This course is located on the training and innovation projects line in the engineering program at the Universidad de los Andes. After the first semester experience in development projects with ExpoAndes, for a semester students will work on the definition and development of innovative projects with information technology. These projects have the ambition to be sustainable over time and internationally competitive.,English,- This dynamic must be reinforced with the knowledge and skills acquired in the second half of the engineering education. The activities of the students in the graduation project, which has a vocation of synthesis, can be a success factor for some of these projects started in this course, so they might be able to find a space in the business world and/or academic.

The goal of this course is to study the more important aspects that must be considered for choosing and maintaining the computational infrastructure for supporting the activities of a project or enterprise,English,- The main problems that are considered are: capacity planning, transactions security, performance evaluation and servers securing. Additionally, other topics related to the above mentioned problems are studied: concurrency, deadlocks, asynchronous programming, virtual memory, file systems, machine states, memory protection and virtual machines.

This course studies the persistence problem of huge amounts of shared data in transactional systems

Study the way of understanding a complex organizational structure in order to design a high level IT architecture that allows supporting business objects the best way possible. Such design must specify a project roadmap that allows the organization to move forward from its actual situation, or AS-IS, to the objective situation, or TO-BE. Each project must group a set of requirements.

To develop software design and software architecture abilities based on shared experienced of academic researchers and industrial practitioners documented as styles, patterns and tactics. Also the student will understand the impact of the technology choosen in the software architecture.

The purpose of the course for the student is to acquire practical experience through the development of a medium-sized project in groups of five students. For this, we use an iterative delivery process by stages, supported by computational tools.
