Dear Member of the Computer Society Kenya Chapter
*,*


On behalf of the IEEE Kenya Section Executive Committee we would like to
extend a cordial invite to you for the above workshop to be held at the
Kenyatta University on the 30th – 31st August 2016 from 9am to 5pm.

The course is intended for lecturers and graduate students who plan to be
instructors in universities and colleges.


In support of engineering education at universities in Africa, the IEEE
supports visiting lecturers to deliver short courses at participating
African universities. Mr. Roozbeh Mehrdadi from the University of British
Columbia (UBC) has been invited to deliver short courses in the month of
August 2016.

Roozbeh has been working at UBC (in the Electrical and Computer Engineering
department) since 2000, where he has been advising and aiding professors
and students in their hands-on research, teaching and lab projects. Roozbeh
received his Master degree at UBC in 2005 in System on a Chip (SoC) design
and verification methods. He was employed as lecturer at UBC and taught
courses in Software Engineering, Operating Systems and Digital Design.


This workshop will cover topics related to

1.     Why Model and How to Model Complex Systems

2.     What is UML and what are its basic notations

3.     How to do requirement analysis and draw Use-Case diagrams and Why

4.     How to capture communication in Sequence Diagrams

5.     How to identify objects and their relationships

6.     How to extract Class Diagrams from Objects and their relations

7.     How to go from Class Diagrams to coding


In each lecture, the topics will be presented via examples and interactive
problem solving. By the end of the workshop, the participants could
translate the UML models to C++ code.

Prerequisites: Previous software development experience with large projects
is helpful


If you would like to participate please write to me hmuhindi at ieee.org by
1pm Monday 29th August to be included in the program.
