SEG4110: Advanced Software Design and Reengineering

This page contains general information about the course SEG4110 (Fall 2011), taught by Prof. Tim Lethbridge.. I have taught this course about 17 times since 1992. It formerly was offered under codes SEG4210, SEG3110 and CSI4116.

Note that some details in this site may still refer to the 2010 version, or the course code SEG4210.
