Taught Courses

 

This course mainly intends to provide an introduction to the information systems development process, that includes an overview of the system analysis, design and implementation techniques. One of the various objectives of this course is to develop a real world information system. Also this course aims to provide the necessary background and sharpen the skills related to planning and conducting the systems analysis process. There will be various practical activities related to the development process of the information systems as planning, data gathering and analysis, conducting feasibility study, creating different standard diagrams and models as data flow diagrams, designing databases, designing proper user interfaces, interviewing managers and system users, performing some mini reverse engineering projects, and others. To gain the maximum value of the course there will be groups working on cases regularly and provide standard and structured reports.

This course intends to define what might quality mean, what definitions there are for it and how they are used. Depending on the purpose and perspective the course provides a practical introduction to the field of quality, the history behind it, the main contributors, the main standards, quality awards, statistical tools used to measure different variables or attributes to control the performance, what might be included in a quality plan, how to improve the quality, and how to assure it.

Project includes theoretical and practical aspects in Computer Information Systems, related to the current problems and applications in IT, Research oriented, technical report, and presentation. Weekly practice in the lab.

[5402252] (Business Processes and ERP Systems) This course focuses on specific applications of electronic systems and how they serve the different business processes. The students will have a holistic view of the end-to-end integrated business processes with more focus on manufacturing organizations. It will also give a solid background in modern process-centric enterprise systems and their capabilities: computer aided manufacturing (CAM), computer aided design (CAD), material requirements planning (MRP), master production schedule (MPS), capacity requirements planning (MRP), production activity control (PAC), computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) and flexible manufacturing systems (FMS). However, students are expected to apply the knowledge and skills in this area through weekly practice in the lab.

Background: Binary numbering system: representing information in digital systems, binary codes; Boolean Algebra: logic operations, corresponding logic diagrams, logic gates, charactersittics of integrated circuites; simplification of Boolean expression; Algebraic simplification, Karnaugh Map (map mthod); Combinational Circuites & Sequential Circuits: Analysis, Design; Basic components of Digital Systems: Address, Code Converters, Decoders, Encoders, Flip-Flops. Objectives: The main objective of digital logic course is to introduce the basic treatment of digital circuites and fundamental concepts used in their design

This course is an introduction to algorithms theory, it intends to provide an understanding of the main concepts used in defining, analyzing and designing computer algorithms. The course activities and materials are to give an overview of the techniques used, mathematical proofs, testing methods, different types of computer algorithms used to solve different types of problems, and mostly how to be able to recognize and represent the algorithms according to specific criteria and cost factors.
