The course presents two programming paradigms: functional programming and logic programming. Most of the attention is given to functional programming, as more useful in practice. The importance of learning other programming paradigms cannot be underestimated: it helps students to look at problems from different viewpoints, to attempt different ways of problem decomposition, as well as to use more appropriate tools (eg. functional and logic programming languages) for some of the problems. Students learn the mathematical basics and underlying algorithmic model of functional and logic languages, thus understanding deeper relationship between mathematical models and programming languages and their semantics. Most importantly, they also get experience in practical functional programming using F# programming language, which gives them useful practical tool for many data processing tasks. The course is designed for students of the bachelor program “Software Engineering” at the Faculty of Computer Science, HSE.
The course introduces Internet of Things field of computer science and hardware implementation including terminology, basic concepts, various areas of its application and different approaches to building its software and using its hardware with different kinds of system on modules. Lecture topics include physics on electrical schemes and networking, different kinds of the things themselves, various fields of the things implementation, software needed to code the things behaviour and store the data including Internet of Things operating systems. During the practice classes students have a lot of assignments based on two hardware platforms: Arduino Uno and Raspberry Pi 3/4 with Arduino IDE and Android Studio for Android Things OS (or other Unix/Linux-based OS like Raspbian with its software) respectively. Then students are given another assignment which replaces the course exam. The assignment is a hardware-software project based on a simple network of the things and has a certain purpose (smart home, smart weather station, smart plant, smart lock etc.). The assignment is divided into two parts: the first part is hardware (with systems on module mentioned and various sensors, controls, LEDs etc.) and the second part is software (preferably mobile application) controlling the hardware. This course is practice oriented – more attention is given to practice, not lectures.
The course attendants should develop skills and understanding in: the design methodology for databases and verifying their structural correctness; implementing databases and applications software in the relational model as well as in map/reduce paradigm; using querying languages, primarily SQL, and other database supporting software; applying the theory behind various database models and query languages; implementing security and integrity policies relating to databases; working in group settings to design and implement database projects.
