Type Name Author ISBN URL Additional information Examination material
Other literature   Software engineering standards, 29110 series   ISO/IEC       The students are advised to download and study the standards ISO/IEC 29110-1 and 29110-5-1-1 in advance because these models are applied in the implementation of the laboratory projects.   No   
Other literature           The course materials of courses SGN-57007, SGN-57207 and SGN-57407   No   
Other online content   Video about the 29110 standards   Prof. Claude Y. Laporte       The Public Site of the ISO Working Group Mandated to Develop ISO/IEC 29110 Standards and Guides for Very Small Entities contains a video which helps to understand the idea of these standards.   No

Additional information about prerequisites
The laboratory assignments are based on the contents of the courses BMT-57106 and BMT-57407 and the passing of these courses before this course is highly recommended. (It is possible to participate this course alongside BMT-57407 as they partly overlap in time.) The assignments include programming which means that the students should be able to program using a programming language such as Python, C++ or Java. Those students that have no programming skills should self-learn the skills before the course, for example, from the following materials: https://www.python.org/about/gettingstarted/ https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/ https://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/
