Scope
The Canadian Conference on Computer
and Software Engineering Education (C3SEE) is an annual
forum to
discuss concerns related to the growth of Computer and
Software Engineering. Many universities have established
accredited Computer Engineering (CTE) and Software
Engineering (SWE) programs within the departments of
Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). The pertinent
educational and pedagogical issues related to the expansion
and improvement of this area, particularly in SWE programs
and their relationship to the existing programs in both the
ECE and computer science (CS) departments ought to be
addressed.
C3SEE’04
welcomes participation from Electrical and Computer
Engineering and Computer Science faculty members from
Canadian universities. The National committee and program
committee of C3SEE’04 would like to encourage each ECE
department and all interested CS departments in Canada to
send at least one representative to this important event.
The 2004 Canadian Conference on Computer and Software
Engineering Education, C3SEE’04, calls for papers on
computer and software engineering education development in
Canadian universities. Original papers are invited, in
English or French, including but not limited to the
following topics:
·
Software Engineering
as a Profession
- Formation of the scope of SWE
- Requirements from academic, national, and professional
perspectives
·
New Development in
Software Engineering Education
- Establishment of undergraduate programs in engineering or
non-engineering departments
- The role of computer science in software engineering
education
- Architecture of software engineering curricula
- Foundations of software engineering
- Teaching methods (lectures, laboratories, tools,
resources, funding)
- Newly developed courses
·
New Development in
CTE Education
- Teaching methods (laboratory design, tools, resources,
funding)
- Simulation versus hardware laboratories
- Embedded systems
- Real-time systems
- Computer networks and the web
- Systems design
·
Graduate Programs
and Research in CTE and SWE
