.
In the event of extraordinary circumstances beyond the University’s control, the content and/or evaluation scheme in this course is subject to change.

8. Ethical Behavior
Plagiarism The most common offense under the Academic Code of Conduct is plagiarism which the Code defines as “the presentation of the work of another person as one’s own or without proper acknowledgement.”
This could be:
• material copied word for word from books, journals, internet sites, professors course notes, etc.
• material that is paraphrased but closely resembles the original source.
• the work of a fellow student, for example, an answer on a quiz, data for a lab report, a paper or
assignment completed by another student.
• a solution or Java code purchased through one of the many available sources.
Plagiarism does not refer to words alone; it can also refer to copying images, graphs, tables, and ideas. Presentation is not limited to written work. It also includes oral presentations, computer assignments and artistic works. Finally, if you translate the work of another person into French or English and do not cite the source, this is also plagiarism.
In Simple Words: Do not copy, paraphrase or translate anything from anywhere without saying where you obtained it!
