• describe a system using suitable models,
• recognize and correct syntactic and semantic errors in a model,
• build models based on textual descriptions of the problem domain,
• analyze and criticize models of a system,

All necessary information will be provided in the TUWEL-course of this lecture.
All theoretical content is taught via lecture videos. There are also videos in which the practical solution of examples is demonstrated.
You have to apply for the course and for one of the lab groups.
Both registrations are mandatory to attend the course!
Note: There are 9 assignments with 6 exercises each. For each lecture there will be a dedicated lab lesson. Before each lesson you have to mark in TUWEL which exercises you have solved and you can therefore present in the lab. You have to solve at least 45 exercises. Further information will be provided in the prediscussion / first lecture.
You have to present your solved exercises in your designated lab group. It is not possible to present your assignments in another lab group to which you are not assigned to!
Please note: Depending on the currently required Covid measures, the tests and lab sessions might be online via Tuwel instead of in the lecture hall.
The preliminary meeting will be recorded.

The UML models in the exercise sheets and test specifications are created with the Enterprise Architect from Sparx Systems (www.sparxsystems.com). Students can get an education license for the software - more information on this in the Tuwel course.
At the beginning of the term, as a precondition to attend the course, the entry-test in TUWEL has to be passed until March 5th, 2024. In order to pass the course successfully it is necessary to solve at least 45 of 54 assigned examples and to be able to present them during the lab. Furthermore there will be three mandatory written exams. One of the tests may be repeated in June. Depending on the currently required Covid measures, the tests might be postponed to do them in the lecture hall later in the semester or they will be held online if necessary. Lab sessions might also be online via Tuwel instead of in the lecture hall.
