CIS700

What are the prerequisites?

You should be a reasonably good programmer in some (any) language. We'll be doing some programming in two or three different languages, and we don't want to have to explain what a "loop" is.

What will the workload be?

As with all computer science courses, the workload will be moderately heavy. However, we are _not_ planning to squeeze a full 15-week semester's work into six weeks! We might try to squeeze in as much as 8 weeks' worth, though. :)

Who is teaching the course?

Dave Matuszek and Pat Palmer will co-teach the course. We may have other speakers.

What will the course cover?

An "emerging technology" is one that, in the admittedly limited purview of the instructors, has either recently become prominent, or is about to do so. As we lack perfect precognition, we reserve the right to change topics at the last minute.

Here are the currently planned topics:

  • Wikis (pmWiki)
  • Ruby
  • Rails
  • Ajax
  • Social Networking (Second Life)
