Objectives

Currently, with the expansion of bandwidths in communications, applications in Web environments are at the level of desktop applications.

This course trains students in the programming of applications in client-server architectures based on the Internet. It studies the functioning of these types of architectures and also the tools necessary to develop large-scale applications in an agile and sustainable manner. It also describes different frameworks development tools for servers and MVC tools for clients and cloud.

During the course, a real application is developed and deployed in a hosting environment that allows the application to be visible from anywhere. You will also learn how hosting services work and how to register web domains.

  • Understands the needs of a web application and knows how to design information flows.
  • Know the main server programming languages.
  • Understand the MVC (model-view-controller) programming pattern.
  • Learn about agile web application development tools.
  • Knows how to develop a web application using a specific configuration.

Competencies

General skills

  • Combine scientific knowledge with technical skill and technological resources to deal with difficulties in professional practice.

Evaluation

The assessment is based on the development of exercises and problems, and includes an individual project and another in a group.

At the same time there is a partial test.

Action type Dates % of grade It is mandatory to approve (yes/no) Related learning outcome
Exercises done in class sessions the whole course 10% no R1, R2, R3, R4
Partial test the whole course 40% yes (with minimum grade) R1, R3
Project monitoring the whole course 10% yes all
Project development the whole course 40% yes all

The individual project consists of developing a web application to manage the UVic Sport Games. The data model is designed and the MVC of the application is developed jointly and each student creates their final application to which they give a personalized interface. The grade for each project is obtained with a co-evaluation system.

The team project consists of developing a comprehensive web application with a free theme.

If you do not achieve the minimum grade for the exam, you can retake it.

Methodology

The subject is mainly practical. The computer is always used in class. It includes:

  • Explanation of the theoretical content by the teacher
  • Practical demonstrations by the teacher
  • Guided individual exercise sessions
  • Projects with tutoring

To achieve the learning objectives, beyond class sessions, students must follow the subject and solve exercises and practices.
