Description

Rich Application Development 302 focuses on building richly interactive line-of-business applications using modern design patterns to support n-tier architecture. It embraces modern frameworks and code libraries to expedite the design/development of rich interactive user interfaces. Connections with databases are supported through object-relational mapping techniques. Design patterns are introduced, including separation of concerns in the development of client-server line of business applications. The complexity of structure and scope of modern N-Tier business applications is examined with a view to managing such complexity in a team environment.

Learning Outcomes

On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;

1.

Evaluate and Implement Software Architecture Patterns

2.

Evaluate Styling & templating to produce rich user interfaces

3.

Examine and implement Testing strategies with Code Patterns

4.

Manage Code Complexity

Teaching and Learning Strategies

Teaching strategy will consist of introductory material delivered in a lecturing environment followed by presentation of practice in labs. The learner will then complete class excercises based on this theoretical and practical delivery in a PBL environment.

Module Assessment Strategies

Assessment is a mixture of in-lab practical tests and a mini-project. The mini-project will be completed in tandem with progress through the indicative syllabus. An end-of-module final practical in-lab examination will follow at module end. Formative assessments will be set throughout the module to provide prompt and clear feedback. Students will be encouraged to work as groups using a PBL approach to learning.

Repeat Assessments

Repeat assessment will consist of a Repeat terminal based open book exam

2011-11-18 Programming Entity Framework: Code First: Creating and Configuring Data Models from Your Classes O'Reilly Media

Take advantage of the Code First data modeling approach in ADO.NET Entity Framework, and learn how to build and configure a model based on existing classes in your business domain. With this concise book, youll work hands-on with examples to learn how Code First can create an in-memory model and database by default, and how you can exert more control over the model through further configuration.

Code First provides an alternative to the database first and model first approaches to the Entity Data Model. Learn the benefits of defining your model with code, whether youre working with an existing database or building one from scratch. If you work with Visual Studio and understand database management basics, this book is for you.

  • Learn exactly what Code First doesand does notenable you to do
  • Understand how property attributes, relationships, and database mappings are inferred from your classes by Code First
  • Use Data Annotations and the Fluent API to configure the Code First data model
  • Perform advanced techniques, such as controlling the database schema and overriding the default model caching

This book is a continuation of author Julia Lermans Programming Entity Framework, widely recognized as the leading book on the topic.
